We are newbie's too and we live in Plainfield.

We own an all Red Cooper S. We absolutely love it. Are you folks planning on doing some AutoX's this summer?


Did you see that the Mini Club is planning a trip to the Dragon. Our family went down last summer in our Audi and had a blast. 318 turns in 11 miles. It is incredible...

Welcome to the MINI world of Motoring Kathy. Please join the Chicago MINI Motoring Club. It's a good group of people. Most events tend to be more oriented to the north, but that's a factor of more members in that area. Last Fall the driver was to Starved Rock Park though. There are several member down your way.

Hi,



We live between Plainfield and Romeoville, just off Airport Road, down Budler then into Weslake.
My wife drives a Black MCSCa with White Bonnet Stripes and Carbon Scoop and Boot Handle through Plainfield, (Airport then Right (North) on 59) every morning at about 8:45.
We have been known to drink a pint of Tetley's in Sullivans occasionally!
