Default Welcome to Michigan Zmoothg

Was driving down toward Ann Arbor for work this morning when a black vert came flying past at some speed. The car looked a little (exactly) something like this:



Car looks great! SVR fenders looked particularly nice on a vert.

Now the real question is, why would he come all the way to Michigan without telling me?!

Hi! I was in Michigan this week! I'm currently on the Corsa Cross Country Exotic Rally. I've been jumping to a new city every day. I'm currently in Chicago

Just in case some Michigan people will be looking at this thread, I'm going to be in the Detroit / Ann Arbor area on Saturday morning with my car. I'm looking for a cars and coffee event if you could point in the right direction and maybe even meet up.

You can't go anywhere without being spotted by someone you know in this car. No hiding, especially with a red racing stripe and a license plate like that one.

Hey, if you find an event please let me know. I'd like to come out and check out some cars.

Looking at the web site, seems like single, unattached, 2weeks free, and heavy foot are good prerequisites.

Majority of the guys came with the gf/wife, some brought male friends. So single is not requirement at all, its better to be not single actually. You just need a gf/wife who enjoys speeds over 100mph. For the cross-country rally you needed 9 days free, but the other rallies are shorter 2-3 days. Heavy foot is a plus, great driving skills a necessity. A car with more than 500hp is recommended.

Seems like you are enjoying the trip. Your car looks like a corsa rally vehicle.
Happy lead foot motoring.
