Kudos to Northwoods Shelby Club

[Meateater]

Northwoods Shelby Club hosted its spring fling event at Road America this weekend. It was my first event with the club and I have to tell you it was awesome! Hats off to the club for a safe, fun, friendly event with mega track time! Since its close to my home town, I was even able to see my 90 year old car enthusiast dad! Friendly advice from fellow drivers helped to shave lap times. Its really cool when your fellow drivers want you to go faster! Looking forward to the next event with Northwoods Shelby Club, but before that will be a track weekend with the Northstar BMW club at Brainerd International Raceway June 5th and 6th.

I would wholeheartedly agree. I've attended 3 of their events and every one is spot on professional and well organized. If only everyone in the world was a track rat ... we could all live in peace and harmony. Car enthusiasts are the kindest and most helpful there is. I saw you drive by twice on the way back to your paddock spot ... Avalanche Gray is my favorite 350 color. See you back in June?

I'm running at Brainerd the first weekend of June. But I'm looking at a Blachhawk Farms event later in the year. I will for sure make more events with this club!

Road America (America's National Park of Speed) is the only track I go to and gain weight. The breakfast sandwiches and sausages are incredible, I hope the church group is still selling home made ice cream, and the souvenir shops are also great. How did you like running down through Canada Corner?
It's a great corner to spectate as well.

The Gearbox was open, had a brat, double cheeseburger and a ham, sausage, bacon and cheese egger! Yes, one can certainly gain a pound or two. The Paddock Shop is open and well stocked! We used the "Kink" this past weekend so the back part (Kettle Bottoms) was extra fun. I love diving into Canada corner and preparing for a good exit from 14 and carrying speed up the main straight. I do think my favorite part of the track is turn 3 to 5.

Since I was 17 and working at a vintage race team the Eggert has been a hangover miracle lol some of my best memories are hanging out with old drivers and drinking and dancing at Sebkins. Now I just have to pass that down to my kids

The egger either cures the hang or makes you puke! Either way.... rock on! Siebkin's was open but not at full function. Still way cool to visit for a few beers. Lake Street Tavern, The Paddock Clun and Route 67 were open and pretty busy. Plan to head back for Vintage in May.
