Gotcha. I doubt I will be able to go to both, but I will check to see if feasible.

I have never been to either of these events. Can you summarize what both events entail.

Thanks.

supercar saturday is an awesome experience. Think of it as attending a giant, mature crowd only, car meet where the Z is the cheapest car. Common attendees include Aventador, Ferrari 599, Bugatti, a dozens of other super cars. Then there is a long list of nice sports cars like vettes, Porsches, Vipers, GTR, M3, etc.

Search "Supercar Saturday Chicago" on google images to see what I mean. or go to their webiste: Supercar Saturdays

UTI torque meet also looks to be fun, I have never been but they just had one in Orlando and 450 cars showed up.Glendale Heights, Illinois (Chicago) | Torque Meet Tour – A 5-City FREE Automotive Event Series

Anyone here want to do some autox this Sunday? TSSCC's first event of the year at SEARS Centre. More info: Tri-State Sports Car Council - Welcome

I need to buy a helmet, any recommendations where to go?

Not really, I bought mine on-line a couple years ago, but don't remember which vendor. (safe racer or SummitRacing maybe). However, the club does have a number or loaner helmets available. So if you don't manage to get your own helmet before Sunday, you can still participate using one of the loaner ones.

Try a motorcycle shop.

Only problem with a motorcycle shop is that they might not have Snell SA approved helmets, only Snell M. SA is the standard for auto racing, M for motorcycles.

The M helmet is OK for AutoX, but if you want to do trackday as well at some point, you'll need an SA approved helmet. Most track day organizers won't allow the use of M helmets, SA helmets only.

and aren't they bringing in a new helmet where the old version will not be allowed in 2 years?

that I don't know...

So last sunday night at the corner of Ferry and eola road, there was a red 370 with yellow 3k HID bulbs....anyone here? Not a fan but just curious....

any exhaust mods?

Couldnt tell. I was going the other way and had my music turned up.

hmm, not sure really. just in our group we have 3 red 370Z + 1 red roadster 370z

It was a coupe for sure. Only thing I could tell were the insanely yellow headlights. To be honest, I thought it was a civic at first...

I was there today, got some photos of you out on the track.

I have a **** load of questions about the event, but it looks like a ton of fun and I want to try it.

Ill get the photos posted up somewhere and give you the link to them
