I'm in Streamwood/Schaumburg, IL. Anybody know where Mustang scene is around here?

Hey guys, I've been in Schaumburg area of Illinois since the beginning of this week and I still haven't seen mush stangs or souped up American v8 muscle around here. mostly what I've seen so far is rice infestation. If anybody knows, post here the usually Mustang scene/strip around here. I'll be around here until Sunday morning. I did see a very nice 200x Cobra, a souped LX with some skinnies up front, and a 200x Saleen. Anyway, if anyone knows where to go up here, please let me know. I gotta feed the hunger.

THanks.

Better watch it, theres the Super Chevy Show in Joliet this weekend! You may want to stay away from that. Lucky for me, I will be in Jersey.

Hmmm. Some friends were mentioning the Joliet track, but I was just wondering if there was a Mustang street scene around here. Doesn't really seem like it from the cars I've seen so far, but then again, I've only been here a few days and nights. Anyway, thanks for the input andy. Maybe I'll go up to the shop where I saw the rally nice looking black, souped up LX with skinnies and 3" hood and ask the guy there--- just depends on how desperate I get in the next day or two.

Unless me and my buddy run into some Midwest Ford guys, me and him are the only 5.0's that cruise the streets in my area (20 min away from Schamburg). Last weekend we went to The Streets Of Woodfield and showed the ricers real American Muscle. There must have been a Viper meet up there too. Had to be at least 20 of them. Try midwestfords.org to see if there's any meets around where you are.

Well,.... thanks anyway. I just really wanted to see if there were any Mustang people or MustangWorks members around this area. Later.
