It was the summer of 2017, on an early Thursday morning. The air was dense and foggy that morning. The hood of my Camaro had water bubbles all over it. I was so anxious to slide in the driver and meet up with my friends, hear the sound of the motor rev up, and most importantly cause some havoc. With the whole day ahead of me, I was ready to put the pedal to the metal.

As i turned the key and slammed it in drive i gripped the steering wheel tight i left off the brake and pealed out onto 116 heading west. I turned right at the four mile corner and headed all the way to goodfield. When i got to goodfield i hopped on the interstate and drove on that for 30 miles til i got to Pontiac. When i got there i headed back through Flanagan and benson then finally i made it home. With a long drive, i felt like a new

The Chicago Auto-Show probably the biggest auto-show in the state of Illinois. Really nothing special about it. Waking up at 4 a.m. in the middle of February to drive in a car for hours to look at other cars causing you to accomplish nothing useful in a day.
