According to the web site, we don't qualify as a "micro car" (won't stop me from going, however...)

When I went to Micros on the Monument in Racine the definition was under 9' long and under 1000cc. They are concidering the smart to be a mini car at this one. But they are still having the mini cars @ the meet.

I guess since you don't have to drive a smart all hunched over that makes it a mini.

"August 21-22, 2010", huh?

Well, looks like we may have to take another 'road trip' to Chicago for my BD (8/23). Last year we took a day off and went up for a Cubs game. Next year maybe a Cubs game AND the "Micro/MINI Car World Meet 2010"....SWEET!!!!
