wuts up dude, cicero here well there is the lombard cruise nights, then there are plainfield cruise nights, both of these always packed, then riverside cruise nights, one of the mechanic shop we work with so we get first dibs on parking
then here in n/w indiana i go to highland gyros, then i go down the street to i belive o`hares?? sports apperal, n/w indy guy help me out here i am drawin a blank
nothing to do in winter except the world of wheels which in my opinion has gone down the tubes, its nothing like it was back in the day

In the winter... thats when we change our setups for next year... I just gotta clean out the garage to get a few cars in. UGH... There are cruise nights almost every night of the week, but I cant think of them all of the top of my head.
Welcome to the area. You will have a blast going to some of the shows and cruise ins this coming spring. Hope to see ya around.

You're in McHenry? I can't remember if these are the eacts days, but I do know of these by you..
The Ford dealership has gatherings on Wednesdays, usually a lot of nice hot rods, some new stuff as well.
Culver's off of 120 has gatherings on Thursdays, lotsa hot rods, not much newer stuff..
Gurnee Mills McDonalds on Fridays, a hot rod club gets control of pretty much the entire lot, usually great turn outs up until the sun goes down then a bunch of rice shows up..
That's all near by you, when you get more into the city there's even more. (Strats, Meijers, etc..)
But like twizted said, pretty much every night there's something.
