Went to it last year... there was like a lil corner of imports....but most of em are just purty lookin rides w/ icky paintjobs. i dunno if that made any sense, but maybe there'll be a bigger section this time.  Most of em were this team who call themselves Vector Racing...but they don't really race much since most of their cars are jus show cars.  They're from around my area.

Anyone going to the Chicago Auto Show this week?  I may be up there if I can get out of work, but I'm not sure what day yet.  It'll most likely be either Friday or Saturday...

Hey what time on Friday?  I'll be there with Eric, who's also on the list, (uiuc240 I believe to be his screen name).  We plan to get there around 3.

Anyone else planning to go tomorrow?

Anybody know when the auto show closes on saturday?  I'm thinking about coming over from Michigan since I missed the Detroit show this year.
