General Membership Meeting

The CMMC board is in the process of setting a time and date for a general membership meeting for all club members. We'd like to know generally what days and times are best for most members.

Chicago Indoor Racing Karting May 30

Chicago Indoor Racing Karting Scheduled for Sunday May 30th at 8:45am

Given the fantastic response from the last karting event, we’ve decided to do it again. Again taking place at the newly opened Chicago Indoor Racing Facility in Buffalo Grove on Sunday, May 30th at 8:45am. We’ll be renting out the larger of the two tracks for the first 30 members that RSVP. Price will again be $40. To reserve a spot download this form, enclose a check and send it in to the club P.O. Box (listed on the form).

If we we’re unable to fill all 30 positions with members, we’ll open the remainder to non-members. Similarly, if we receive greater than 30 responses, we can increase the racing time by 15 minutes to accommodate an additional 10 drivers.

As many of you already know, May 30th is the day of the Indy 500. Chicago Indoor Racing will be broadcasting the race on their many monitors throughout the facility. There’s also a very good chance they’ll be broadcasting the race on one of the screens in one of their meeting rooms. For those of you lucky enough to be attending this legendary event, don’t worry, we will be doing more kart racing.
