Title: Anyone in Illinois Interested?
Post by: KohlerPowered on September 22, 2009, 02:07:49 pm
I'm looking to get a group together in northern IL to have some drags.  This is in its beginnings, but we will hopefully be ready by the late spring/early summer.  Just seeing if there is an interest up this way for some organized drags.

My mower would not be suitable for drags in its current setup but..... they do have a mower drag race every summer at "the white house ? whyte house" in Fox Lake. There is a little mower shop and a bar there as well, usually a good turnout. You may want to contact them to get contact info for the poeple that race there. Good luck getting that together.  :)

Sorry I was away for a LONG time.  Job changes/school/not enough extra cash led me to get rid of the mower I had.  Now that everything has settled and I have extra income, I am going to be looking for another mower.

I am located in northern Joliet, About an hour south of Chicago. Any of you guys still interested?  Even if we don't get an actual organized club, Route 66 has open drag nights or I could talk to the offroad park nearby and see if they have a stretch of flat ground we could use for a day and get together as a group?
