Default Central Illinois get together 11/12/05

One last time this year. I hope it's not snowing.

I have had the owner of the Hot Rod Body Shop offer his shop for us that day. It's right off I55 and easy to get there. We can grill what we want and have a few drinks befor winter sets in.

I will also see if we can drag out a few sponsors for this one.


Who's up?

www.hotrodbodyshop.com
2024 Eagle Rd.
Normal IL 61761
309-452-5252
Carguy@hotrodbodyshop.com.

This is a body shop that does only custom work. Nice place lots of parking, and he offered us his shop for the day.

I'd go but I'm going to US41 for the last Street Car Chaos this year, and probably my last track outing this year.......

Count me in, sounds like fun as usual.

Steve, are you posting this on other non-LS1 sites?

I'd guess it's around a 75 min drive on I-55, give or take a few. Depends on how fast you're moving.

Takes about 75 min to get here. The places to watch are the curve around braidwood, the rest area in Pontiac, and the bridge in Lexington. Laser hot spots for the state troopers.

What kind of food and drink do we want?

I have a grill that I will bring. I am debaring on moving the keg fridge or just letting people bring whatever to drink.
