IL #Gridlife thread!

Hey guys i was just wondering if anyone from the forums is going to be attending Gridlife at Gingerman in MI this year? The dates are may 29-31.

I'm from IL, south chicago, close to i-80 and would be down for setting up a caravan to all cruise there together.

Also wondering if anyone would be actually participating in any of the racing events?

I originally was planning to go as I was invited by a few locals, but now have scheduling conflicts as I will be at Raceway Park Englishtown that weekend. It should be a good turnout though.

Its a full weekend of racing and music festival. They have drifting, time attack, and road racing for beginner, intermediate, and advance. Also have classes with a instructor for beginners. Or you can just go watch if you want. Check their fb page or YouTube the video from Last year.
