What do you propose? Anybody can announce a meet, as long as it doesn't conflict with something that is already planned.

The RX is my daily driver, so I'm not afraid of a little snow anyway sign me up for another meet ..

I've gotta find my own cruise routes, not depend on other people to organize them.

Hmm well i've been trying to plan that Augostino's meet. However, Sonic's in Aurora might make a good meet and greet place. Depends on whats preffered...sit down with drinks....or outside in stalls. Opinions?

I wouldn't think so since they don't impose any time limits. If anything so we're not TOO rude we could always congregate in the giant parking lot behind it lol

there were cones in the back lot a couple of weekends ago.

we sorta liberated a few of them to umm.... block off a street


Sonic would be a cool place to meet up. We can go on late on a saturday nite and watch the cops chase the street racers from parking lot to parking lot lol

The streets look familiar, but it has been awhile since I've been back in IL.

Man, I can't believe I had to miss this cruise!!! I was watching the videos and kept shifting with my foot!!! I am dying to get out there and burn some carbon (all in the name of good rotary maintenance, of course!)

Something is just wrong with our household: we have two 8s sitting in the garage and neither of us could make the cruise!

BlueRen has a homemade camera mount that is super stable. I'll see if it's in the garage and post up a pic. He uses it for track days ... it mounts in the trunk, goes through the pass-thru and sits in the rear console.

Two 8s and no cruise, that's just wrong!!

mounting the rig in the trunk is a GREAT idea.. i figured it would be too low inside the pass-thru.. I'll have to see the setup I guess .. sounds like that might be easy to make with some pvc bits
Thanks! I look forward to the pics
