So I got to thinking... if there are other y-blockers in chicagoland, maybe we could get together for a cruise night or something?  Im in the north-west suburbs (near lake zurich, et.al.) and there is the Volo auto museum nearby.  Also a dog n suds that has a big cruise night every saturday, an operating drive in theater in mchenry, and cruise nights in downtown richmond on fridays.

I know further south is friday night cruise nights in wheaton and downers grove, and elmhurst on wednesday.

Im asking because my wife and I try to do some of these, but we RARELY see any other y-blocks (except for the little t-birds)... might be fun to meet up with a few others at one of these events....

Any thoughts?
