Does anyone know of any race tracks around champaign-urbana, il that have racing classes for motorcyclists or at least a fairly inexpensive fee to get out on the track?

By around I mean within a few hours driving distance.

Thanks.

Yeah, I really wanna go too, but I will be in China at the World's Fair.

Is the race track they use up there open to the public on certain days for a fee? I have been planning to take my bike up there to show her where she was built, would love to take her out on a track to.

You might also want to look at GingerMan in South Haven, Michigan.

Blackhawk Farms is about a four hour drive from Champaign. But it is still the only track I'm aware of in the area.

There is also Gingerman about 2 to 3 hours(yrmv) drive from Chicago. There is another about an hour more, but I forget the name on that one. It is just NE of Grand Rapids.

Autobahn would be your best bet, Joliet.
