Default Streets of Woodfield

What's with this place being a hang out for bikes and cars on Sunday nights?? There was a lot of nice vehicles there last night....some really knucklehead bikers though driving all stupid on the Elgin-O'Hare. Is this place always like that on Sunday nights??

Just another hangout for gearheads i guess. We were there a lot last year being "knucklehead bikers" Most likely be there this year too with the cars instead. Only problem w/ streets is there are alot of ricers and teeny-boppers . Other good places to meet up on the weekend are photos and the McDonald's just off kirchoff.

ewww.. streets of woodfield is 75% ricers and the rest crotch rockets. It is interesting to drive through once in a while but thats about it. spend to much time there and you'd end up driving out with a carbon fiber wing, Body kit, and strobe lights and stickers all over your car. lol!



The forest preserves off 53 and higgins is Busse Woods..
the first Grove in Busse is the hangout for gearheads until the forest preserve police catch on and start limiting the amount of cars going through and start giving tickets for no front plates, loud exhaust, blackouts, tinted windows.. ect.. ect. Usually that grove gets soo busy early in the spring/summer you had better have an hour of time to kill just to drive through becuase it gets that packed.

Street's of W. are a bit young but are entertaining. How is the Mcd on Kirtchoff, is that happening more so than the old Taco Bell or BK on Roselle?

The one off Kirchoff has an older crowd so it's alot more relaxed than the roselle area (aka less rice.) Lotta cool cars over there and def worth going there I think

Talking aobut different things here.. Legit cruises and night time hangouts.

Kirchoff Mcdonalds? you mean the old wed night car cruise? thats moved down the street a block to the dominicks parking lot (at least it was last year). That cruise was jam packed too last year anyhting after 4pm and you didnt'get a spot in the main cruise lot.

the same people that run that wed night kirchoff cruise were also doing cruises at the Fratos in schaumburg and Menards parking lot at barrington and higgins in hoffman estates mon nights last year. I'm assuming its going on again this year.

as for the night time hangouts...

I'd just stay away from BK in schaumburg.. Police hace cracked down and with CueCanDo super popular now the lot there is always filled with cars from the Cue.

My wuss friend in a calypos fox body stang cruised out to stratford over the weekend and said it was decent for it being soo early in the season. Hooters near woodfield is a good spot too.. its always been a quiet hang out but more people know aobut it now and BK is most likley dead so I bet hooters will get bigger.
