New MI pull added

Looking forward to meeting some of the guys from up north. We will make a trip to Spring Fling II June 23 Holland, MI. Drag Race, Dyno, Sled pull at Merchant Automotive. This is growing as we speak. Looks like drag race Friday night, dyno Saturday, drags again Sat. night and sled pull on Sunday.
There will be a dyno shootout between Maddog and NastyGirl, both said to be 1k hp machines. It's also a rumor that a 6 liter Ford will be in the mix. Two magazines will be on site to report on this event.
Every one is invited to attend. Keep in mind the magazines are primarily there for the dyno shoot out and time will be limited. The dyno is supplied by David Dunbar. Hope to see you there.

They have some good events but it's just too far without sponsor money.
