Uh oh, the new motor should be in by the time this comes around. Probably couldn't get permission to give it a run this year, but I'll probably come back just to watch. Had a good time last year, just to bad I never got any runs in after getting the special exception from Jason.

I will still extend that special exeption to you, I think last year I told you it was cool to give us a show at M9 since you couldn't at M8.

Just make sure that you e-mail me to remind me to tell the girls in the booth let you in without giving you a rough time.

While I am thinking of these things, I want to remind everyone that I am always wanting to ensure that this event stays fun for everyone, so I am always open to reasonable suggestions for this event. You can always e-mail me directly if you like.

Both!

I keep a list at the booth, and I also send out wristbands.

Just listen for the track to call up your class during eliminations. When they call the 12.50 and slower class up, that's your call.

Re: M9 - The 9th Annual Michigan GM Event - OFFICIAL Discussion Thread

Heres the important question. Never been to a REAL track before Up until now its been country roads with some custom setups that farm boys have made or an old runway that was once used for cropdusters in Charlotte. How many runs can I get in during the 4 hours of Test-n-Tune?

Then M9 is the best place to learn. If you need to ask a question, you should have no problem finding someone to help you out. It is a pretty cool and friendly event.

an old runway that was once used for cropdusters in Charlotte.
Out by the Crippen airport?

A lot. It is not hard to find yourslef making hot laps. There's tons of cars there, but not so many that you get one test run and you are done.
