Michigan check-in & spotting by blodi pt.2

[sca037]

Probably doing family/Fathers day stuff tomorrow. But, got out to the M1 concourse CnC today. Simply staggering amount and quality of cars there. Very cool and good time.

Pictures or it never happened!

Thanks again Ryan for the data load on the purple beast, plus your primo 240Z is on the lift and ready for Dr. Jim's proctological prowess ;-P

C'mon guys, let's hit Baker's tomorrow ;^D

Oh that is right! Forgot about that one....explains why the C&C in Wixom was quieter.

Neal, sign me up for August 6th! Unsure on the Bakers Cruise...need to spend more time at home to make up for all the car meets lately

I also attended the M1 Concourse C&C yesterday. One of the biggest and best C&C's I've seen! Lots of amazing cars from all makes and met some great people. Exchanged numbers with another red NSX owner named Tony from Clarkston who isn't on the forum, hopefully we can get him to come out for a meet. Saw Ryan's car as I was leaving the parking lot (there's his proof), but unfortunately didn't have time to say hello.

Without further ado:

Star of the show:

Neal, I do still live in Bowling Green

Blodi, have you ever ran you car at a 1/4 mile track?

 

[pjr300]

EOD was great as usual. Lots of pics. I like this one

Red ribbon, that's awesome Patrick!

We had many folks check out the purple car today at Baker's.............most of which were WTF 8-P

Congrats on the Phoenix-like return. It lives again, reborn from the ashes of Traverse City.

I did once a few years ago when it had a stock engine and supercharger. With a screwed up 1-2 shift it went 12.1@ 125.5. Now with the built engine and turbo....yeah, I'd be curious

There is video footage on YouTube of that from DTRockstar1, IIRC.

 

[nsxohio]

That's pretty good but I'm really curious like you to see what you will run now. I ran a 13.3 in my NA at Norwalk OH. There's also a video of my car at norwalk on YouTube.

 

[blodi]

I have a feeling that id break the rules and be asked to leave after one pass for not having a cage.
Im sure it's in the low 11's....maybe faster with a better driver than myself. Maybe someday I'll get back out there. Gotta make the first pass count though

 

[Hass]

Let me know when you go, I haven't been to Milan in 15 years.

Did not show, but went to the 41st annual St. Ignace, Michigan, Car Show on Saturday, June 25th, 2016. Likely one mile of cars, light trucks, and other stuff (Rat Rods, mfgr displays, flea market set-ups, etc) lined up both sides of St. Ignace's main street bayside to Lake Huron. As always one never knows what might be seen there. Tons of USA muscle 50-60-70's. Even a kit car Lambo with an automatic transmission!

A couple of random pics...... note the "Mack Truck" statuary on the front top of this golf cart.

MSP had a couple Motor Troopers with their BMW scoots.

Last photo is on the Canadian side of the St. Mary's River between Sault Ste Marie, Michigan, and Sault Ste Marie, Ontario, looking downriver at a Canadian registered float plane taking off into the westerly wind with the 1004' (length) by 105' (beam) Great Lakes bulk carrier Edwin H. Gott upbound and about to enter the Poe Lock for Lake Superior.

Weather was super and nothing like a Michigan summer!

 

[Hass]

I saw one of those MSP BMW scooters Saturday on Telegraph. I have to take a trip up north this summer.

Found this on FB from high octane meet yesterday.

Lol I'm bad with names, I think I saw your car on Jefferson last November after the belle isle meet.

Seeing the police cars reminds me of the special group on display at the "eyes on design" event on Father's Day. Here's a few pics!

I think that's my car, I did represent at the high octane event on Sunday. It was a nice morning to cruise Bloomfield & Woodward....

Anyone entered into the Ann Arbor Rolling Sculpture show next week? Not sure if registration is closed now or not...

 

[pjr300]

I am in at Rolling Sculpture. I did not hear about High Octane. Looks like I missed a good one.

My 10 year reign at Ford PDC with the only NSX is over....

We met Tianbo and his white SP8CSHP last night!

He got a taste of boost and I think he liked it (you might want to ask him, in case I misinterpreted his reaction ;-)

 

[Hass]

Nice to see everyone out

 

[bmac]

Hm I should have joined. I had mine across Southfield in the APTL structure all last week. Not a fan of Allen Park's roads though.

 

[Hass]

Dearborn/Allen Park lunch meet? Next Friday? Lol

 

[blodi]

Ford shutdown next week. I'll be outta town. Maybe the following week?

 

[tbox]

No worries Ryan, I work & park across the street in FEL so your reign of being the only NSX in Ford PDC still remains. Two NSX's at Ford is sure a rare sight though

Brian, thank you and Judi again for the hospitality! I definitely enjoyed the boost (despite fearing for my life)....it was a ride to remember. Hopefully it'll break in quickly and get back to 100% in no time

Hassan, I'm always open for lunch around Dearborn area, just shoot me a text!

 

[Hass]

The following week works for me too. I have July 4th week off myself but I live nearby.

Lunch July 8th?
