125' drag racing in the dirt

#1
Ok I live in the burbs of Chicago and this kind of thing is a lot of fun but there is not enough of it. Maybe there are events I don't know about closer to me. I know things are seasonal around here but there has to be fun things like this to do I may not be aware of. :shrug:

Forgot to add to that Rocco, local group called the "voodoo kings" (rat rod car club) are creating a mini bike club this summer. I was talking to the guy who runs the voodoo kings (Larry) and I guess one of the members is making a dirt circle track and a dirt drag track on their farm up near the wis/il boarder. I have to talk to him some time this week about my Clinton motor. I will see if there is any updates

Yeah, they are great guys. I had no idea they are out of Elk Grove, their shop is really cool. I went there to get some pin stripping done and Larry is great, showed me around and talked for a while. I guess they had this mini bike group before and are bringing it back. He had about 5 mini bike builds going in the back of the shop

That's awesome!! Can't wait to see it. I talked to Larry today, the face book page is Chicago voodoo minis. He said they will do 1 event a month at his buddy's farm where the track is going to be.

He also brought up the blood drive fest in yorkville, there are going to be races there for minibikes. I don't know why kind but they will have races. It's the weekend after torque fest

Been trying to make it safe without a wheelie bar, engine torque and new clutch making it difficult but wheelie bars in the dirt will make you crash. Maybe one with a 4" air tire stretched out back will work good IDK.

OK I do not do Facebook but is there any other way to find out where this farm is? Would be cool to attend some of these events.
