I am going one of the days but not sure yet which one. We will have my black SS on chrome Zr1's and a NMRA 95 Stang and possibly a blue 05 Goat in our pit, stop by and say hi.

Looks like Sunday will be the day since it's supposed to be so nice. We'll get there around 10:30 central time probably, and be there most of the day. Hope others decide to come...you'll know its me cuz i'm a girl, and i'll be driving a silver goat.

Sweet! I'll be going quite few more times throughout the summer, so I'm sure I'll see you there at some point.

Come find us, I want you to line up with my buddy in his 05 GTO, he has not managed to run better than a 13.8, of course he 100% stock down to the paper filter and an auto as well. But it will make for a good pic (the other guy I am going with is 41's track photographer).

Sweet...I'd love to run him at some point. Like I said earlier, I should be easy to find and I'll keep my eye open for an '05 goat I don't know.

Since this year, his name is Troy Carter. He will take a pic your car at the line and you have option of buying it or not. He has agreed to be at certain events (MFBA rental, CMC rental, and other larger events). Stop on by the trailer, it's a big black 28' enclosed pulled by a white 4 door dually, my SS and a red 95 stang will be there. Honestly I am not sure how much pic taking will be going on that day as the Stang is his NMRA car and we are going to try and do some tuning on it.

Okay, so he's only there part time then. I race at Milan, which is in MI, sometimes, and they have a full-time photographer who is there for eveything. He just takes pictures all night, even at test and tunes.

You go all the way to Milan when 41 is right there? I know it's not the best track but it gets the job done. But yea he is there part time. Check out his site though he does good work.http://www.carterimaging.com/

Just look for a blue/blue GTO, a black 01 SS and red 95 GT, by a big black enclosed trailer and white Ford dually.
