Hey, guys. I was just visiting this section of the forums to post about our next Northern IL w-body meet. It's actually this coming Saturday (July 30th) at Herrick Lake in Wheaton, IL. I know a few of you have been to one of these meets before. Well be grilling out there. I'll actually be bringing everything. You just need to bring yourselves, your cars and $5 each to contribute to the cost of the food and supplies.

Details on the official info is here: http://www.w-body.com/topic/55130-north ... july-30th/
And discussion about the meet is here: http://www.w-body.com/topic/55106-whate ... ng-thread/

If you have any questions, or know you can make it for certain, please let me know ASAP so I can add you to the list of attendees. Need a fairly accurate headcount so I know how much food and supplies to bring.

I'd be down for a Chicago meet especially if Matt or Ryan goes.

I won't be able to go to the w-body meet this weekend though on short notice. These next few months I'll be pretty busy getting the GP done in time for boost season. I'd love to be able to drive it down that way though for a meet when it is finished!

Plus, some of us Chicago folk (hopefully more than just me anyway), will be coming up to Detroit in less than a month.

I know I'm a year late (new 'ville owner as of two days ago), but I'm about five minutes slow drive from Herrick Lake - so if a mini meet that my stock '01 SLE would be allowed to attend is ever planned (there or anywhere else in the Chicago area) I will be there schedule permitting.
Hmmm, here's a list of cars I've owned: Fiat Panda; Fiat Strada Cabriolet (on the list of the ten worst Italian cars ever); Subaru Legacy (biggest money pit ever placed on to wheels); Hyundai Accent; Hyundai Elantra; Hyundai Sonata; 2xKia Sportage; Honda Element; Nissan Sentra; Buick Rendezvous (blew engine, had it replaced, got t-boned a month later); Kia Rondo (blew engine, replaced under warranty, still going 'strong'); Eagle Talon TSi AWD 5spd (most fun I've ever had behind the wheel); Toyota Solara (RIP, another engine toasted) and now Pontiac Bonneville! I think that is it.
