What are details of the Detroit Regional next week?

[Brad M.]

I will be working in Detroit next week. What are the times for the event and where exactly is it (all that I know is that it is in Novi)? I would like to visit if I can work out my schedule accordingly.

Hopefully, I will eventually get my car back together and be able to enter my car at one of these. But I figure it would be nice to go to one even without my car.

Don't forget the $3 coupon.

Let me know if you need more info.

Brad, it too bad your not registered and driving your Corvette as the GM Milford Proving Grounds is going to be a home run!
Our committee took a "dry run" this past Thursday and GM is pulling out ALL the stops for the NCRS tour on Sunday.
I worked for GM for 37+ years at the GM Tech Center and had to go to the MPG on a regular basis, however, on this dry run I saw parts of the Grounds that I had not seen before. It will far surpass the 1992 NCRS tour and should not be missed this time around.

I'm looking forward to it being a home run.

Even though it was fun driving "Orange Crush" with a spare engine and transmission on the tour in 1992 -- I'm driving something more fitting for the occasion this time.

Don't feel bad - I was the one driving the 1976 VW Beetle back in 1992.

I, too, have a more appropriate car now.

Terry, I hope your more fitting ride is a Corvette, because because that's all that's allowed this time around.

Looking forward to seeing you.

I would offer you a ride Art, but the passenger seat is already spoken for.

You will get to see it at the show, or the grounds whichever you get to first. Short story is I got a 2008 to almost match the 1970. It kind of matches Patrick's too.

Hopefully I won't need a shotgun seat. Depending on how the steering wheel re assembly goes tomorrow. Today I was turning the wheels, from outside the car, so I could reposition the car in order to put it on the hoist and caught the turn signal arm and broke it off. Turns out that I broke the plastic canceling mechanism. I have repaired with some epoxy...........and I pray that it holds because I don't have time to order a new one before I leave for the Regional Wed.

With that said..............your Blue car will have to follow my Blue car at the MPG. Age has it's privilege!!!

Age before beauty, Art.

BTW: Maybe we should compare OUR age, rather than the car's age!

OK, then it's about time you respect your elders!

Re: What are details of the Detroit Regional next week?

I would guess we have done this before, but I think I may have you on age.

Art, wish you the best of luck with the epoxy, but I have never had any success repairing the mechanism

You youngster, is all I'll say in public. I'll show you when we meet.

I earned this white beard, and I'm D)&+ proud of it. Oh, and I am back to work again, too.

Good luck with the turn signal. If fixing it don't work we both know how to hand signal for turns -- unlike the young wipper snappers on the road now days. Just stay out of the big city -- they'll think you are giving gang signs.

Same here.

Art, just drive over to Paragon and get one.
