I'd be up for it, but my car is going to be down most of the year working on my new setup. If you are going to be in B-town...let me know! My buddies go to the track quit often. Mostly 9 and 10 second Stangs. Or if you guys ride four-wheelers.

A few of us are meeting up at my hardware store on friday to go to the track that night for cordovas midnight mayhem. Its in brimfield right in the middle of town and right on the way for anyone going up i74 to cordova. So anyone heading up from peoria, bloomington, or anywhere east of peoria head on up. I think we are meeting up at 7 and leaving at 8, but now one of the guys on a crotch rocket wants to push everything ahead meeting at 6 and leaving at 7. Just message me if anyone needs directions, but its impossible to miss Brimfield.

the crowd in champaign definitely isnt mostly high school kids, there may be a few but everyone is pretty cool. If no one is at Friar Tuck, check out Hollywood Video on Green and Neil. Usually no one is out though cept on weekends.... I can be caught cruising around most friday/saturdays pretty early.

I haven't seen the people around grand prairie or willow knolls yet this year. We were cruising around last saturday (my 2000 camaro, 98 mustang, and 6 different 600-1000 crotch rockets) and all we saw were a few cars in the shopko parking lot. It was a beautiful night but no one was out.

come out to the TCC event on May 12th in Bloomington (use to be held at Ks now its over by Von Mauer (sp) ) I'll be there with my z and there is usually 200+ cars if the weather holds up.

should be a decent amount of people out Sat May 5th because thats the parkland car show so usually there is a ton of people who hang out afterwards and cruise.

I only had the CRX for about 4 months and i bought it with the mods it has done for 500. another guy i raced a couple times was one with a reed monte carlo with a flow master exhaust sticker and a fow racing sticker. he didnt seem all that cool but oh well. i pretty much just hang aorund with my 5 friends and thats it. which one has a 07 gt and the other has a 98 z. but yeah the nxt met i will definately b there cuz now i finally ahve something to show off. unlike my crx that has like 3 huge holes in each side of the doors. haha
