guys trip...race track??
 
A group of high school buddies are planning a trip to chicago May 15-19. Watch the cubbies, maybe play golf. But i want to look into driving (cars or shifter carts) options..is there something for 6 guys (with different abilities) to do in the chicago area?? love to hear your ideas. Joliet track??

There is an indoor go karting track called Chicago Indoor Racing. Not shifter carts but boy is it fun.

We have been there multiple times. There is also a bar/restaurant upstairs overlooking the track for after the racing.

Sid will probably chime in. He's been there a bunch. But he's still slower.

Ducking,

I have been to CIR only once. It was a great time.

When will they build one in Algonquin, then we can kill two birds with one stone.%/

Tim, unless you bring your Cobra, I think Joliet is out.:(

Contact Autobahn Country Club (in Joliet, Il) directly.
They may have outdoor karting and/ or BMW's available for arrive and drive. (Or bring your rental car.) (I can't negotiate their fancy new (activex) website.) http://www.autobahncountryclub.net/

Or: Ride in or drive a NASCAR (based) race car:
May 15th -19 Richard Petty Driving Experience at Chicagoland Motor Speedway. (NASCAR & Indy car oval)
