    O.K. We have had some folks asking when we are going to do another Drive.
    Chuck,(Chasking) has Mapped out a really great Fall Drive going down around the Joliet and Starved Rock area. Where we can not only participate in some,"Spirited Driving". But,enjoy the Fall Colors at Starved Rock,The River,etc...Lots of nice Photo Ops.

    However,there is the LAST F1 Race on Sunday the 24th. (Brazilian GP) Which will air around 11:00AM. FINALLY,an F1 Race that we don't have to get up early to watch...:)

    I have some choices to pick from. Please,if you are interested in coming along,vote whichever day works best for you. We'll go on whatever day shows the most votes. Also,we can't wait TOO Long,as,The Leaves are changing Color soon. Have started already,really.

    We'll probably meet at 10:00AM-10:30AM,leave at 10:30AM-11:00AM.Yortown Shopping Center Parking Lot...SouthWest "side". By Highland and Butterfield Rd's in Lombard. (easy to get to from anywhere) For quick and easy access to the I-355 tollway.) And this will only take a few Hours,so that you can get back home before Dinner Time. But,we will stop and eat lunch somewhere.

    If you have good Radar,and 2 Way Radio's,please bring them along.

    As of right now, weather.com is predicting temps in the low 60s with little chance of rain for Saturday the 23rd... at this time of year, that is probably about as good as one can reasonably hope for.

    November 7th definitely doesn't work for me. Any of the others are possible (weather permitting of course, Frank ;) ), but I'll have to be a last-minute addition. Dealing with a family health issue right now, so it's hard to commit to much.

    Yes,that sounds good,Chuck. And,If it's gonna be real crappy,then maybe we can make a "Rain Date" the following Saturday,the 30th. But,right now,I think we'll shoot for the 23rd. You have the Track day this Saturday. And,all of the Weather Channels that I've seen so far say this Sunday is a washout...But,you never know! Have fun at the Track on Saturday! (And,careful with that Car!!!...:) )


    Man,I'm Sorry to hear that,Jack.I really hope that it's not too serious. Your Family will be in my Prayers... But,hopefully,everything will be O.K.,and you can get out for a few hours and get some end of the Season Driving in. Haven't seen you since March!

    I'm not too worried about Rain anymore. Actually,My car got Baptized yesterday...Wife's car is in the shop...(Thank God,it's covered under Warranty) And,I haven't yet got a Winter vehicle...So,I had to take the Ferrari out in the rain,twice. Once to pick up Daughter from school. And,to get a loaner car from the Dealer...And,you know what? When I went out to my Garage this Morning,my car was just fine...:) But,I'm not gonna make a Habit out of it...But,if it happens,it happens...C'est La Vie...:)
