Hmmm... I don't see any other races on the calendar on this weekend. We might have to check this one out.
This show/race is worth the trip.
Spend the weekend and get in the Sunday bracket race. It's a regular points race for us but all are welcome. We usually have 70-80 cars in Pro on points Sundays. I would love to see the Mopar guys stick around and get us closer to that 100 car mark!

We are going to try to make it. Hoping to leave Friday after work. It looks like a straight shot up 23 for us. Is there any construction or detours we should be aware of? Does Milan race 1/8th or 1/4 mile?

Shaun,
If you are taking 23N to 15W to 75N, 75 has construction from Findlay to Perrysburg, Friday afternoon/evening could be a parking lot. Also, 23/475N from Rt 25 in Perrysburg to 475/23 split has construction and will be bad Friday evening also. If I were you I would take 23N to 20W to 75N and take the bypass on the east side of Toledo. Should be way less problems. Hope this helps.

Joe, Ann Arbor road down from the Ford dealership had a detour when we went to Milan for the heads up race the first Friday of the month.
It said local traffic only so we went down to the next exit on 23 which is the Cone Rd/Azaila exit and turned right headed back towards Dundee and turned on to Ostrander Rd. to Plank Rd.
P.S. Ostrander Rd. is a pretty bad bumpy road also now.
David
Construction on Ann Arbor Rd. must be complete. We went M50 to Ann Arbor Rd. to Ostrander to Plank last Sunday no problems.

I haven't been in a couple of years, but I thought the turnout was larger than I remember. I saw a few familiar cars, watched a couple rounds of
eliminations and left. A good afternoon.

I was hoping to make it out there this year but I have
the trans out of the Rampage... trashed it.. should
be back in, in about a week or so... glad you had
a good day

What I was wondering was-- Where were all the swap meet people?? Two trailers?? I remember years ago two or three sections of swappers. My 13 y.o daughter and I stood at the burnout box most of the day.. She hadn't been to a track in years. I dragged her down and answered about 100 questions.. She actually had a good time. Saw dustergirl 340 and her hubby... Hopefully next year I will be down there with my car. Kevin

Had a good time, car ran well just my lights stunk,,. Decided to double up and run two classes. I ended up paired with Chuck Lewis 1st round in Nostalga. needless to say he treed me..043 to my .117  First round in sportsman I red lit. by .063  Bought back into Nos. red lit again.only .041 this time  Decided to load up and head home. Wasn't much at the swap but Met some new people and connected with some old friends. so Good time overall.

I missed it. I had a wedding that I was standing in for one of my buddies. Beleive me he heard about it. Like I told him, "Who plans their Wedding on the day of the Telegraph Cruise & Mopars At Milan???". I heard the numbers were way down on the swap meet, race cars, show cars & spectators from previous years.
