Update: Event Cancelled!!

Just got word that they cancelled the event due to weather.

Keep in mind that the track has to be dry the day before and the day of the event. Just because it doesn't rain during the event doesn't mean the track is dry.

Wayne is working on a new date now but it should be May 4 - 10th.

Keep an eye out cause alot of us have friends interested in attending so as soon as you see an oppurtunity take it. Its a HUGE bummer we have to wait over a month again but May should be nicer weather...I hope.

Byron has Test & Tune next Saturday the 19th and again on Sunday the 27th. I'm going to watch the weather and hit the first one that looks like it is going to have decent weather. Not a bad drive, you can do it in 1.5 hours even from downtown Chicago on a Saturday or Sunday morning.

Will do...Byron is a real easy trip for you. Depending on where in Elgin you live, but the fastest route for you is probably Randall to Rt 64 W. under 40 minutes most likely.

I stay near Randall Rd. and Rt.20 so I90/96 is close but if we go well we can see the real time it takes to get there from Elgin...

Gentlemen:

Please respond to Nick55's thread regarding the Midwest Meet and Cruise. All of you should make this event. The date is up in the air now due to your drag day being moved but hopefully we can schedule it soon (maybe even May 10th/11th)! I want all of you there, no excuses.

Also, ChicagoX: If someone can't make the 17th, please let me know! I am free that day just couldn't have made the April 12th day. My M6 probably won't be too impressive at the strip, but I'm in for some fun if a spot opens up!

Arrow 12 days until the tire smoke show ....

Just a reminder post for the track-hungry. The event is 12 days away.

Remember, there will be a Star/DAS machine at the meet, as well as a pro photographer.

LET will be providing track-side tuning, make your appointment now.

In addition there will be trophies and vendor giveaways. Not bad for a hundred bucks, eh?
