Default GLD June 22nd

Alright I thought I'd post this to give you guys a chance to come with us. A group of us are going to meet up at Wendy's at 3:30 in Lindenhurst, IL. We'll grab a quick bite and from there all cruise up together to GLD where we'll take some pictures of our cars in front of the gates. Then we'll go in and tear up the track!

Here's the address for Wendy's:
370 SOUTH ROUTE 45
LINDENHURST, IL 60046 US


For those of you that don't know this is a Real Street Drags night. We're going to make some timed runs before it starts though.

If you ever bring the Z down shoot me a PM. I have a Cannon digital SLR camara and a camcorder. I'd be willing to tape and take pictures of your runs.
Sorry but this only counts for the Z because I am not a truck person by any means and don't want to pay to see one run. LOL

Are you coming to the carshow in July? - https://ls1tech.com/forums/midwestern-members/728034-projectcamaro-com-summer-carshow.html#post7204333

Damn, id love to go, ill have to see if there is anyone coming from Green Bay or around here that i could hook up with cause i have no idea how to get there. Is there a deadline that i need to get in by?

As for racing the Z ive never done it before, and sad but true ive never even done a burnout in it, but i have left tread marks from 1st gear about 50 feet long into 2nd gear about 20 feet long, thats as far as ive gone. I still need more practice gettin down the launch and what not.

We might still head down there after we're done making some runs but we'll decide at that time. Personally I want to still head down.
Are you going to be at Gurnee tomorrow night? If so I'll personally make sure to make it down and I'll try to convince the other's to do the same.

Well I won't be there next Friday. We're going to Camaro Superfest in MI Friday morning and won't be coming home until Sunday night.

Looks like rain tomorrow. Who knows though.

I'll be in Gurnee (at work), so if the weather looks decent when I leave work I might head up to the track.

Yep. I'll be shocked if we don't get hit with rain tonight. Forecast or not, that map looks BAD.

weather channel and weather underground both say 10-20% chance of rain..

looking at the doppler, if I was a betting man which i am, I would choose 100%
