Martin, MI IHRA race

For those that have never been to Martin, it is an awesome facility. Great track with concrete walls, extra length from water box to starting line (great for driving out of the water), very long shut down area, large pit area with paved roads, top notch grandstands, scales, bathrooms, etc. I feel very fortunate to live so close. One tip: get your trailer closed up before dark or it will be FULL of bugs, including lots of mosquitoes. I made a single run at night there a couple of weeks ago during a test and tune and I hit so many bugs that it looked like I had been driving all night long!
