I have a Silver SS/SC and work in Wood Dale, off of Thorndale and Wood Dale Road, so I use 83 to get there. The only thing is that I don't really go on the Elgin-O'hare so it must have been someone else!

brifriinc.... that was not me. I live over in bartlett! I work from 6am - 3pm, so I rarely make it till midnight

drums2k6..... I spotted a silver SC again this weekend in bartlett going west on Stearns
off RT 59 (I had plans so I could not chase). Now might you be the silver SC I caught up to on I-294 west or north on the way to I-355, maybe a month ago?

anyways... nice to meet you guys!

Yeah, but that was different. You'd feel the same way if you busted your ass tuning an LSJ with a rebuilt motor, pistons, head work, 10.5:1 compression, etc, etc... and the only response you got was the guy basically talking smack for 2 weeks about it...

I was REAL pissed at Rice for a while there...

He fully rebuilt his motor, and expected it to be tuned in 2 days... and then got real pissy when it wasn't perfect...
