Default Illinois anyone?

Anyone in or around central Illinois? Looking for some folks and places to crawl. Getting tired of wheeling the corn rows around here....

Hey Halfj,

Load up your truck and come over to the Indiana GTG this Sunday. We are right off I-74 might take you about 2 - 2 1/2 hours to get there but it is a good place to crawl and meet some of the people from IN and OH.

I'll be back home in IL this weekend for a wedding (Vandalia), but won't have room to take my crawler. A friend of mine works at the Decatur Corr. Center.

Looking for places in the Peoria area. I have been in and out of RC's for several years. My brother-in-law bought a wheelie king and its all down hill from there for me... Tell you its like crack I was almost off it. Anyway I'm in the midst of building a crawler and just wanted some legal places to crawl and some friends to go with.

I live in Plano. I've got one spot thats fun to crawl,and could possibly be a good summer comp location for SCRC. I'm waiting for better weather to really check it out. I was in the last comp for SCRC at Rc hobbies,and had a realy great time. Can't wait for the next comp.
