http://www.sbrscca.org/2013Calendar.html - South Bend Region http://www.inr-scca.org/SOLO2.htm - North-West Indiana http://www.indyscca.org/SoloFiles/2013SoloSchedule.html - Indy Region EDIT: http://www.scca-milwaukee.org/solo/2013/13sched.html - I believe I remember hearing from Bill Cook that Milwaukee uses a site right down by the Illinois border... could be wrong though.

Ut's a bit of a drive, but there are events in Champaign. http://ccsportscarclub.org/
I just moved here, so I don't know how the region runs events; caveat emptor. I'll report back once I dig my autocross tote out of the zillion boxes in our garage. |

If you're just wanting to get your feet wet, I'm a huge fan of the windy city miata club events, much more so than any of the others mentioned.

this is worth a bump. a friend and i are looking for some cone racing within about an hour of the illinois/indiana border near chicago. both of us just want to get into it casually. point's, trophies, or standings don't matter, the goal is tight and technical stuff to better learn and understand car control in a safer environment than parking lots and streets.
any new suggestions over the one's that aren't already listed here?
