Hoffman Estates cruise night?

Hey, is anybody still going to the cruise night in Hoffman Estates, in the McDonalds lot. Is it even still going on. Last time I was there was last year and the cops were really trying to break it up. What's the deal?

That McDonalds is actually in hanover park Yeah, I go there very often. If anyone decides to go PARK IN THE MCDONALDS LOT. Do NOT park anywhere else. If you park anywhere else, you get a nice $75.00 ticket. If anyone sees me up there, make sure you stop by and say hi.

I was just there friday and saturday nights, and it was chaos. There is so much crap there, it is like a zoo. Not to mention the heavly police patrol. There were between 6 and 8 squad cars there the whole time!

Dont go to Barrinton and Irving again. They are putting an end to all the cars and BS being there. They WILL give you a ticket for anything and everything.

Yea I was up there in my daily driver (AWD Eagle Talon) donut at Crispy cream and the cops pulled me over saying my exhaust was loud. Which it wasnt loud buy the car looks faster then it is.
Its only doing 300hp legly
Good thing is that I wasn't driving my 86 TransAM with side pipes. its a true dual 3 inch flowmaster exhaust that exits in from of my rear tires.
This mod gave me like an extra 80 horse.
If any one wants to meet we should meet somewhere no in cops central.
Also 'd like to meet other 3gen members. And you can check out my 5.0, I am trying to make it the fastest 5.0 in the state!

I got a "Loud Exhaust" bullsh!t ticket on Barrington Rd by a Hoffman Estates jerkoff cop at on a Friday night back in July.

With all the B.S. tickets they have been giving out, I do not go there any more.

yeah I got a $50 ticket for going to Taco Bell to eat. The reason why I chose taco bell instead of mcdonalds is because I didn't want to deal with all the bs and I still get a ticket. Hmm.. I can't even stop by a restaurant on my way home anymore. That bs. and I hate hanover park
