sweet :)

Chicago would be a good place to have a little meet... I could make the drive, and I suppose a lot of people in the great lakes area could as well.

I'd second that, a springtime meet would be awesome! There are infinite places around here to have a meet.

As a White Sox fan, I'd favor having a meet prior to a Sox game in Chicago. :)

spkrman · 11-22-2006, 04:17 PM

well I'm in favor of having a meet on the south side :) More convienent for those coming from elsewhere.

Could also have something out west... but honestly I think it'll come down to who just finds a place to go.

johnnyfive · 11-22-2006, 07:15 PM

i would be down for a meet in chicago

XSarge · 11-23-2006, 01:22 AM

I don't get to GLD much since I work 2nd shift. Maybe I'll check it out next season.

spkrman · 11-24-2006, 05:00 PM

Could possibly have the meet at my work - www.land-craft.com in crestwood, IL (just south of chicago)

I'd say enough room for 20-30 cars, I doubt we'd even see that much. Probly run some deals on some car audio/paint/performance stuff too.

Could break out the grill, and all that good stuff :)

What do you guys think? Date wouldn't be so important, since nobody would be coming out of pocket for this and making reservations, maybe just chip in on the burgers/dogs.

ChinoCharles · 11-24-2006, 08:32 PM

I'm in.

Black Yaris · 11-24-2006, 09:44 PM

I can meet up with Chino.... Chi-town is straight up 80/90 for me... about 4 hours or so.... I would like to have a meet with some Canadians and some Americans, somewhere between Windsor and Toronto? BTW Chino pay up on your header so we can get them things ordered

spkrman · 11-25-2006, 05:42 AM

any ideas on a date?

I'd say give it till spring for better weather, and to allow the community to grow a bit :)

The shop is approx 10 mins north of I-80, so you OH guys coming over wont have to trek through chicago, and its approx 5 mins from 294, so the more northerly folks wont have to deal with downtown.

ChinoCharles · 11-25-2006, 02:25 PM

It is Chicago, so it doesn't get warm until pretty late. Aim for July maybe?

july dam? lol

Normally by may its in the 70's, june is normally a pretty hot month too... I mean, it could be as early as april.

July is a little late heh.

ChinoCharles · 11-25-2006, 11:40 PM

Hm, I thought Chicago was colder than that. Cool then, aim earlier! Someone just say the word...
