How many of us in the Chicago area?

I'm interested in possibly setting up a meet in the next month or two and was wondering how many FRS/BRZ guys are here in the Chicago area and would be interested. I've seen a few around just not sure how many are here in the forum.

There are a lot. The majority of meets are organized on the FB page Chi-Town 86

This is a shot from their recent season opener meet, which only captures a portion of people who showed up.


The Midwest 86 Cup FB page is where a lot of the track day folks organize, it's a recently started division of the 86 Cup time attack series that's popular in California.

Nice, I had no idea there were some many around here. I just asked to join the group on Facebook, I'll poke around and see when the next meet is

In Chicago, I imagine the superior handling of the 86 platform helps save lives by allowing the occupants to dodge the bullets better.

Didn’t know there was one...no longer on Facebook. Would like to see some local 86s I barely see any ever.
