Are you kidding me? I just checked the engineering maps and nothing's there! I went a couple years ago and had zero service too. Hmm...the maps must be completely out of date then. So i'll just two-way you guys when I get there then? I'll be using Navi on the Blackberry all the way there too.

Yea, I think the maps are out of date, they show no service at my parents house, but yet I get full signal, but when I get closer to the town I live in the signal gets worse. lol

.

Well I won't be staying at the hotel because i've got business to attend to on Sunday, however i'm hoping i'll be able to be there for the majority of the action!

I've already got my winter coat, scarf, gloves and hat packed in the car. I remember when I went 2 years ago, I couldn't even enjoy it. I clung onto any sense of warmth I could grasp in that hellish cold. The wind was the effing worst too.

Last i heard from woodtv (grand rapids nbc) they are saying no rain till LATE at night sat/into early morning sunday. Lookin good!

I really think ill prolly stick around for a few hours and be heading home by 7-8 ish sat. We shall see. Got enough alchohol in me for the weekend tonight i think.

According to weather.com...

stanton MI- currently 34 with dewpoint of 33, 98% humidity, high today of 54. 30% chance of rain today, 60% chance of rain tonight after 9:00. Radar shows very little rain currently, but satelite shows a wall of clouds coming across lake michigan.

I'd say there's a good chance we'll get some racing in and maybe have to shut it down early if there's any rain towards the end. :thumbs:

wewt.
See all of you soon :D
And freakin Hadji? I haven't seen him in 4ever!!!!

Yea we get to see the hadjmeister

.

Hehe yeah I'm coming! I would love to stay the night but someone switched my schedule and I have to work now...I am super mad. Hopefully the weather holds out! Just like Michigan meets though, you plan super ahead of time and something miniscule threatens to ruin the event/get together. But I'm staying optimistic!!

pictures please!!!!!!!!

im mad i couldnt do that awesome launch again!!!
r/t........1.781
1/4.......13.048 @ 105 MPH

then while driving home i got a check engine light, and my car wouldnt go past like 110, so luckily im getting a scantool monday. great to see everyone again!! i had balls of fun

^ Yeh I saw you run. I thought you were blackhillsxxx. I was thinking "why's he so slow" LoL. Turns out it was you w/ your ecotec.

I decided not to run this time. I ran back in the spring (15.4 :( ), and I probably will run again this next spring after my dynomax muffler and FFP UD pulley.

Well it was sure great to see everyone again! :D I know I don't get out to see you guys often enough. There where so many people there I knew and everyone parked in different places and racing and everything that it was hard to get around to see everyone. So if I didn't see you or didn't get a chance to say goodbye when we left, don't think I was avoiding you. ;)

Once it started getting really cold out and no one was running good times, Tom decided there wasn't much point to keep running, so we switched the wheels on his car and headed back early so we could both get home last night. We were both pretty tired anyway and we didn't have a place to stay overnight. Next time we all get together it won't be so cold out and I'll hang out longer (and I'll have my car with me next time). Anyway, it was fun and hopefully I'll see everyone at the next one. :)



btw, grats to Tom on his new PB.

Dude, I had so much fun!!

Nikki, Seth, Jason, Denise sorry I didn't get a chance to say bye! Me, Alex and Tom decided to take off together and I had to figure out a way to find them a gas station on my directions before they ran out of gas!

Alex--freeway...ruled!!

the charger and mustang didnt know what hit em, actually they did, they couldnt miss the spoiler

Yea it was fun. Thanks aaron.

Definitely FUN times!!! Congrats to everyone who did run good...Brandon your car is freakin fassssssst!!! haha...I'll have my pics uploaded 2morrow.

It was definitely nice seeing everyone again :D Whoever didn't stay at the hotel missed out on some times to remember haha. Lotsa drunkeness :p

Umm LOL...I dunno. I had the only GTP there...and the only *black* G6 there. I was on my like 6th beer, so I don't remember much later on at the track haha.

.

I know the Stang didn't know what hit him cause I passed him doing 125.

