I thought people used the Lincoln Oasis off 80/294 as a meeting spot. The oasis is right before the exit for 394 right?

According to the Illinoistollway.com site, the Lincoln Oasis is closed.

How about meeting at the Hinsdale Oasis ? Will some people pass that location ? Sure would be nice to convoy. Heck of a lot more fun that driving solo !!

Nice meeting some of you guys today. Sinr, JET, denise, chimpmonk (go sox!)
By the way what was with the trooper pulling over the black GTP!!!?? Its not like any of us were speeding or acting like idiots, we were doing 75 but so was every other car on the road.

JET, Sorry i didnt stop in at Hooters like i said, i started driving and i was falling asleep at the wheel, i had a long night last night and i had a 2 hour drive ahead of me. Anyways, sorry im bad with names but hopefully ill meet up with some of you again, i had a blast, even though my car didnt do much better than earlier in the year, I'll be getting the itch in the spring so ill see everyone around.

By the way Sinr, how did you end up doing, I left and you were still running, did you get any better times??

garbage honestly i hate that track, i think iwill live off of 66 i think that track is awsome, i couldnt hook for shit, i ran a 14.7, 3-14.4's 14.2,13.8 and 13.7

my best at 66 was 13.6 with alot less mods
ive added pem a 3inch dp and a 3" cutout , a dhp and a 3.0 pulley with 100 octane and new tires, im guessing alot had to do with the tires, but i couldnt hook if my life deppende on it,

my 13.7 run i had a 2.4 60" so i know its got low 13's in it just not there, and the water box guy had me do a burn out would stage me and then clean the track for 2 min and my iat's would raise 30* from the lanes to the time i ran cause of that a-hole, and kept telling me to go thro the water box, he couldnt understand that i didnt want to, so he just shook his head

I had a great time. Still can't believe I red lighted in the finals of the bracket race... :angry: Overall I had some good runs. I think the track was good if you were running slicks, I pulled 3 - 1.7 60 foots. Pulled a pb of 12.965 @ 105.67, and a best 60 of 1.783. I am really happy that my 100,000 mile car made it through 5 runs without breaking.

Good to see you guys and gals again. I am hoping to do some tuning and run some 12.7's or better next month.

I had a great time and it was great meeting some of the newbies!! Hope everyone had fun... Congrats to Dole on winning the brackets and Randy for second place! Also congrats to all those that got personal bests, I think almost everyone did!!!

now to the bad news..... Denise messed up the prizes from ZZP. (my brain is fried lately and I didn't read the email corectly) It was 2 fastest on stock pullies not two fastest overall! Oopsy! Sorry Paul and Jet. Hope you aren't mad and if you are, well good thing I am moving to MN in a few weeks LOL :lolsign: haha

So now I need whoever ran yesterday who has a stock pully to post up their times and those two fastest will win the prizes. ZZP donated a 3.4 MPS to the fastest stock pulley, and a press on pulley to 2nd place guy.

:)
