[s-cars] //S Fest '04?

[Tim Radbourne]

Great idea ..... or we could just book MIS Michigan International
Speedway in Brooklyn MI.  We ought to find a weekend where there isn't a
Nascar event going on......  Room for 200,000 plus.  That would probably
be enough.... <grin>

Tim in MI

I too would love to test drive other cars, and I have got what I believe
is a GREAT idea of where to do it!

Michigan is very central to most members...

Let's have it in South Haven Michigan, there is a great local track it
is Gingerman Raceway, here is a linki:

http://www.gingermanraceway.com/

Not too far from Canada, ohio, indiana, Illinois, centrally located to
those in the east and west. If we plan it ahead early enough we may be
able to have a gathering at the race track. They routinely do carious
club events.

If the track isn't available we could meet at the Tire Rack in Indiana!
They have their own test track and routinely do auto cross events. Still
very centrally located...

Chris

Waiting to be told how much of a bad idea this is!
