OK, so it looks like US41 is the track of choice for this sunday... Well, I was looking forward to a big group of F-bodys going to the strip this sunday, and it seems that I'll only be rolling with a handful of cars if we go to GLD, so I'm cool with caravaning to US41 if you Orland boys are interested in meeting up. I guess that since I can't produce a posse, I'll join one. 
I'll bring as many cars as I can. I know dsz28 and xttc2000 are in, and I have a couple cars coming with a friend of mine too.
Whattya guys think?

7am at McDonalds is when & where my crew is meeting up. i know you guys are coming from downer's grove, so we can meet you further along the way if you guys want to.
Yeah Mike, it's a good thing you can too, because i knew the 10th was a friggin sunday.
I think everyone should just lay off the alcohol for one night...Aw hell, who am i kidding...it would be funny to see 13 second reaction times

dsz28: Where do you want to meet me sunday morning? I think it's gonna have to be at 630 or so...
mdblack, think you guys can stuff your faces with some mcgriddles and wait 'till 7:30 for us? If not, no big deal, but it would make it easier on us.

the Mcdonalds is going to be a 30-40 minute detour for the west suburbs guys.
we should meet up somewhere where our paths would cross a little better.
if we go to the mcdonalds 294S to harlem then its probobly 15 mins or so down harlem.
i dont remember how to get to 41 so someone who knows the route can chime in on a better spot to get everyone together.

294, right after the lincoln oasis, you'll see a sign for 394
Take the 394 exit south, stay on it, it becomes like IL rt 2 and IN rt 1 or something... just stay on this road
Youll eventually hit US41 (it's well marked)
Turn right on US41, watch your speed
Keep watching on the left, and you'll see a sign that says US41 dragstrip 8 miles, it's actually 9.x miles.
It's on your left, you can see the tower from the road (unless there's fog on the cornfields)

Thanks, Mike, that is very helpful. I've only been to 66.
MDBLACKZ28:
How do we get to the McDumps from 294s? Or should we just meet at the lincoln oasis?
Chris
Feel free to call me at home at 630 964 4093 tonight or tomorrow. Too cheap to buy a cell phone.
