Default 2013 Street Machine Nationals return to DuQuoin,IL

Can it be true? After a 15 year hiatus..... The Street Machine Nationals are returning to DuQuoin, IL.
In the 80's this was the ultimate premier car event......which I have many fond memories of.

June 28th-30th...... Who's going?

If you'd like a glimpse of what this was like......here you go.

Great location! We were there three times for the SM Nats.

Was there again a couple of years ago when the HRPT used it as a stop. Might have to think about this! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Dennis,

I recommend the Holiday Inn in Mt.Vernon, IL.

I was &quot;The Hotel&quot; in the day.

I might see if Boomer is bringing his Z down. If so, I might ride with him.

This will have to be a must go to show for us as it has been a very long time since I attended one. It will be interesting to see what peoples definition of &quot;Street Machine&quot; is now vs 30 years ago.....

I will be attempting to convince a friend to bring this.....

Literally the last time it has been out of the garage was 1986.

Participated @ Street Machine Nationals in 1984-85
