Barrington's cruise night is on thursday nights at the Harris Bank parking lot my Einstein's Bagels. Lake Zurich has one on tuesday nights in the Binny's parking lot off of rt 12. The Arboretum cruise nights are on wednesdays by the theater there. Palatine's cruse night is on fridays in the old Menards parking lot on Rt 12. They all start after Memorial day except Palatine's, they start next friday the 27th. Most cars get there about 5-7 and stay till it gets dark. Its harder to park at Barrington unless you get there early, but they have spots on the street for big trucks.

I should be going to the Palatine Cruse night this friday for their opener. I heard a roomer that they are moving it again to somewhere in Mundelein but I am not 100% on that info. As of now I will be there (old menards lot on rt 12) about 6:30pm, as long as the weather is decent.

So now you can join the Convoy of trucks headed up to Poofstock. Should be at least 6 Illinois MV's heading up there this weekend.

Just checked, no cruise night in Palatine, they canceled that location. Not sure where its moving to next

Work on joey dr., Hopefully I'll be adding a M923 to my driveway soon! I've had the M1008 in the driveway for 1 week and already recieved a complaint from a neighbor. I'll let you know about the show as the date gets closer, not sure what my work schedule will be.
