SE Michigan Meet

[dipolley]

Well now that the weather is warm and we have had a chance to get settled comfortably into our Redlines, time for a meet. I know almost everyone has expressed an interest so Let's do it. First let's get a list going of who is in SE MI (below is what I know from other posts, I will update as nessesary.) Second, possible locations. I like the woodward idea, Jshaouni was the one that posted about the store. Thirdly we need a date. Preferably on a Friday or Saturday. I would think Saturday so that we have some daylight to have some fun in. Royal oak seems very central for us all. Alot of us are also in northern Macomb County. Utica may be another good location.

So sound off with ideas and interested parties. Lets do this ASAP. Maybe a going away party for Urban Monkey.(When does he leave?)

[alredline04]

Me too. There should be a poll of locations and times. That seems like it would be the easiest wasy to do it.

alredline04- Waterford,MI

I also have my first solo event next weekend MAY 8th. It is the season opener at DTE enrgy music theater. I dont have much competition in my class so far. just a 2000 Prelude type SH. I will be running D-stock. It would be cool to see some other redlines there. I am the only RL registered in the event so far

I'm in for attending. IS this an SCCA meet? Send me more info. If we can organize a meet fast enough will this location work as a rally point and then off to Gratiot or Woodward in the evening?

The meet sounds good. Either Gratiot or Woodward would be fine for me to meet up at. I'm back in Rochester for the summer now. I don't know of Jshaouni has been on here much since he initially said about meeting up at his shop. I have his IM, so I'll talk to him when I see that he's on. I'll be ready for a meet any weekend that it plans, but if we want Urban to be able to come, it will probably have to be next weekend.

Well those are the details. If anybody doesnt know DTE ill post a map. The a solo event works is that I will be running my heat which will be about 4 runs or so and then I have to work the rest of the heats. I dont have any details about when ill be running yet cause registration is still open. I am also registered for the second event at The Palce . You can find out all the information you want about any scca event in the country at www.myautoevents.com

It's not DTE Energy Music Center. It's Pine Knob. Always was always will be. Damn it. lol

Noted. If I can get my SCCA membership by then (which I doubt) I'm in. I missed the class last weekend at the Silver Dome. But this seems like a good idea. I'll be there one way or another.

[alredline04]

The events are open to spectators free of charge.
If you do end up competeing you will probably wanna run TDS ( street tire d-stock) I think.

[max_boost]

Friday or saturday would be best for me. I work 2-10 Sunday thru Thursday.

[urbanmonkeygod04]

I am DEFINITELY interested. And either this weekend or the next is fine, I had to push my move back by a week, so I'll be here until the 15th. Just let me know when you guys are good for it, I'm willing to go just about anywhere, so let's do it! Can't wait to meet all the guys from around here.

[dipolley]

OK so far the plan is as such. This is turning out to be an all day affair.

7:30 AM Those competeing in SCCA SOLO meet at DTE
9:30 AM First Car off the line
9:30 AM to Mid Afternoon, SCCA Meet. All spectators welcome to Join in and cheer on our competitors (alredline04). Spectating is FREE.

6:00 pm Dinner and meet. Location undecided. Someplace well known, centrally located, with a nice parking lot preferably. My Vote: Dave and Buster's in Utica. Good food and plenty of fun.

between 9 pm and 10:30 pm meet on either Grtaiot or Woodward.
If Gratiot. The location will be the South East corner of Gratiot and Frazo behind the CVS in the K-mart Parking lot.
If Woodward, Undecided.

10:30 to ?? Do your thing. Cruise, park, chat, get some good kills, or get your ass handed to you. Your choice. We all know this is Detroit, so anything could happen.

I am strongly encougage everyone interested in attending to voice somekind of opinion or give suggestions. I want this to be as fair and convinient to everyone interested.

Also I am building a spreadsheet of all MI members. So name (first name only and last initial) forum ID, email, make model and color, location, and current forum status (ie junior, memeber or senior). Those already posted I have most info except name. If you don't want to tell, then don't. Thanks in advance everyone
