Norwalk track rental interest
 

OK I've talked about this before. Were still looking into it and need to pick a date out. All Fridays are gone so I posted up a poll. Check it out and vote if your interested in doing it. http://www.ahsa.cc/forum/index.php?showtopic=621

Thanks

Nothing against Norwalk, but have you looked at Mid Michigan Motorplex for rental dates? It's closer and just as good of a track as Norwalk.

I've never run my car at Mid MI, but I know guys who have and they all say that Mid MI is as good as US 131-Martin, Norwalk and Natl. Trail in Colombus. Also, Every year they host the Pure Stock Muscle Car drags, so that says something about the track right there.

Just a suggestion. :)

Mid Michigan is a good track, but I would disagree that it is on the level of Norwalk.

I agree, those tracks are good but not as good as Norwalk. I'm down for the rental for sure, let me know.

Well after last years Milan nightmare I figured we go to Norwalk. I've been to the rental for the GN guys and it goes really smooth. You (renters) run the tree, water box, timing slips and do the teching. They even had the scale working. Never been to Mid Mich. and never heard anything bad about it, just don't think of it. We always go to Ubly twice a year and started uping that by throwing a track rental. I'll look into it and see how the price is compared to Norwalk. How do they handle tech on the rental days? Thats the biggest concern. Milan was a bitch about EVERYTHING last year

What about st thomas? http://www.stthomasdragway.com/

I would like to go check out Grandbend too. I here it not a bad track and just over an hour away. Shit you could hit up Port huron on your way back home :D

:thinking:

That's not what I've heard. In fact I know 2 guys who'd rather run at Mid Mi than anywhere else around. Norwalk and Martin included. :dunno:


Yep, you're right about Milan. I was there last year for the rental day and it was terrible. No food (like they said there would be), and shitty track prep as usual. Bathrooms are still a dump. Track needs to be re surfaced and the stands are from the 80s. I'm done running at Milan, 'til they start running it like the other tracks that are availiable. Sad thing is, I know the owners. One of my wifes biggest customers. At least they've got a paved pit area unlike you know where. :lol:

Don't know how Mid Mi is about tech on rental days, but I imagine it's going to be just like any other day. Safety 1st. Can't blame tracks for being pickey. They're just covering themselves from being sued. :dunno:

I was going to suggest Grand Band also. Great track. Host the Canadian Mopar Nats ever year.

Havn't run there either..... Yet. :D

Grand Bend Motorplex

Milans track surface is one of the best around. The only place my car has ever 60 footed better was 131 I've gone 1.37 at milan and 1.35 at 131. Now if the track wasn't prepped it would suck for sure but that goes for any track.

Last year at the rental there was a dead tree right at the starting line and leaves were all over. They didn't clean them up and they were in the burnout box and all the way up to the starting line.

Scott and I went to a Norwalk track rental last June,and it was top notch!Never been to any others.Willing to try.

I'm in for a track rental. Just let me know when and where.

I'm interested, but I can't commit 100% until that date gets closer

Thanks for replying. I'll let ya all know what happens at our meeting on Thursday

I'd def be in, as Ive been toa couple Norwalk rentals and the've been awesome. I could do wednesday alot easier than the other 2 days.
