Of course the one Friday I decide to go into the office, it is gorgeous out. I should've driven the Z instead of taking the train! :shakes head:

I bought the spacers same time as the swifts, haven't had a chance to replace the studs yet.

b15 06-07-2013 01:59 PM

What spacers did you get?

You pretty much have every mod I plan to do lol. Next time we meet up you'll have to take me for a ride so I can get a feel for everything.

I will try and make a couple Sundays. All you Z guys are pretty far north. We need a Western/Southwestern Suburbs Cars & Coffee too :D

I understand, living this far north it takes 20-40 minutes just to get to a major hi way. I've made it out to the twin peaks and willow springs events. Both took about 1-1/2 hours to get to. Heck this coffee house is 20 minutes for me to get too, but its a perfect venue for a cars n coffee location.
Maybe someone could pick up the torch for the southern guys and set up a c&c.

Until then hope you can make it out to a few.

Yeah, I don't mind a nice morning drive (heck I go for one every weekend and love the C&C idea) it's just having to take local roads all the way North. Sadly there's really no "quick" way to go from Naperville to East Dundee. 355 is way too far east so my only option is either Randall or Rt59 all the way up. I used to work in Crystal Lake and that commute was terrible. I think I counted some 45-50 lights from my house to the office taking Randall Rd.

I don't think we have too many Z guys out this way. I guess I need more "car" friends! lol.

ZMan8 06-11-2013 04:47 PM

What if we alternate every other weekend?

I wouldn't mind a night event occasionally. Friday sounds like a good night.

I like Fridays as well.

The Dimer 06-12-2013 02:38 PM

I'm out this Friday, I'll be moving, but I like the idea in general.

b15 06-12-2013 03:56 PM

I'm free Saturday if people want a mini-meet?

jlo370z 06-12-2013 05:08 PM

see this is the part where someone is suppose to step up and take the lead on that LOL

thats why i took sunday morning coffee ;) i was already doing it LOL

ZMan8 06-12-2013 05:23 PM

Ok I'll see about organizing something on Friday evenings for an hour or 2. Since it's summer would be great to pick out a location where food and or drinks are available outdoors.

Things that come to mind are Ice cream/frozen yogurt places, fast food type restaurants (culvers, sonic, als beef), outdoor bars (or bars with patio/rooftop)

I may be free.

Anyone else interested? Sunday is father's day so I will not be able to attend Jim's cars and coffee.

I know the area somewhat. There's tons of restaurants near yorktown in lombard. But its always a congested area so probably not ideal. There's always dave and busters....large lot, food, games and drinks.

Thanks for the Father's day reminder, totally forgot

ZMan8 06-17-2013 03:06 PM

So who is free and wants to have a Friday evening meet?

b15 06-17-2013 03:25 PM

Count me in. I'm typically free Fridays

jlo370z 06-17-2013 06:38 PM

i will forsure make some of these based on location/time and where my work has me that day, but forsure im in

ZMan8 06-18-2013 04:57 PM

ZMan8 06-19-2013 12:28 AM

We will have 2 back to back premeets for this event. One will be Cars and Coffee in East Dundee hosted by Jim Lock and then a later pre meet where everyone will join up at Old Orchard Mall in Skokie.

We will then cruise to Evanston.

Premeet at West Dundee:
8-10:00 am
The measuring Cup Cafe
217 Barrington Ave
East Dundee, IL 60118
10 Am cruise to old orchard

Premeet at Niles North High School Parking lot across from Old Orchard Mall:
11 AM-11:20 AM
9800 Lawler Ave, Skokie, IL

It's across the street from the back side of the mall. The high school parking lot is on the north end of the campus.

Jsolo 06-19-2013 09:45 AM

^^, Zman, why not just park at the high school parking lot across the street. It's a weekend so unlikely anything will be going on. People less likely to get lost :)
