So where is everyone else is staying in detriot?

Most of us are doing Wed and Thurs night at the Ramada and then moving into Detroit somewhere for Fri and Sat nights. Since Cars and Coffee is early there's plenty of time to check in afterwards and then do Woodward on Saturday.

Why wouldn't you want to stay at a hotel with 50 other Camaros. It would be beyond cool...

How bout a hotel with 3 or 4 hundred other Camaros. It's a 100 mile drive from Lansing to Detroit one way. Some might want to hang around Lansing after Thursday but will have to commute back and forth as all the action will be at Woodward by then. Wed night and Thurs night should be a blast at the Ramada, but probably way less Camaros after that.

Yeah I'm not a morning person so 7:30a for cars and coffee is going to be rough and that's even if the hotel is right on top of where we're meeting in the morning.

Leaving from Lansing Friday morning to make it in at a reasonable time just doesn't look good to me, as much fun as Thursday night at the Ramada might be. I will gladly party in the parking lot with whoever is there Wednesday night though. Bring it on.

EXACTLY... late night Thursday in the parking lot and sleep in on Friday before moving to Detroit.

So you're skipping the Friday Cars and Coffee event then? Or showing up late? I mean, that's a thought...

I can guarantee I am... but that's just me.

Might show up late but then I have no Camaro either.

I didn't realize it was that far. May change my hotel for Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Anybody have a lead on hotels closer to Woodward?

You'll probably want to keep the hotel for Thursday night. Should be a good party that night. Pack up and go to Cars and Coffee and then you have all day to check in Friday afternoon

US131 Motosport Park has a test and tune night the 17th. 6pm to 10pm.

About a 1 hr 10 minutes from the Ramada Inn in Lansing.

Guys coming from Gingerman that day would go close to it on the way back to Lansing.

Yup... as long as you are BONE stock.

For Lansing, I booked Comfort Inn across the street from Ramada for Wednesday night... but will walk over for meet and greet Wed nite, and then make the Factory Fest Thursday. I have a room booked at Detroit Marriot Troy for the remaining nights which is very close (4 1/2 miles) and just about straight east from Woodward and the Birmingham Triangle (and Chevy's main staging area?). I'll figure out a way to go down and see the Camaro Corral from there.

Anyway, Detroit Marriot Troy still has rooms for those trying to figure this out...

Now, I've rented a Camaro (hopefully, but no guarantees)... and if I actually get one, I'll go to Troy after Thursdays events and make Camaros and Coffee. If not, I'll change my reservations, stay Thursday in Lansing (to party with the forum of course, and sleep in Friday), and head to Troy on Friday to be in place for Saturday's shindig!
