Nice find, the on ramp from 171 (Archer Ave) to get on 55 (Stevenson Expressway) is pretty awesome. I had fun in the IS on that ramp almost everyday.

I am partial to the Sheridan / Green Bay roads that go up directly North and out of Chicago towards Waukegan etc...

LaGrange road gets cool as you go South IMO but that is far from the city.

I am a big fan of the North West section of IL out be Galina and the Mississippi river FWIW. It's the only part of IL that ain't flat

I remember my buddy with the Supra hugging that ramp back in 2001.

Very fun winding/hilly stretch offering 50 mph speed limit. Have a radar detector as cops tend to hide in the forest preserve inlets. Sunday early mornings FTW!!!
