Quoted from the News section of goodguys hot rods about this weekends chicago show. Hope to see some illinois and surrounding people this weekend :thumbsup:



"Harry Daviess, Goodguys VP of Event Operations just called from the Chicagoland Speedway and could barely contain his excitement over this weekend’s 2nd PEAK Chicagoland Nationals. “You should see this place,” Daviess said. “It looks like a major league baseball stadium. The grass is almost neon green. Everything is so clean and ready for Goodguys. This is going to be an awesome weekend.”

The weather is also shaping up to be chamber of commerce perfect. The National Weather Service is calling for sunny skies and high temperatures in the low 80s all the way through Sunday. Last week when hurricane Ike hit the Midwest there was some flooding in the state of Illinois but Daviess reported that the Chicagoland facility was unaffected.

In other event news, the vendor midway has been completely sold out for this weekend and Goodguys swap meet coordinator Jeff Johnson reports that he expects this year’s swap meet to nearly double in size.

Rad Rides by Troy of nearby Monteno, Illinois has confirmed that their latest rad ride – the “Notorious” 1970 Nova will be out getting thrashed on in this weekend’s Street Challenge Autocross. The Autocross is scheduled for 9am to 4pm both Friday and Saturday (with an hour lunch break at noon) and is open to all registered event participants.

Another popular event highlight will be the Saturday evening track cruise which begins at 4pm. Every event participant will have a chance to cruise the hi-banks of Chicagoland Speedway! Pick up your track cruise tickets at event registration. For a complete look at this weekend’s 2nd PEAK Chicagoland Nationals, visit the official event website here: www.chicagolandnats.com"

Just came back from the show. The Nova is nice (not to take anything away from the Nova) but... The Ringbrothers Camaro might just steal the show. That is one nice car!

Man! I forgot to say I did hear it run :). Sounds like it would suck in small farm animals thru the intake. I swear I felt my pant leg being sucked in when I walked by it....SWEET!!

Is this car coming out to SEMA??

I'm dying to see it... and if it is going to be there is it going to run in competition on Saturday?


Man, this car makes me want to go out and buy a Nova.. bad


Very nice! :thumbsup:

That car is so freaking sick...man,I'd love to thrash it!:unibrow:

VERY nicely done Nova! :thumbsup:

Nova in Joliet
 

Thanks for the comments. We went both Saturday and Sunday. Show was awesome. Talked to a lot of people showing all the stuff that was done to the car. Nova ran great and went through the autocross and we even took it out on the big oval at chicago speedway.

Picked this up there.
More stuff to come.
