Maybe, and for the LSD, no, but I plan on getting one because I need to get traction..

I wouldn't waste my car at such places. Most of the roads at these places aren't long enough while others aren't wide enough. Seen too many accidents there. Just bringing my car is a risk.

OK Mr. Big Body Kit, just make sure you stay in the right lane with the rest of the fancy show cars and leave the racing to us big boys with our fast cars and I asked your g/f if you could go with me to the races and she said no cause it was too dangerous for novice drivers...I tried but she didnt buy it ,sorry but youll have to stay home this weekend.

I used to cruise my BB Buick down Archer many moons ago..oh the memories.

Grew up at 103rd & Kedzie. Just be careful, I'm sure it's even more congested now, cruisin' down Archer.

Come to the next meet. Surely either Kevin or Chris will. My car is still being completed.

I'll be more than happy to give a couple rides. within reason of course

As for this thread topic. I like to stretch the cars legs on the street sometime, however, I keep most of it on the track.

Where and when is the next meet going to be?
Right now I don't have a lex. I used to have 92 and 97 Sc300 both automatics "that's why I sold them"
after that I bought me 92 Sc400 Sold it for the same reason. Right now I'm looking at this 93' SC300 5spd. with 120k miles on it for $5000. If I actually buy it I would like to get a turbo kit that's why I'm asking for a ride b/c would like to see how fast it is with turbo.
Right now I'm driving a 93' Audi S4 2.2L turbo chipped around 280hp and 330TQ. I could go the Rs2 way and get around 400Hp on stock internals,now the problem is if I want to keep the S4 "4 doors + all wheel drive etc." or get this SC and add a turbocharger. Hmmm.

What part of a Chicago do you guys live?
