thats how I drive, but I have a sedan. I drive by there all the time... On 94 by fields BMW, there is a nice straight away just north of old orchard to central ave where there are never cops, thats a good place to hit 150. Same on 290 heading east near 83, you can hit 150 there too.

On 290... After the Lake Street Exit and around the next bend heading east, they sit on the far right side. So you have from 83 to that bend to let is loose.

actually there are cops sitting on the tower ramp and they sit just past the 294 spur on the right side both going north.. and of course the lake cook ramp going north bound there is always a cop on the right side of that on ramp.. mostly going 70 won't get you into trouble..i still slow to just below 70 there.. usually i am going 80-85 on the edens. it makes me livid when someone is in the left lane and not passing.. i don't care if your going 65 and it's 10 over the speed limit.. pass dammit!!!! oh and i forgot at the old orchard on ramp going north i sometimes see state troopers sit there.. but we all know 90% of the time you are in the clear going all the way from the junction to lake cook. but they are out there from time to time.

^ yep. I used to fly up there with my buddy in his M3 in HS to indoor soccer up at 41 sports club. that was until we hit 125 and almost got hauled off to jail one night on the way back for wreckless driving. Good thing his dad was a lawyer.

I hit that same run (to north Arlington Heights) in a hair under 2 hours in my craptacular Toyota Tercel during my senior year of high school in 1993. Engine kept heating up.
