MI Roadster,

I understand what your saying about downtown Detroit, but that's the typical "suburban mentality" that keeps things the way they are around here. We've (SE MI CEG www.contour.org) had MANY meets on the island w/o incident. Now granted, we have em' on a Sunday where there's a different type of people who go out there, you know, families, people jogging, etc than what you see out there on the weekend nights. I know you haven't been out there in sometime, so I invite you to check it out before you say NO to the idea. Its not perfect, but its nowhere as bad as you say it is. I actually take my family out there about 3-4 times a year to drive around and hangout. From there, a trip to Mexican Village is a nice little drive, or we could head down Jefferson into the Grosse Points, its the same place that Autoweek uses to get shots of the cars they're testing, heck, they even use Belle Isle come to think of it, hmm! Either way, I'm open to anything in the area and the Kensington thing is good because the area around Chelsea is very nice. Lets set this up.
