Motorsports + music = fun. That’s the simple formula behind the Gridlife Midwest Festival on June 7-9, but that’s a gross oversimplification of the weekend at GingerMan Raceway.

However, while it's difficult to capture the event succinctly, it’s such a good time for all that it brings out world renown headliners in the motorsport and automotive world:

  • Vaughn Gittin Jr., two-time Formula Drift champion.
  • Feras Qartoumy, time attack winner in U.S., Australia and Japan.
  • T.J. Hunt, noted YouTuber with “too many cars.”
  • Jessica Hawkins, head of the F1 Academy for Aston Martin F1 team.

Then, there’s the music. Here’s a sampling of what’s on tap:

  • Zeds Dead
  • Barely Alive
  • Eazybaked
  • Mersiv

Plus, we'll be there, too, covering the event. If you're planning to make the trip, please feel free to share in the comments.

The musical acts aren't quite my cup of tea, but I bet they sound great live.

EDM seems to lend itself to large, laser-filled shows.

Streetcar takeover at Martin instead. Same weekend.

Earlier I saw a sweet blue Porsche 911, big whale tail on an open car trailer headed north on I94 towards the general area.
