About 3 hours from Madison. It's south west of Chicago. I'm going as a spectator as well. I have a couple friends that are competing and I've been promised a ride. :redspot

We are planning on leaving early, like 8 or 9am.

7:30 - Gates Open
8:00 - Tech Inspection
8:50 - Mandatory Drivers Meeting
9:00 - Practice starts
3:00 - Competition Drivers Meeting
3:10 - Single Run Qualifications
4:30 - Top 8 Tandem
5:45 - Awards/Cleanup

The Top 8 Tandem sounds cool.

I will be there. Our shop is sponsoring the event and giving prizes out to the top three finishers.

I believe we are going to have a tent set up showing some of our powder coating plus we have a driver (possibly two) in the event.

our site isnt complete yet but it should give you an idea of what we do.

www.cmwerks.com

we specialize in powder coating and performance installs/repairs. we have full welding capabilities and a great team of techs.

we are currently building an e30 but between the powder coating and daily work there isn't a lot of time to spend on it.

if you want any other info, let me know.

what kind of car is your friend going to be driving in the event?

I believe they are both driving 240s with sr20s. One of them may be a turbo KA though.
