Smile Any Elise owners near Grand Rapids?

I was just wondering if there were any Elise owners in West Michigan. I am picking up my 05 next week.

There are a few owners close by you (NMR Rock comes to mind). You should get on the Great Lakes Lotus Club site. There are some track events sponsored by Auto Europe coming up at Gingerman and Grattan that you should really attend. Kestrel will fill you in here.

Welcome to the group and congrats on the car! I'll be out your way Friday the 30th at Grattan if you want to stop by and say hello.

I'll be in town on August 11th and I never got a chance to hit Gingerman before I moved. Does anyone need a co-pilot?

I'll let you know if I'm going to be able to make it the 11th. It may be tough to get the day off from work.
