Street racing your fave place...(in the past !)

We used to cruise Duke's Drive In on the south side of Chicago. They would have literally 1000 people crammed in their parking lots. After they closed at 10 PM then they would race in a few different places. 107th street, Ridgeland and Sauk Trail, or Ridgeland and Vollmer Road. If you didn't have an old 60's or 70's car, they (the other cruisers) would not let you park in Duke's lot - and you didn't if you knew what was good for you and your car. They would send scouts out with CB's and make sure the cops weren't around and then call back for the race to go.

Ridgeland and Sauk Trail was the favorite place as it had about 300 feet of cement at the starting line which allowed you to get better traction than on the pure asphault spots.
