[B][I][U]ATTENTION EVERYONE: I RECEIVED A LETTER ON THURSDAY DENYING MY REQUEST TO USE TO PARKING LOT AT STARVED ROCK FOR THE MEET. I WILL LEAVE IT UP TO EVERYONE TO DECIDE WHY WE WERE DENIED USE OF THE LOT. I SPENT THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS SEARCHING AND MAKING PHONE CALLS AND HAVE SECURED THE USE OF ANOTHER STATE PARK JUST 3 MILES SOUTH OF STARVED ROCK. SO WE STILL HAVE VERY CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE 71 CURVES.
PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW THAT IS COMING SO THAT THEY KNOW THAT THERE HAS BEEN A CHANGE, I’M GOING TO ATTEMPT TO HAVE SIGNS UP SO THAT YOU THE ENTRANCE IS MORE VISIBLE.
SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS CAUSES ANYONE, I’VE DONE THE BEST I COULD TO GET THE WORD OUT ON THE THREAD AND ELSEWHERE![/B][/I][/U]

There has got to be more than two members in ILLINOIS let alone everyone in the bordering states!!! I know for sure we have MISSOURI, IOWA, MICHIGAN, WISCONSIN, and INDIANA cars coming to this event, we had most of them last year as well.
I know there is a large group from St. Louis going, also a large group from So. ILL came last year, which I was a part of at the time Since I was at SIUC finishing up school. See what you can work out.
D@mn!!! that would drive me nuts! There is also a group going from Indy. and this was email to all KY, IN, and IL members on here, so there might be more from down there about to join in on the fun.
Just finished creating a camera mount so that I can take vid of a pass through 71 to entice people to show up to the meet, hopefully filming today and posting mid to end of the week.
hey guys im down for the meet, it would be cool if we drove down there in a group. and for the guys that dont know who i am, my name is Jose and i drive a white 4 door DA with red wheels, i was at the meet at buffalo wings on a sunday . So let me know whats up on the group thing.
Ok everyone, Vid link posted on front page. I appologize for it being 9 almost 10 min long, you don’t have to watch it all to get the gist of what we’ve got here. However I did made two full passes through the area and have it split up into 4 video sections because the road kinda lends itself to that. The titles before each section explain it and I will have a map posted later tonight to show an overhead view of the “sections” i’m talking about. Enjoy
[b][i][u]attention Everyone: I Received A Letter On Thursday Denying My Request To Use To Parking Lot At Starved Rock For The Meet. I Will Leave It Up To Everyone To Decide Why We Were Denied Use Of The Lot. I Spent The Last Couple Of Days Searching And Making Phone Calls And Have Secured The Use Of Another State Park Just 3 Miles South Of Starved Rock. So We Still Have Very Close Proximity To The 71 Curves.
Please Spread The Word To Everyone You Know That Is Coming So That They Know That There Has Been A Change, I’m Going To Attempt To Have Signs Up So That You The Entrance Is More Visible.
Sorry For Any Inconvenience This Causes Anyone, I’ve Done The Best I Could To Get The Word Out On The Thread And Elsewhere![/b][/i][/u]
I’ve added maps for the location change as well as links to yahoo maps directions to the site from chicago and bloomington, figure this should suffice for everyone.
