Come one IL people vote. GLD FTW. If this thing were to go to northern IN, what track would we go to?

Metallman56 · 12-12-2007, 06:22 AM

if its in IN then we will go to the Oscelo Drag Way. which is a small track, but its cheap. less then $20 to run as many times as you want. if we have it in Mishawaka, then its litteraly about a 10 minute drive, through town.

remember guys the only way we even have a chance to bring in Michigan and Ohio people is if its in IN. i dont expect anyone to drive more then about 2 hours. which means we can get toledo people, ft.wayne people, and grand rapids is right on the boarder of that 2 hours. not to mention same thing for all you chicago people. hell i've made it from here to Wisconson in less then 2 hours before.

The last meet we had here in Antioch had a really nice turn out and while I dont know where everyone came from I know for sure we had multiple cars that drove 3+hrs including Mike Jung who drove out from Canada

timka86 · 12-12-2007, 07:37 AM

A-town, but it looks like it's going to be really close, (even right now, 6 - 6 ).

I'd be willing to go to IN if it came down to it.

Metallman56 · 12-12-2007, 08:28 AM

mark all i'im saying is were a more central location. reason being people can come from all directions. we dont have a huge lake next to us, know what i mean? its pretty much a straight shot in. 80/90 from the east and west, 31 from the north and south. roads will be bare compaired to chicago traffic.

last meet i was at, it was in schamburg (sp). there were a lot of Michigan people, i think 90% of them had to get a hotel room, cause they didnt want to make the 3 + hour drive back that night. i'm not saying no michigan people will come, i'm just saying i dont think nearly as many will come. but dont get me wrong, i dont expect anyone from Wisconson to make the drive down to northern IN. its just a locatoin thing. i think we've got the best location, for pretty much everyone wants to come out.

Jung drove out to chicago to see a friend..we were second on his list.

But he does bring up a point, why make everyone drive forever when we can have a more centralized location? We have the same activities available if we do it like the last meet, and hell, I can put up 4 or 5 people for free. (hotel rates are lower here..and there aren't 1 billion and 1 tolls)

edit: i can't ****in make a smiley to save my life.

Gizm0815 · 12-12-2007, 09:24 AM

id rather il but ill drive anywhere. btw last i heard us 41 shut down kinda its under new ownership and they took down the tree and were flaging runs by a hand drop. so no times on the clock anymore.

stupid question but where is U.S. 41 at?

Metallman56 · 12-12-2007, 09:49 AM

its in Valparaiso which is east of us. but thats not the strip that we'd be going to, if the meet were here.

DrFabulous · 12-12-2007, 10:23 PM

I don't see MN as an option....

Malibu Glow · 12-12-2007, 10:45 PM

I was one who drove for four hours to the last meet Mark had, and unfortunately I also had to turn around that evening and head back home. This time though I'm not gonna let anything else interfere.

bigstribs · 12-13-2007, 05:32 AM

yep 10 min away im always in mount pleasant

Metallman56 · 12-13-2007, 06:37 AM

we do have hotels people. and as long as we dont plan this on a ND home game, there going to be cheap, and empty. i really dont expect people to drive 8 hours in one day (there and back) to get to a meet. AJ and i drove 7 hours when we went up to Alma MI for a meet. the drive home was awful. so board up. hell AJ has even offerd to put up a few people if need be.
