I don't pay attention to weather updates, most of the time the information is false.

Yeahh I just try to keep my fingers crossed. If it's nice out I'll definitely head out to Streets and cruise around after that.

I'm out of Elgin but my car is still apart. My goal is to have everything completed by May 12th.
1. New Kirkey Pro drag seat going in
2. New 4 wheel disk brakes (Mark Williams drag brakes)
3. Subframe connectors removed (completed)
4. Both wastegates rebuilt (completed)
5. Torque converter sent out and tightened up (completed)
6. Tranny filter and fluid changed (completed)
7. 12 bolt fluid changed out
8. LCA's lightened by removing material
9. LS9 Head gaskets swapped (may wait on this for mid year or fall)
10. New wastegate springs (needed to hold more boost beyond 23PSI)
11. Retune for 28PSI (may wait on this this for mid year or fall)

A few more things needing work till I'm back on the road.

Well I hope to see everyone there. I just through on a set of chrome zr1's. My car is red and has CAMARO across the windshield. I'm a younger guy, I'll be parked on over by Dick's Sporting Goods and I'll try to find a good amount of open spots.

There is a Dick's Sporting Goods store with a big giant lot in front of it. If your looking straight at it there is a Maggiano's to the right and a starbucks and some other food places to the left.

Villa Park is a far cry from Chicago... Too far north for me plus the car isn't up to par yet. Maybe another time.
