Ok guys, time to plan out the next one. Lets find a place around same area as last time. I have been looking at Starbucks and most of them have smaller sized lots.

I think shaumburg is a good location that is more or less centrally located so we can stick with it for now. Plan for this one is meet for cars and coffee 11 am, cruise around for a bit, and then lunch if interest is there.

I'll start a list going again so we can see the interest.

This is tentatively for this Sunday, April 1, 11 AM, if weather is good.

There would be another one there if I could ever make it. :shakes head: My plane from Nashville doesn't get in until 8:40pm. My March is super busy, but the only weekend I've got stuff going on in April is the 15th. So hopefully I can make a couple next month.

Upcoming schedule:
April 8th is easter so probably no meet that day.
April 22 we will be having a cars and coffee premeet, followed by a cruise, to ChicagoZ season opener. It will start at 10 rather than 11 am.


By the way guys, I updated page 1 with pics, and the 2 upcoming events. :tup:

Ok I updated the meet location information on the first page.
Panera Bread
1140 North Plaza Drive, Schaumburg, IL

here is a map of where we can park:

Attachment 43643

This is the lot for Panera Bread , and according to the map there is a Starbuck there. However, I did not see one in sreet view. If the lot is crowded the back up location is the Dominicks parking lot on

Higgns & Meacham Road.

1293 East Higgens Road, Shaumburg, IL 60173

17 is about 3 weeks I think so you should get tracking number in about 2-2.5 weeks.

skasmo 03-29-2012 07:47 PM

I love my FI exhaust you will not be disappointed with the wait. I am installing Gen 3 intake next week

That's right by me. You playing at Seven Bridges?

ZMan8 03-30-2012 03:37 PM

Just an FYI guys this is a shine only event due to many of us not driving around in the rain....plus a cars and coffee event is just not fun if its raining outside. The weather for Sunday as of 1 pm today is projected as 70 degrees, scattered thunderstorms, 40% chance of rain. I will follow the weather closely and post updates here tomorrow. Please check back.

If it looks like it will NOT rain, this event WILL be happening.

thank guys, I'll keep you posted.

Thanks to those that came out today! Was cold but good time.

No cars & coffee next weekend due to Easter. First page has been updated with the CHicago Z premeet/cars& coffee (April 22). Also, we will probably do a cars & coffee in 2 weeks (April 15).
Happy motoring :tup:

BlueZair 04-02-2012 12:19 PM

Zman8,

Sorry I missed the yesterday, I just didnt get the message :)

Count me in for this coming April 22,2012, are we picking the time around 10ish? or around noon?

ZMan8 04-02-2012 12:39 PM

The premeet is 10 Am and ChicagoZ season opener starts at 12PM. At 11 am (depending how close we are to Park Ridge) we can leave to cruise to the ChicagoZ location.

ha yeah, we need more color at these events!

ZMan8 04-03-2012 11:09 AM

NFSZ86, when you do your FI exhaust, if you do it yourself, I would recommend an impact gun. I'm trying to wrench off the bolts on the stock exhaust and they are pretty much stuck on there. I have a 22" breaker bar and nothing. Applied liquid wrench and i will try to hammer a closed wrench tonight

I decided to remove the stock parts and will let you know when it's time for the FI.

NFSZ86 04-03-2012 12:39 PM

Thanks for the info =)) ^^^ can't wait =))

ZMan8 04-06-2012 01:07 PM

So I found out I wont be free next Sunday (15th) morning :thumbsdown:. If you guys want to do Cars and Coffee still on that day one of you can help plan it and I will happily keep updating this thread with info. Otherwise, we are still on for the 22nd 10AM!
