Hey guys just wondering how many of you from Michigan or nearby states or heck anywhere in the country would be up for a meet at the in Martin, Michigan? I know there aren't a ton of you from the area, but I know there are some. Just throwin out a feeler to see if it would be worth a stangnet get together this summer.

Like I said before, absolutely

I guess I was a little hasty about the 2 weeks and pulling the car out too stampede because we're due for another 4-6 inches of snow.

I tell ya man, last year at this time I was underneath the car with the roads and grass clear

Although, we did get more snow this season than any other in recorded history in Lansing? God I hate winter.

Martin is about and hour north of indiana kinda in the middle of the state. Mapquest for exact location Either way it's a nice track and I think we could have some fun getting together for test and tune some weekend.

I looked up fraser and it looks like you could make it there in prolly just over 2 hours. It would be a pretty straight shot for your just jump on 94 and take it to 131 and you are pretty much there.

I thought there were more people in this area on stangnet?? Rio95 lives 2 minutes from me so he would come out, but I thought there were a few others.

What good is the power if you can't lay it down!!!

Seriously, these Nitto's are way past their regular lifespan…and are now getting harder rather than softer. I desperately need some new shoes…as I don't foresee 11's with the current ones.

Just found this posting regarding 'anyone in or near Michigan'. I live in Reed City which is an hour north of Grand Rapids. I have been to Martin (I believe). Is that where the (131 dragway is)? Sorry if I called it wrong. I think that is what it was at one time.

Yeah, the name has been changed a few times over the years, but we just always call it Martin, since thats the town it is in.
