Just thought I'd warn folks about the I-80 construction down around the race track. Check yer GPS's, and map out an alternate route if you plan on coming in on I-80. It's a nightmare right now.
If you're coming from the north, slice your way through downtown Joliet using the Route 53 (Historic Route 66) signs. Downtown Joliet is nearly vacant on a Saturday or Sunday, and very easy to pass through. Just watch for the Route 53 signs as it sort of zig-zags through downtown.
We were at the Chicagoland Speedway last week (right next door to the dragstrip) for the Nationwide race, and it's a very easy drive.
Also, if emergency parts are needed, there's a speed shop only about 10 minutes from the track called Winner's Circle in downtown Joliet. Very well stocked. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
