No, never ran there and I've only been there for 1 Pro National back in the day and had a little chitchat with Emig as he stood next to me watching some races.
Ive been to a track/practice in Valparaso,In. (sp?). Thats your direction a little and as far that direction that ive gone. That damn time zone thing always killed it for me...
Ive raced at Byrons, JolietMX, Sunset Ridge, and some track down south in Ill. Cant remember the name and I had to camp in the lot the night before.
Few more pics. Joliet night races. Plus 30 on the line. Im next to the dog house. A few from Byrons and playing at Ottawa with the Kids

Not yet. I hope we can get out there this year.
Have you ever been to Torch lake Micigan? It looks really cool up there, water is so clear. I think were going to make a long weekend trip up sometime this summer.

Well the time zone thing is ok if you go west (from where I am at) as I am on the same time as you guy's over in IL. I know what you mean by that time zone BS as I go to school in South Bend (no not ND) which get to be a pain for my early class that is at 8am there, 7am here, and I have to leave at 6am due to the morning traffic (not as bad as in Chicago).
Now if only it will warm up out, so I can get to work on a project car (83 Camaro z28). :mad:

This was one of my other hobbies, until i sold it last summer. I still have my 71 Pontiac firebird tho...no pics of that right now.
I also build computers...got stacks of parts that need assmbly right now.
I turned my passion into a business. Karaoke! When I got laid off my day job 5 years ago, I turned my occasional gig into a full time operation. I am now one of the biggest karaoke companies in the suburbs.
