Al, I just noticed you have over 500 posts. Can't really say your a lurker anymore can you? Have you installed those sways yet?

 

^ i bet there're still in his trunk!!! lol

hey joyride, did we meet awhile back at a jgtca meet? do you want to join the EVOLV group? if so, lemme know ill get you signed up

 

RSD, are you really reading this forum before 8 in the morning? Is that dedication or lunacy?

 

i claim lunacy!

yea i get the email notices when someone posts, so i tend to be here all hours of the day

i still plead lunacy tho ...

 

hey all, i actually got called "severly uptight" today on this here forum ... now THAT made me laugh a lot!!!

 

and its SNOWING!!! going out to shovel the driveway so i can get the shedevil out ... look out parkiing lots, here i come!!!!!!!!!

donuts!

 

"Severly uptight" what the heck are you talking about?

My car's nice and warm in the garage in Chicago. I've been taking the train back and forth from work.

 

Nope, waiting till spring. I have a extra set of urethane bushings, for these sway bars, if anyone is interested.

 

I guess you haven't been checking the time stamp on my posts.

 

so heres what i did tonight!!!



more pics here

 

Hey my car is inoperative freakin snow was pushin my car all around, and heres a pic from the day before......

 

Great pics RSD- this car is so much fun in the snow it should be illegal

I was tearing around town tonight in my RX8 taking my 7yo to ice skating and back... I didn't think twice about leaving the 4x4 Explorer in the garage. Our roads were horrible, but the RX8 was zipping by all those slow pokes with no traction. Before we got home, I went to the park across the street, turned off DSC/TCS and went power sliding and donut making... mmm... donuts

Heres more

 

yea it was a LOT of fun ... esp since i got there before anyone else. so it was virgin parking lot!!! too bad i didnt have more time, but i still had a blast. cant wait for tomorrow when i can go out in the sun!

tho i never would have gotten out of the driveway without the snow tires!

 

Nice

 

Yeah, we met a couple of months ago. I have not signed up yet because it seems like I have some other obligation every time there is a meet. I willl get around to sending you my info one of these days.

 

Yeah, I was driving a bunch last night and having tons of fun. It was amazing how much better the car was with the snows on (Blizzaks I had installed on Wednesday night).

Up here by me I saw more people stuck and in accidents this morning then I did driving 50 mi. last night. People are silly.

 

yes those silly people forced me to cut my fun in the snow short ... i was so worried about those stupid idiots in their SUVs who think they are invincible. hey, if theres an unplowed road, you probably dont want to be riding my bumper as YOU WILL NOT STOP. and i dont want to be hit by your idiot self either!!!

/rant

can you tell i was being tailgated the whole way home?

 

so everyone ... have any great ideas for where to meet on the 19th or 21st?

looks like we are going to try a suburban meet for the 19th and a city meet for the 21st ....

thoughts? suggestions? skittles?

 

Last time we talked, it was suggested that Woodale would be a good location (for the convienence of the visitors) on the 19th. If this is true, I will go out and scout locations this weekend. Does everyone have access to a car?
Will the city meet, on the 21st, be more like seeing the sights? Walks up/down Michigan Blvd/State St? Starting out a River North Tavern? Seeing the bums on lower Wacker/Michigan Dr.?
Just throwing out ideas guys.

 

i dunno, mebbe theyll check out this thread and reply on the car situation ...

also the city meet ... i dont think we'll be sight seeing (as i think they all lived here at one time) and it will be COLD! i think we should prolly find somewhere with CHEAP and AVAILABLE parking

 

I can't make either date, kids

Maybe we can do a mini Rhawb meet for all my followers on the 22nd, which will be my first day in town. Hope to meet a few of you guys!

 

How about the Schaumburg/Woodfield area for the 19th? Lots of choices for parking/gathering...

 

i just sent em all a pm to see where they are going to be staying and if they have transportation or if we will have to arrange rides and such ...

ive always thought the woodfield area was great for meets, but i guess it depends on where everyone is coming from and if they can get there ...

so speak up now you out-of-towners!!!

 

I currently have no transportation as of the 19th.
I'm staying a few miles south of downtown in the university circle / park area. My parents bought a new townhouse on sangamon.
I'm working the 19th but I should be out of the office relatively early and I don't know what's going on at the house yet. I should be available that evening but I'd definitely need a ride of some kind..

Woodfield is great. We could meet up at gameworks or something out there. I don't really care though, lol so I'm open to anything.
