I was in the same towns in addition to Willow Spring, Lemont and the North side of Chicago in my Corvette today. I left the Corvette in the parking lot at work and walked home. The drive to the West suburbs will be fun tomorrow

First drive was yesterday!! Off for the air pollution test as my plates expire at the end of the month.
Failed the test. Something about not having enough mile to recalibrate the system. (I did have the battery disconnected for a while)
Looks like a few more miles and then my car becomes someone elses car next week.

Most Excellent.
Just don't forget that all your AR 15s were previously lost in a boating accident.

If not the ZR1, then well, you know. Lol. I know where your headed and I came real close to going to GATS at 1:30 pm today, but ended up a little closer to home at Article II in Lombard, as I had not been there to window shop in several months.
