FBI invited to Hawk Chevrolet/Windy City Autobahn event!

[Paul Workman]

The ZR-1s have been invited to attend a gathering at the Autobahn Club track in Joliet, IL this coming July 12th. We'll be allowed to drive our Zs on the track, which, if you don't already know, is an excellent track!

Yeah, that place is on my list to check out, now that the other place is (apparently) closed. Elwood is a very short drive to the Autobahn Park as well; just a couple minutes (about) south of the Rt 66 Drag strip (on IL 53, for you not familiar).

Stay tuned. As for weather...who knows, right? Wouldn't be the first time my car got rained on. (Might as well make it 5 out of 6 outings so far this year it has "RAINED ON RED"!)

UPDATE!!!

Per Dom's suggestion, the Silver Dollar Restaurant in Elwood (see East Central Region (http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread.php?p=228849#post228849) page for details) is the new rallying point on Sunday morning around anytime after 8 AM (for breakfast/coffee) before caravanning together up to the track less than 5 minutes away.

See you there!!!

8-8:30 sounds good. Looks like we may need towels and umbrellas. Hope not.

Yeah, it always seems to rain on my car. Maybe I should bring Ami's Z instead! (I'd bring both, but for want of a trusted driver. She ain't too trusting where her babies are concerned!!)

Well...it is what it is! I'll shine it up like a WAXER might, and hope for the best anyway. But, if it gets wet...well...so what else is new??? (That last outing for the pizza night last month was thee worst rain I'd ever driven through, and she didn't miss a stitch and my O2s are mounted laterally too!)

All day the weather guessers have been saying "afternoon possibility of (rain)". The forecast % probability has improved from 60% to 50% since yesterday

Hope burns eternal!:dancing

Paul, 30% chance at night, It is looking better and better day by day.

Fingers crossed.

Weather channel is down to 20%, I will be driving in later today.

GREAT, ROBERT!!

Local weathercasters are calling for evening shower/over night type stuff. SO, it is looking promising!

Ami and I had dinner last night at the Silver Dollar Restaurant (rally point on Sunday) there in Elwood (just a couple miles (?) south on IL-53 from the Route 66 Drag Strip/Chicogoland Speedway). Nice, roomy place! And, less that 10 min. from the Autobahn CC track (for those that are curious!)

So, FBI'ers et al, even if you aren't interested in driving the track, the public gets in FREE. (FYI, To drive you car on the track will cost $20 and pass inspection between 8-10AM. Would love to see ya there!
