Join us for a fun filled day at M1 Concourse! Cars and Coffee will kick off their gathering with an awesome display of local classic and exotic cars. Then stroll over to the big tent for a guest speaker and pizza before your M1 Thrill Ride.
The M1 Thrill Ride will have you experience 100 mph thrills around the 1.5 Mile Champion Motor Speedway in a ride-along with a professional driver. Ride shotgun for two Hot Laps in either the Track Monster Dodge Viper ACR or the Supercharged Dodge Hellcat. Feel the cornering G-forces of the Viper or the brutal straight line speed of the 707 horsepower Dodge Hellcat.
After your Thrill Ride, if your head is not spinning from the G-forces, let us take you for a quick tour of one of the on-site garages.
M1 Concourse is an 87-acre playground, celebrating the automotive industry and the history of metro-Detroit. Already the largest development of its kind in the world, M1 offers an engineered 1.5-mile Performance Track, a 2.5-acre Skid Pad & Arena area along with the most beautifully-finished private garages to be found anywhere on the planet and home to the largest Cars and Coffee events in the country, the infamous Road Kill Nights Drag Races on Woodward, and many other public and private events throughout the year. A state-of-the-art Events & Conference Center will break ground in 2018 and will become one of the largest indoor event spaces in Oakland County.

GM Heritage Center Tour
3:30 - 5:00 p.m.
6400 Center Drive, Sterling Heights
Thinking of a team building holiday activity? Maybe you would like to meet up with a customer before the holiday rush or would just like to spend some time around a cool car collection. Back by popular demand, SAE Detroit Section has arranged this exclusive afternoon tour, which normally is only open to GM employees, analysts, and the media.
The GM Heritage Center is not just a museum, but a cross between the ultimate automotive enthusiast's garage and a living repository of automotive history.
This is a great opportunity for SAE members to invite a young professional, take advantage of the landscape, and experience the history.
More than 165 vehicle exhibits and historical memorabilia over 10 decades are represented. The vehicle collection showcases a wide range of GM design, technology, and innovation. Guests will have the opportunity to see past and current concept vehicles, muscle cars, as well as historically significant vehicles from various eras. The Center is always changing with vehicle exhibits.
By highlighting the exciting designs, groundbreaking technology, and powerful brands that have comprised GM’s first century, the GM Heritage Center will help inspire new generations of enthusiasts and make the company even stronger in years to come as GM moves toward a second century of operations. This is evident by great designs, both legendary and recent, like the sixth generation Corvette, Cadillac 16 Concept Vehicle, and the Pontiac Solstice.
