Autocross – 3/25 – This year we will participate in four autocross events; the first to be with the Miata Club of Chicago. This event will take place at Alexian Field in Schaumburg. Driver and car race against time through a marked course, hardly ever getting past 1st gear. No special modifications are needed on your car and minimal safety equipment is required. Contact Joel-Paul Brossard for more details.
Spring Tune-up – 4/28 – This event will again be held at Mark Leuck’s Quality Tire facility in Willowbrook. This is Mark’s 27th year of hosting this event. We will then be going to Roundhead’s Pizza for a post-tune up party.

Spring Chicken Run – 5/20 – George Phariss will sponsor this event this year. The Run will start in Deer Park and finish at George’s home in Ivanhoe. The Run will be about 90 miles of driving – maybe 2 hours total.
Garage Sale – 6/16 – Once again there will be a sale of miscellaneous car parts stored in the CMGC storage locker. Many items are not available anywhere else and could be yours for a nominal price. Come by and look through the bins for unique treasures. Jim Evans is the contact for more information.
