M1 Concourse - Michigan

Hey all, figured I would share. I've been taking my '15 M4 to a series of events at M1 Concourse. Anyone want to meet up at a Cars and Coffee or a track event? I have a garage there, more than welcome to stop by and say hi.

Aah I was there yesterday, but then again who wasn't. Great turnout. I'd be down to meet up for the next one

Thanks for extending the offer traffic335 ! I am on their mailing list but haven't had a chance to attend anything yet. However, my friend Steven with the blue F10 M5 has been out a few times with rave reviews.

Assuming your garage is in Phase 1? Any pics???

Will have to let you know if I can ever make it out.

Yep I live right around there. Come to think of it, I've noticed a signal green f82 in the area a handful of times, is that you?

sam - i have an AY, but I have seen the signal green M4 roaming about.

Agent11br - i'm in phase 1, no pics yet mostly due to the fact that I haven't finished the floor and put a lift in. i'm setting up the car now for club events there. the facility is top notch.

Sweet deal. Please post pics once you get things up! Did you do one of the mezzanine lofts? I was looking at Phase 2/3, wife has put the kabosh on the idea though.

I haven't seen the signal green yet, have seen a two AW F80's (one fairly modified), BSM F80, SS F82, an AY F82 (maybe you Traffic!?, was at Long Lake and Adams few weeks back), and an MG F80 identical to mine.

Long Lake and Adams could have been me, potentially. I usually drive more through Livernois area from Troy down to Royal Oak. But yeah, feel free to let me know when you come out. Putting on JB4, Pagids, EC-7s, NT01s in the next week or so.

traffic335 thank you for offering. BTW, you said you have an AY? Are you at Beaumont RO? I have seen an AY M4 there from time to time.

Hmm...I was planning to go to cars & coffee on Saturday (tomorrow), but I just check the events calendar again and it's not on there anymore! I thought when I checked earlier this week, I remember seeing it scheduled for tomorrow.

yes i noticed as well. it seems they have replaced a free event with a payed event. I also noticed the name of the track has also changed. I am planing on taking a little woodward cruise to night to see who is out, but other than that i am going to do a little suspension work on me Zl1. New springs on want to test out.

Hi all, they did cancel C&C, but that was unrelated to their first private track event. I will probably be over at my garage tomorrow if anyone wants to come by. Looks like they have about 60 cars for the track day tomorrow. I plan on doing the JB4 install tomorrow, so will be turning some wrenches. If you plan to come send me a PM, I would just let the gatekeeper know.

This weekend is done for me, too much to do at home. Maybe next weekend. I'd love to hang out and check out your garage. I know there are a couple other local guys wanting to meet up too.

Here's a link to the Events Calendar. LINK
No events scheduled for Saturday. Then on Sunday, there is the M1 Garage Owner Open Track Day.

It's Labor Day weekend though, so I'm not sure if a lot of people are around to meet up.

I'm going to hit the track in the morning on Sunday for the club laps if all goes to plan.

But wouldn't be a bad idea to get together another weekend. Just let me know. If all else fails, could do a meet up at my garage for one of the 2 C&C events in September.

Is there a place where the general public can park their car and watch the track events? Like this Sunday perhaps? M1C is so close to me but I've never been there before. Weather is going to be great too.

Yeah, there is a small lot right next to the McDonalds that is on the corner and you can walk right into the track and watch any event run there. They are very cool about it.

You could try the private entrance and just drop my name, I'll PM you the details. I'll be on track between 9-Noon.
