there is not enough seconds in the day to have it at joliet if they go at the same pace they do for test and tune. That place blows, you get there as soon as they open and still get only 3 runs in max if your lucky. Not to mention they are overpriced

Your right, Joliet is tough in many ways. I was trying to say there are some fast cars in the Chicagoland area and I think it would be a fast index. The track it self is beautiful, but i understand everything there is a pain in the ***!

It would be fun, but the SS def. isn't fast enough to run in a Pinks shootout.

Could be a few reasons....

-RT66 cost too much. The Pinks folks have tracks clamoring for them to come over, other tracks might not be like that.

-Gambling element. Might create an issue. This is why 1on1 format show is not held in certain states.

Rt. 66 is an excellent track, but whoever runs it IMO has their head up their ***, in all aspects.
