Not many people know me here, but my name is Jeremi and I would like to invite everyone to a Mark VIII fanatics BBQ on August 5th.

We have a long time club member visit from out of state and we need to welcome him back best we can.

The meet will take place either on Grosse Isle, MI, or Farmington Hills, MI. This is yet to be decided.

We plan on major car talk, beer tasting, bbq burning type of event.

If needed, I will be able to do some wrenching on people's cars. Please let me know in advance what you need done. And no, no blower installs LOL !!!

Please post here or PM me if you have any questions.

Of course, everyone is invited so come one come all and welcome Mike with us !!!

I'll try to make the meet... we'll have to see what my wife has planned. That's the Civil War Reenactment weekend here in Boscobel and usually my wife has a bunch of family come for the weekend.

Plus it's her Birthday weekend.... but if no one is coming I could give her a trip to Detroit for a B-day present.

Farmington Hills and Grosse Ile are both within a half hour of Detroit.

You're welcome to stay at my house Mike, but I'll be having another house guest then, and it might be a little tight.

Mike, that makes two of you.

I'd be honored to have you here.

Bill is right, everything is close here, conected via a high speed autobahns ... hehe at least that how I see them. It's looking good as far as having it at my place, so you could stay in the guest bedroom, or set up a tent in the backyard.

This is too cool !!!

Serg, yep that's where we met. I forget what beer you liked; I need to make sure I have it at the BBQ.

If it wouldn't have been so close to the July meet and that I have to go to Mike's this week to get my 94 Mark VIII it would have been easier to make the meet.

2006 Michigan Summer Meet !!!

This event will take place on August 5th, 2006.

We have a long time club member visit from out of state and we need to welcome him back best we can.
We are expecting 20 Lincoln Mark VIIIs, at least one Lincoln Mark VII, and one Lincoln Mark II.
Other Lincolns and Fords will be also present.
Early in the day, around 9 AM, several of us will be attending a dyno day at Alternative Auto in Mt.Clemens.

Alternative Auto Performance
145 Malow Unit D - Mt. Clemens, Michigan 48043
www.alternativeauto.com

We plan on being there until 11AM.

From there, we will cruise via I-696 to Farmington Hills, for the main event, scheduled for 12:00PM.

(I've PM-ed everyone with the address. If you haven't received a message, please empty your message box and send me a PM or email)

We plan on major car talk, beer tasting, bbq burning type of event, that will run late into the day.
Any food and drink supplies are welcome, as this is a non-sponsored event.

There are several parking areas in the vicinity so we can go out and have group photos taken.

Thank you in advance for your participation,

Jeremi

I sold my Mark awhile ago, but I'd still like to come and see some familiar faces. Is it OK if I show up in this??

Maybe I'll bring some 109 fuel and turn up the boost at Alternative and see what it spins....I've done 403RWHP on 94 octane...How much for the dyno day?

Don't be scared, be terrified! LOL....I'm really having a blast with the car. On the same low-boost and street tires I ran a 12.6@116 my 1st time to the track with horrid 2.0 60 foot times. With drag radials and a bit more boost, 11's no problem. The high MPH suggests a mid to high 11 second car, easy. On a roll, it's absolutely deadly. I've blown off 2 Vipers, a Porsche 996 Turbo, a 2006 BMW M5 to name a few. From a 40MPH roll, traction is less of an issues (though I have spun them at 55MPH!!) and you really feel the thrust. I'll be happy to take people for rides or let them take it for a spin...

I was thinking of something smart:D to say But I'll be nice thats pretty fast for a micro car :eek: :eek: How much does it weigh??

RRocket
July 26th, 2006, 12:37 AM
Micro car? The Supra is a full-sized Grand Tourer...Weight is about the same as a C5 Vette. It has an Inline 6 with Twin Turbos. Massive brakes with 4 pot calipers all around (IIRC it held Automobile mags braking record until the 2002 Viper came out). Grip is .096 on the skidpad. Cars with the same mods as mine reach mid 180's mph up top. To give you an idea of the size, I'll compare it to the Mark.

