Fast Friday's @ Mid America Motorplex on April 23rd & 7th

Post by Asian G »

So far I've talked to Shawn(get right) about the Fast Friday events and I am also trying to generate other's interest as well. For me I'm wanting to get more seat time in preparation for EXPO 10 :D This is a fairly local track for us KC guys & there is also Heartland Park in Topeka, KS. PM me & LMK what U guys think or if u want to link up.

So far I'm planning on attending/driving on April 23rd, May 7th, and May 21st.

Cost for a FULL Day(9am-6pm) = $120.00
Cost for a Half Day (1pm-6pm) = $80.00

I think I have the 21st scheduled off already, so that may work out well.

We meet up all the time in small groups (Kevin, Jim, Jason and myself), it is getting the others (Jo, Andrew, Gunner) that do not get out as often a chance to meet up.

Jeff, since he has bought the Viagra sponsored Chevy, doesn't get out as often and is too good for us. :P

Andrew is stuck with a GF all the time- his B.S. excuse, I haven't met Jo yet in person- but I understand with a new baby soon, and I don't believe I know Gunner. Plus I caught up with the OLD FART Jeff a few weeks ago and drop off sum East Coast Booz to him. He's been kick'n it & busy with Daniel's Baseball a Lot! But I agree he is too good for US Honda guys anymore :P, since we went to the Dark side :roll:

I'm still on VACATION up untill Expo 10 & till I go to school in July! So hit me up anytime for any gatheringz or meatz and I'll be there.

The April date is too soon for me, but one of those May dates might work. I haven't been to MAM in a few years but actually enjoy it. Maybe I'll make a small trip out of it or something.

How are these fast friday run there? Pretty safe?

That'll be sweet if U can make it out sometime in May 7th or 21st. Last time I was out at M.A.M. was Expo 5 and I still have the track memorized in my head! Thanks to Budman for that :D

This will be my first Fast Friday Event coming up this weeks, so I'll let U know more details & I'll post up a video session. But I know Get Right, Batoutahell, Budman are def familiar with M.A.M. so maybe they can chime in soon with more details! In my opinion, M.A.M. has always been a safe flat track w/ plenty of run off space :wink:

2-4" (it adjusts) below the OE lip. I modified mine to raise up to approx 1" below the OE lip because I would rather use the OE lip than the one provided.

The brackets is what I modified/cut. I have it as high as it will go without cutting into the rad support. If you cut the rad support it will allow you the room to put it anywhere you want it.

U BETTER! Budman just confirmed with me yesterday that HE's a "GO" for the 21st as well!

John can check with Jim to see if he's able to make it? Plus I'm still waiting for a reply from Kevin.

I'm bugg'n Kevin at the moment to come out, so we'll have to wait to hear his verdict soon.

I def understand about Jim, but would be cool if he did make it.

And that would be great JGirard makes it.

Is there anybody else in the KC, Omaha, OK, St. Louis Area that track's?

So far for what I know there is only 4 confirmed:

1. Shawn- Get Right
2. John- Comp97GSR
3. Jeff- Budman w/ his Non-R Vette
4. Brian- Asian-G (ME)
