any of the Illinois guys go to the chi racing culture meets?

I've been to one, and went down for another but it was so cold that nobody was there.

1.5 hour drive from (around) Waukegan down to DG for naught :cry:

I feel the need to revive this thread in case any newcomers from Illinois have missed it :)

We Supra people need to stick together! :)

sounds like a pretty serious show, when you say racing you mean drag? If there were an autocross goin on I would definitly be there. The pics look cool I think I'll probably try to make it, so you just might see me there BUDDY. lol

Hey are you the guy I met at the Autocrosses in Milwaukee ( Miller Park )? I had the maroon mk3 and I talked to you for a bit.

Yeah almost exactly an hour north of Bloomington.
Small town, there are three other mk3's in town all owned by one old guy and all broken haha.
So if you're ever in town(for what reason i'd have no guess) and see one drive around, its me.

Haha maybe I'll make a pass through Peru next time I'm in Bloomington (have family down there).

How close are you to Joliet? I'll be down there in April for a bowling tourney lol

I'm from the North West Suburbs/ going to school in Peoria. Probably won't be seeing me drive around for a little while though, blown head gasket... And I saw someone mention Sound Performance for engine work, I was going to look into getting work done there. Are they expensive or reasonably priced?

They're about averagely priced. The guys at SP are very nice and extremely helpful. I like em. I've not had work done there, though.

NW burbs, eh? What city?

im over in Glen Ellyn but my Supra is back in Australia :(. Haven't seen many 70s in this area, saw a beat up one today but I guess there aren't many out and about being winter. I was at Elmhurst toyota the other night picking up some spares and an employee took off in his 86.5-89 MA70...sounded like an N/A and was manual - anyone on here?

Any chance you know Alec? The kid with the gray "show car" MK3? :biglaugh:

No, I don't know anyone who owns a supra. I have seen a few mk3's around here, maybe I have seen you. I have seen a super clean red mk3 a couple of times.

Mine isn't really super clean, but you may have seen it lol.

Do you remember if it had pignose or not, and spoiler or not?
