thx for the car comments guys.

i really enjoyed meeting you all. my GF at first didnt wanna come, couse we went to some other car meets kinda things and there was bunch of young idiots pretty much, i said that in the nicest way possible, and me and her both grew up hanging out with older more mature crowd, so we both liked it and had fun, it actualyl was better than i epected. too bad we couldnt stay longer.

jeph, my GF tought u were the goofiest/funniest person ever, shes like that guy is just so funny, and she couldnt stop laughing at the way u took that pic on the ground, it came out great actually with the lights and everything. celbrity hehehehe, too funny

sammy, ill email you my email address, we def gotta go autocrossing like we discussed, cold weather top down story was a classic.

bmussatti, forget about the warranty nonsense, come and rip it out w us at the track

and Nick, damn man u still got the tan from the honeymoon, ill never get that tanned heheheh

overall i had a lot of fun, it was great to bring out the ladies as well, now i have some people to look forward to bumping into at the PCA events and look forward to more local meets like this.
we definitely gotta do this again.

i brought my camera with me as well, but left the battery for it on the desk , u know me and pics

I completely forgot that March 17th is St Patrick's Day but I have no plans so unless ya'll want to change it I think the date is good.

So, I think :

Chills
djomlas
Sammy

Are in...

How about ?

bmussatti
super66

What do you guys think about Chicago Indoor Racing :

http://www.chicagoindoorracing.com/

We need 8 for group rates ( I think we paid $80 for 4 races back in November )

So, if we include spouses ( I know my wife and Sammy's gf would race ) I think we would be set.

Or would ya'll rather do dinner / drinks etc ?

Nick

We don't have any plans at this point for that day either so let's get together!

The go karting sounds fun but my vote is for dinner/drinks.

We're still in (it will be myself and my GF again)! I have no ideas as to where but I'm game for anytime during the afternoon/evening. For the sake of a starting point how about 6:00?

Well, you guys missed another great get together...

7 of us met for a nice Mexican dinner at El Molino in Carpentersville ( I know, Mexican food for St. Patricks day ) , then a nice ride through the twisties in Barrington, a little "off roading" at Penny Road Pub, then some green beer at Jersey's in Hoffman Estates. We also met a local celebrity :

Hope everyone had a great St. Patrick's day !

I'm going for a ride

Nick

dj,

Boondock Saints ? Great movie !

Sammy said he will not be able to make it, but I will see you on Sunday...

xclusivecar, my wife and I were at Motorwerks yesterday from 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm ( getting an oil change ). What time were you there ?

BTW, they have 2006 Boxsters still in stock for $11k off sticker !

I had my eye on this :

Early...9:00 in the morn...had to pick up some caliper bolts, a dash light, and one of those splash guard looking things in front of our rear tires. Didn't take the time to look around the place although I probably should have!
