OK everyone, I am renting Route 66 drag strip for private use. We will have the track for six hours, with no one else there but us. We can have a total of 8 cars, including mine. The price is $250.00 per vehicle, which includes full track benefits, i.e., ambulance, fire, tree, track maintenance, etc.

250 for six hours of track time, with only 7 other cars is pretty amazing.... if you are interested please email me at wtk00@Hotmail.com. I need responses this week if at all possible.

Only 8 cars?

yep, for their private race day, they only allow 8 cars. I still am thinking about doing this if I can get anyone else to pitch in. I would pay more than 250 for this. When AutoWeek did the video shoot of Sarges Marauder, it was just me there for 3 hours, it was great not having to wait in line, or waiting to have the track cleaned. Once you have a track to yourself you can't go back :)

Tempting, mensrea... what day are you renting? I'm only down here in Downers Grove a few times a month, but would seriously consider it if it was M-Th.

I was leaning towards mid week... can you help drum up a couple more people? I have myself, a 69 chevelle, an AC Kit Cobra, a 8 second Oldsmobile (maybe) and a couple of other possibilities

I'll check around work - we've got some folks with some nice wheels who might like to hit the track. I'll let you know if I can get some interest going.

Come on you Windy City Marauders, get in line on this opportunity! Even if your bone stock and never ever raced before, you'll not forget this experience very soon.

Boy, wish I could be there to take part in that! I'll be thinking of y'all down here in Houston, and drinking a cold one to you. Better post some results! It will be interesting to see how different cars with different mods do under the same track/weather conditions.
