I just wanted to say hello to everyone on the board/region. I'm in Joliet, Il... I noticed that there is a club in Crystal Lake but that can be a bit far. Looks like fun though... I'd like to wish everyone a warm hello.

Welcome to the area! I'm in Lockport, a town about 10 mins northeast-ish from Joliet. If you haven't noticed, Route 66 drag strip and the Chicagoland Speedway track are in Joliet! If youre talkin about an F-body club in Crystal Lake... forget that, there is at least one in Joliet I know of and probably more. You can cruise on out to Orland Park, thats where I always go.

Welcome man. You'll love rt66. Its a worldclass dragstrip man. Just bizzy as heck sometimes.

Im right in Romeoville, which is real close.

Let me know if your ever up for a cruise or what ever. I started a all v8 car club. Its still small, but were always looking for members.

Peace,
Mike

I just moved to the area too to start my first job with CAT. I live in Channahon, which is just west of Joliet. Let me know if you ever want to do anything, or just throw a wave if you see a black 1998 Z28 1LE with Michigan plates.

Where you at in Joliet? If you jump on I80 East(towards indiana)
the town east of joliet, which is new lenox has a big car show every sunday at around 5 oclock.

Heres directions.
If you were at I80 and I55, you would go I80 east for about 4 exits or 10 or so minutes and you will come up to Maple Street(RT 30) get off there, go right when you come to the light and go about a 3/4 miles till you see the ace hardware on the right, its called AJs restuarant you will see all th cars in the parking lot.

www.mfba.org is the best place to go for midwest F bodys.

Joilet Junior College is having a Autocross Tomorrow(Sunday) too, you can find out more info at www.mfba.org in the autocross section.
