CKiW iRADIO 76 has been following the Milan Dragway story for a long time now. It's a story that should be a mini-series and it would be a blockbuster. We like the owners of Milan and we make sure to have them on whenever we can so we can provide to you all kinds of facts about Milan Dragway right from the source. It's the CK way. Our guests today are the hard working Perry and Pam Merlo from the Milan Dragway (Harry was gettin' them sponsors). Topics talked about the show today include: what is new at Milan, the new staging lanes, the new burnout box, talking about the track surface, what is the opening date and is it doable, Detroit Dragway Reunion, new Christmas tree, getting the timing system updated, Pam and that pushing work schedule, how much that Perry and Pam had to learn on the job, folks helping out-Tim, Mark, Les, Chip, Chuck, Bill, J.R., Ron, Dennis, London Township, how Dirty Harry's Performance Shop came together and what it will be, concessions and how that is progressing, water systems at Milan, the deep schedule, how late in the year they may be racing at Milan, VIP building, new sponsors signs, will there be a pre-opening, a 1963 newspaper article and who will be running the first official race at Milan this year, Pam Merlo joins in with us, Harold and that schedule, Autorama, talking about other drag strips, the goodwill towards Milan Dragway from the racers and fans, keeping Perry awake, when will Milan be satisfied and when will they are done, improving the pits, the playground is on site, Chris Baxter, drag racing and entertainment, band playing at Milan, Bike Night(s) and what that includes, NHRA, lane sponsors, racing Wednesday to Sunday, track rental, new employees, what Pam didn't see coming, being transparent, receiving great support, getting the keys December 20th and January 3rd, the goal date, the Merlo's previous involvement with drag racing, the drag racing community, the announcement of who is going to be the FIRST to lay rubber on the burnout box, no name change to the track, the return of Friday nights, Nostalgia Nats, Team Z, a bit of that court case in Monroe, the epilogue and so much more!
