Persistent Rain Nullifies Racing at Mid-Michigan Motorplex on Day 2, but a Solid Day of Cruising and Exploring Michigan is the Result, as Sick Michigan Miles Heads to Northern Michigan Dragway
After a solid first day of competition on the Sick Michigan Miles drag and drive event, and the drive from Milan to Stanton, Michigan complete, we caught rumblings of Mother Nature looking to rain on the activities on Day Two, August 12th, at Mid-Michigan Motorplex.
Despite the best efforts of the Ledford family to give us a solid surface, rain hit the track just minutes before we were about to call competitors to the staging lanes.
So, instead cars and trucks were changed back to street mode, before visiting a trio of checkpoints over 191 miles to prep for Day Three at Northern Michigan Dragway.

After dodging what looked to be a tricky afternoon forecast on Day Two to complete a full day of racing at Great Lakes Dragaway, over 300 competitors jumped on the road for a trio of checkpoints and crossing three states to Cordova Dragway for Day Three of Sick Summer.
But Wednesday would bring a shortened track day, some carnage, and some surprises on competitors that would bow out earlier than expected.
