Post From Chicago?

How many of you guys are currently residing in the Chicago area? Or near a neighboring city (Milwaukee, etc.)? Thanks.

Work in Illinois Center downtown.

Live in the northern burbs.

This board will be a wealth of info.

You'll have to autocross and DE with the Chicago region once you get your car.

Enjoy

Excellent! Nice to see some fellow enthusiasts in the Chicago area.

Alexander, I actually work in Merrillville. Ever get up to Redimac's? I haven't been there in years, but certainly have fond memories of speeding to New Buffalo for what at that time was considered the best burgers around!

By the way, my wife keeps bugging me to join PCA Midwest soon. Is it a pretty active group?

pca here is very active

rallies, autocrosses, concours, track days, some excellent beginner schools/sessions, the largest club race in the nation, social events, etc...

well worth the 36 bucks, or whatever it is now.

Rumster:

Make sure you get up to Road America in Elkhart Lake, WI. It's a great track that is not too far of a drive from Chicago. PCA-Chicago weekend on Labor Day weekend is great fun.

Rumster- We probably get to Redamacks about once a summer. A good friend of mine has a New Buffalo beach house (and an old 911 S Targa manumatic)so we stop on the way. Going back to Merrillville, you should try the ribs at Wagner's (in Porter, access via the 22B exit. AS
