Vern, in the past it is Friday TNT only with no gamblers race, Saturday time trials only, 10.0 race, and box and no box gamblers, and sunday points race.  No need to go till Saturday morning if you are an early riser. It will take you about 5.5 hours to get there roughly.

So what the motel/hotel deal up there ??
Anything else I need to know about this track..
Short shut down? cliff at the end LOL...does it hook good ? whats tech like ? what the pits like ? dirt ? I been told it is a nice track ?
Its the nicest racing surface you will have ever raced on, smoother than Norwalk. Much longer shutdown.
The portion where the sportsman racers will pit is grass, a few near the front have electrical, most dont.
Motel wise, look in Kalamazoo for one, there isnt much of anything near the track, Kalamazoo is 20 minutes from the track with many motels. You want to get something close to US131 if you can(should be easy, there are a number of them).
Tech usually checks belts and helmets and gives a car a quick lookover.
Hook is generally excellent for any "event" they have like this, it can sometimes be iffy on Test and tune nights, but the last couple of years even that has been solid.
I dont know of a nicer "racing surface" in the midwest than 131.. norwalk has showers and way more pavement, but racing surface wise, nothing compares to 131.And the burnout box is way longer than Norwalk, you dont have to worry coming out of the water about going across the starting line.

I think the skeeters pick on the Buckeyes trying to make up for the Wovlerines. I had bits on my ankles for weeks after last year.

Lots if us Michiganders are Michigan State fans, and hate the Wolverines as much as the Buckeyes do...Count me as part of that
