Drifting in IL?

[Moto-Mucci]

Are there any IL/Chicago based drifting clubs, sites, events, forums, etc etc?
I've searched and can't seem to find any. I'm looking to take up some form of racing as a weekend hobby so I'm trying to attend some events to get a feel for the genre.

Omg, yes. One of the sickest tracks I know of is around your area.

I don't know of the local community website, but I know Touge Factory (www.tougefactory.com) is up there on those tracks.

I'd shoot them an e-mail asking for more info.

[Moto-Mucci]

What track are you talking about? I just moved here - I'm not familiar with.....anything, yet.

Hey clubfr.net is the main chicago and midwest drifting forum. All of the tougefactory guys are on there. There is a few with e30s on there.

[Moto-Mucci]

Yea, I registered there like 2 weeks ago and it hasn't been accepted by the admin.

[agile30]

whats your log in name there? I can send a mod a pm to accept. or pm me with your email..... Where are you located in chicago? have you ever heard of chitownm.com either?

[Moto-Mucci]

It's Mucci, same name as this one.
I'm North East, at Diversey and Sheraton.

And no, never heard of it. I'll check it out. Thanks

Alright sent them a note to approve. They had like a forum genocide a few months back due to alot of inactivity with users. So nearly everyone had to re-register so they have it so someone has to vouche for you before you can be accepted.But ChitownM is a bunch of locals a few e36's mostly e46's but a few e30s and a few e9x's. But they have weekly meets when its warmer out... You dont stay too far from me im over by Diversey and Cicero.

[Moto-Mucci]

Oh yea? sounds good. I'll be looking to get to some meets and events when it gets warmer out.

...and after I get coils and wheels hah.

dude just do that shit on the street

I heard the best locations are schools zones around 1-2pm.
It's like that sweet scene in downtown Tokyo on fast and the furious were the crowd splits to allow them to drift through - only replace the nimble full grown adult crowd with 70lb pre-teens carrying 40lbs of backpack.

[gazellebeigem3]

[Moto-Mucci]

We can get shirts made that say "I Drift In School Zones For Drugs And Alcohol"

[gazellebeigem3]

That was the 2nd time I signed up, and I get this notice when trying to sign in now: Sorry, we could not find a member called mucci, are you sure it's correct?

Is this site even in effect anymore?