Charger was a complete fag. I'm glad he got ho'd out by that Semi getting onto US23 South

John you talked to nikki when you somehow managed to get lost in stanton and called me.

lol yeah that was me! I didn't know it was him tho...then when I was attempting to give him directions [sorry, again, too many beers hah], I didn't even notice it was you Dave until I started talkin to John...I was like 'woah, thats RBA' Lol, cuz I haven't seen you in 4ever!

Alex and i were just talkin about the first time i met all of you, at that meet at the end of the really muddy dirt road, mgac or whatever. Remember that? I totally forgot all about it, alex had to remind me. Scares me to wonder what has happened to those memory braincells.

Yep thats when I met you. It was like April 2003! I think haha. It was an "MGAC" meet at a country club lol Worst weather ever that day too hah. Yeah, I even remember that ish. I remember when I/we first met Alex :D Back in the day, I think he was like 15...hehe.

^ I saw that when I was on the return road ... you guys kinda stopped and didnt know what to do for a while.

Dont say that, makes me feel old!





But then all i have to do is look at your age and i feel better.

I just remember finally getting new wheels for my ga, and wanting them on for that 'meet', and to do so i had to drive from muskegon to wherever it was after an ice storm with my extremely non all season tires on the car and having several near death experiences.

I was 15!! i had to drive with my mom to adam's house. yea....i was a dedicated GA'er as a youngin'

It was good seeing everyone again! It was a lot of fun, I didn't get a PB again, but I had some better trap speeds, worse 60fts, and more 15.1s Damn it was hard to hook up.

John, the car you asked if it was turbo'd wasn't Nikki's. It was the silver G6, no Nikki's G6 GTP.

And there were 2 Nikki's there! ...is he talkin about your sister?
Oh and thx Tim for helping with "saving" me from the 'annoying drunk boy' lol
Seth kinda helped too...but then he shook up my 2 liter of 7up :(

7 and 7 bitches!

I had such a blast as always!!! It was great seeing everyone and yes the hotel drinking was the best, from what I remember! lol Jason and Nikki I can't believe we drank nearly that whole case of beer at the track :ec: haha Jason thanks for letting me drive the vette! Nikki you better send me the pics of me in it! And all the rest as well!

I might try and fly out for the auto show but we'll see... since as of next week I'll be in no man's land MN and no longer friends with Ryan hahaha (j/k)

He's talking about my sister, I tried to hide ya, but when I have a bright orange sweatshirt on that says beer delivery guy on it, drunk people tend to flock. lol

lol You moved beyond Ryan's "friend limits" haha. If you could make it for the auto show that would rock! But its understandable if ya can't! All pics will be up 2morrow, Denise I'll send you the link first :p and yeah that was a lot of beer at the track haha...at least we stayed warm for the most part!


lol lol thats true haha.

We rock, we were slamming the beer down to keep warm, since I was wearing flip flops in 40 degree weather! LOL
yes I guess I am going to have to get Ryan to move closer to me now!! hahaha
Can't wait to see the pics!!! :D

Its amazing how drinking makes you warm ... or just makes you forget that its cold outside.

Denise, if you think thats cold, wait till you hit MN. Its only warm enough to wear sandles for just the month of august there ;) j/k.
Can't wait to see everyone's pics!

Alright after careful consideration on the drive home I have decided I will remain friends with Denise, even though she is beyond the 6 hour drive limit for friends :tongue3:

As for my weekend, everyone complain about hooking up, but I only had problems later in the night as it got real cold. I managed to pull a 12.924 @ 111 MPH on my street tires. So I am happy with that, also hd another 6 passes besides that with a trap of 111 MPH, so I am pretty happy for the weekend.

It was nice to see everyone again!

yeah I know I am gonna die not being able to wear sandals for more then half the year like I do now!!! :D yes...me too.. pics pics pics!!!

Yeah Ryan still wants to be my friend!!! My day has been made!! :D :D

k, There were two Nikki's there. Nikki with the black G6 GTP that posts on here, and there was Nikki who was sitting in the silver G6 trying to get warm with Ryan. Two Nikki's and you asked if the silver G6 was turbo'd since they rev'd at us when we were walking by.

no problem
