Calling all 8's in the Chicago area- we've been talking about getting together in the Schaumburg area as a central place when the weather gets better-well this weekend is it!

So the question is - Saturday the 27th or Sunday the 28th? Weather forecast has chance of rain on Sat, high around 56... and Sunday partly cloudy with a high of 62. What does everyone vote for? Does Schaumburg still work for everyone? (I'm flexible on location)...

Let's hear some ideas/feedback...

hmmm.. sounds good to me.. where in Schaumburg? and what time?

G8rboy

Someone mentioned one of the parking lots at the Woodfield mall... lots of parking places... And there are several places to grab lunch around there.

Early afternoon on either Saturday or Sunday works fine for me...

Let's try and do it, the weather is supposed to be good

That would be a great way to spend a Sunday. One of those days I have to install my rotary accents and splash guards, but i'll be sure to check the board and i'll be there if time permits, it's way too close to my place. Be nice someday if we could get a dealer such as Schaumburg Mazda down the street to sponsor a real meet!

G8rboy

Sounds great... maybe next month we can do something more formal with Schaumburg Mazda after we see what kind of interest there is.


Based on input so far- how does Sunday, 2pm sound?

mkboy1313

I'll vote yes to 2pm Sunday. Count me in! The south parkinglot along Golf Road opposite Borders/Starbucks might be a nice open spot near the road. Maybe right in that corner. I'll hit the lot tonight after work (i'm 2 min. away) and see what might be the best spot.

cruzdreamer

ok...I will try and make it. 2pm sounds fine.

TitaniumRX8MD

Sunday sounds good to me

At Woodfield, there is a great spot just east of the Firestone across thestore along Golf, across the street from Borders. A great flat area that is empty even on weekends. That would be a great spot, just drove through it this evening.

MEGAREDS

Damn... won't be able to make it this weekend.

TitaniumRX8MD

So what' the head count for those going?

cruzdreamer

Talked to hubby......definitely going....you will meet my Silver baby, hubby and son too. See ya at 2pm.

I will make every attempt to be there Sun at 2. But if it's that nice out the golf course might be callin my name. hehe

TitaniumRX8MD

So guys did we decide exactly where we will meet near Woodfield Mall @ 2pm?

G8rboy

Let's go with mkboy1313's suggestion a couple posts back:

Sound cool with everyone?

TitaniumRX8MD

That's sounds fine to me, looking forward to meeting you all. I hope a lot of 8's show up. Plus you guys can try out my Stage 1 and Borla together. It's awesome.

G8rboy

Sweeeet! I miss the burble of the Borla I had on my Miata... can't wait to hear it on the rotary.

TitaniumRX8MD

Just watched the news and they say it might thunderstorm on Sunday

G8rboy

Crap- just saw that on weather.com- Saturday looks like a much safer bet for decent weather.

So, can everyone make it on Saturday afternoon instead?

TitaniumRX8MD

I can do Saturday. I hope everyone else can. Calling all Illinois 8's

BoxerGT2.5

So is it Sat or Sun??? at 2 that is

G8rboy

Saturday, 2pm (70% chance or thunderstorms on Sunday).

BoxerGT2.5

Ok cool....should be there. And I was hoping to have my midpipe on by the meet. (Ain't here yet)

cruzdreamer

I should be there.....hi ho silver....away!!!! sat. 2pm
