Yeah the Carpentersville to Boilingbrook one is a bit too much of a cruise for just to get out to the meet up location. April 27th would be fine by me more than likely except would you guys want to me going out at night or during the day time. Weekends are nowadays filled by making the dirtbike track haha

yeah getting up to Carpentersville might be a bit of a drive for some ppl. but the guys that dont want to do the drive can plan on at least coming out to the end "meeting" location in bolingbrook! would be a good time and good opportunity to meet other fbody owners.

Don't really care too much for rt66 as I am sure I wouldn't pass their tech inspection, and if I did would most likely be booted after my first pass...

I will on the other hand be at byron tomorrow from probably 9 until 1 so if anyone is headed there be sure to say hello to the guy in the silver turbo Trans Am

Okay so I got my wheels on & ready to cruise!! I'm worried to go to the track to blow my 10 bolt though with these 315's on there though haha. Plus I'm on a pretty hefty ticket right now so I don't want to be playing on the streets a ton 8) Anyone down for something this weekend?

A lot of Friday/Saturday events have been lost to poor weather this year. Looks like '13 is going to be a repeat of '09. Too bad.
