Here in the Chicagoland area we're blessed with many well organized and well attended "Cruise Nights". In a 25 to 30 mile radius, I can go to a good cruise night virtually every night of the week. You could also never see the same car twice.

Here are some pics from a few of the past summers. They are from Crystal Lake,Il., which has on a pretty summer evening hundreds of cars and people. What ever your into, you will find it there.

The cruise takes up the majority of the old downtown. There's alot of "power parking" but, there is a steady stream of cars cruising the two intersecting main drags. Here is a small sampling of the kind of rides we love here.

The last three are Badassed. This Roadster was driven to the cruise by a 'ol school grey beard. He said he was taking it to Bonneville in a couple weeks. He uncorked the headers and gave a bunch of us some sweet music.

It brought the cops hustling over to stop the show. The car was awesome. I've never seen this car since. Anybody know anything about it?

Those are some nice cars. I think a visit to the Chicagoland area might be in order to check out a few of those in person. Thanks for sharing http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
