Talking ATTENTION: WI and IL members: spring meets/cruises

Im in Kenosha Wisconsin and im trying to organize some meets and cruises for this coming year. One thing id really try to get is as many people as possible to do a cruise to Speed Inc's open house this year in Schaumberg Illinois. My normal group that cruises have a variety of cars as well. Hopefully lots of f-bodys this year

Sounds cool, I hope we can resist the urge to speed there. I heard one of the new Illinois laws are: if you are doing 40 over, then it results in an automatic impound of the car.

Id be up for some scenic cruises, along the great lakes or maybe the St.croix/ssippi waterway. If youre dumb enough to do 105 past a trooper why shouldnt you lose your car? Besides, Ive seen some of the deer carnage leftover from semis all thoughout illinois on the interstates, why speed with them ******* jumping around.

actually they are stricter then that.

20-29 over = 1,500 in fines plus a max of 6 month in jail
30-39 over = 2,500 in fines plus a year in jail

watch your speed guys.

slowing down or running are becoming the best to options. just saying.

Not sure where to meet for the cruise, I'm from the west burbs (Downers Grove), seeing who else is from there to go up with.

In the Quad Cities (NW corner of IL) .
If anyone's coming from Des Moines, IA City, or thereabouts and heading past the QC, I'll hook up with you for the trip.

Not going to stop me from putting my foot in it to be honest..... how about we go after the real criminals besides the person going 30 over on a lonely highway late at night, here in Rock Island we have plenty of other things to worry about anyways.

I am really can't what to get back to the track. I had got there last year at the end off the season and had a real good day for my first time. I had ran 12.25 at 115 and cut a 004 light. I had spray on the car but it wasn't working right. problem fixed and ready to go.
