good car shows in chicago

Any good car shows coming up this year around the Chicagoland area? I know Westchester is every Monday (live music also there) Elmhurst, Lemont, Downers Grove....
Anything else?

Lets get tons of camaros to take over these shows.

Re: good car shows in chicago

Elmhurst usually does something late summer called Cool Cars Under the Stars where tons of cars show up, including a lot of thirdgens. Last year Downers Grove would have a carshow every Friday in their main street area but I'm not sure if that's started yet this year. Strats on North Ave in Villa Park right outside of Elmhurst has big turnouts every Saturday. Once we had a Thirdgen takeover there.

That's fine because lately it feels like Strats is filled with nothing but punks trying to race everyone anyways. Haha