The Mark has 3/4" more headroom, but the Supra has 1.5" more legroom. Hip room is the same in both cars. The Mark REALLY trumps it in shoulder room..about 4" more. I suspect that has lots to do with the Supras high doors...All in all it's a very comfortable, fast Grand Tourer. Some people would call it a sports car, but I think it's a touch too big to be a true sports car.

Sergmark
July 26th, 2006, 01:19 AM
Please don't misunderstand me when I say micro car. I mean it in a good way.
I almost bought a supra years ago in there early days. It sounds like they have made the cars much better and with that power it has to be wild to drive on the streets Great on the skid pad !!>...:eek: :D
I'm from the old school having owned a 69 427 corvette when I was 19 It was my second car and a lot of fun... to many tickets :eek:

I really need to spend some time at the shop on Saturday. I should be there from abour 11:00 on. I do plan on taking the trailer for a test drive tomorrow. If all goes well I'll probably take it out to Baker's on Sunday.

I can bring the Mark II to the shop in case I get hung up and can't make the party.

Great photos guys.

It was great meeting everyone and I think we all had a great time.

I've got photos of everyone as they arrived standing by their car.

How do I attach each of them with a line of text to show their names?

Thanx everyone for making this happen - my driveway is always open for more mark VIIIs. It feels empty now:(

I remember you asking somebody if my car has 4.10's. Well, it doesnt. The dude with the black gen2 didnt beleive me that it was all stock, but it is.:D

It wasn't a question of extra power, but the two wheel burnout and possible posi traction. I guess it's all in the tires, or lack thereof as well as proper technique. You need 4.10s though :)

Test drives are always welcome, when I'm 100% sober that is. And thank YOU JP !

I have the 4.10's sitting in my room right now. Im just waiting for my brother to put his mini spool in his car so i can have his old Ford racing trac-lok. Then its getting rebuilt and put in sometime in october.

Not one pic of the Supra, eh??? LOL Had a great time, and enjoyed bringing a couple of people for spins in the Supra. Barry's trailer was wicked, had a nice ride in the convertible Mark VIII, and even put Bryan to work grillin' some grub and polishing my headlights!! Was a great meet...looking forward to the next one!!

My wife was wondering who was drinking Bells beer at the meet ?

We're gonna have another follow up meet this week to work on Sergmark's HIDs. It looks like the party never stops here in MI.

I had asked Bryan to pick me up the Bell's Amber Ale. I see Dave was drinking Bell's Pale Ale. Bell makes some great beer...

Sergmark
August 9th, 2006, 03:01 PM
Bells Amber ale H'mm never tried that one. I hope everyone enjoyed the Heineken I brought as a gift and I could only have one :-((
Ah new REAL HIDs:D :D :D

That reminds me. Where's my deposit money for the beer cans and bottles? By the looks of that trash can, there must have been 500 bottles and cans in there. At $.10 a pop, no wonder you guys in Michigan host parties. You can almost pay the mortgage with that stupid deposit rule. I bet there isn't a trash can anywhere in Michigan that has a can or bottle more than a day old in it. LOL.

The Bells was good. I should have bought more of those instead of the Red Stripe.:rolleyes:

Good to finally catch up to you Ron. Not literally. Working on that.:D

And Jeremi, it was my bad on missing the roller coaster ride. Next time.

I'm gonna use that money to print HUGE "bottles and cans here" signs for you Bells drinkers as those were the only bottles and caps laying all over the place after the meet. I guess they don't teach to clean up after yourself in your states/countries. NOT :cool:.

Opps, Busted. I just said I brought them officer, not drank them. :shifty:

I'm pretty sure somebody must have removed those from the bin as some kind of collectors item and then forgot to take them.
