Yep, Snake Road repaving is finished. Too bad they didn't do the whole road.
Sorry, I couldn't help myself:

What time would we be back on Monday? I'm assuming kinda early since we are going for brunch. Anyway, I am pretty sure I will be attending, but not sure about a guest yet. I'll let you know as soon as I can.

I'm going to blasting around the Palos Woods area roads tonight around 6:30. Nice smooth roads, with some curves and elavation changes ( for illinois ). Usually lots of sports bikes and exotic cars out and around that time.

Hey Kat,

We will be leaving my place around 10a heading north to Lake Geneva, driving a loop around the lake to Geneva, putting us at our lunch spot about noon. From there the quickest you could make it home would probably be about two hours. The real question is how long will we spend at lunch and chatting in the lot about cars before we head home. I wouldn't be surprised if we leave Popeye's around 2p. Of course, you could always leave earlier if you need to.

Hope to see you on Monday,
Todd

I'd love to join you guys now that I'm back in the Elise family, but I don't think I'll be able to make that early. I'll let you guys know if I can get things done in time, but I kind of doubt it. Have a great time!

Your car?

Good point. Dasmoofler has some other roads in the area we could easily hit. I doubt anyone would argue with less talk/more driving.

However, if you want us to show you the best roads, you'll have to disengage the warp drive, Captain Kirk.
