Now that I'm working I don't have time to do this kind of thing, which is why I didn't volunteer to be involved in the summer meet.

That is still the best CL meet I have ever been to.

Thanks Vik, I got to tell you, it's the best meet I ever went to as well.

So many cool people and so many cool cars. I had no idea Supra's were such cool cars. But then I thought Lexii sucked until I got my IS350.

guys I got a PM and a good idea to help out with this...Paul I think also got the PM.

If you go to the Socal Section, I believe they are the ones, who are doing the EOS and they have the sig all done up.....I am sure you can see what I mean if you havent already!

Who can take care of this for the Chicago group so we all change to the same sig and have it link to our thread. Either Paul's thread or mine. More activity for the short notice and all and I sure hope someone is good with that kind of stuff and will help us out. I am going on 4 days with NO sleep and about as much as I can push myself here. Glad the wife and baby are coming home tomorrow and that I am finally home myself. I may get a little sleep before work and hope to have a nice relaxing weekend to get some energy back!

Just post up if you can do this for everyone and you create it how you want it!!!

Thanks for the help guys!

Hello Gentlemen...

Once I receive conformation, I will post direction.

I am sorry for the short notice but we can make this into a cool get together and celebration of the birth of PassnuJr.

Congrats, Mike.

Congrats again Mike! Good luck w/ the confirmation from McGrath. If they say yes, are they providing food & beverages? Good food? Door prizes?

Default ****food****

UPDATE:

I emailed a close friend/old co-worker of mine. His wife owns her own catering business and I sent an email to get some prices and options for the Saturday meet so we can have food. I will wait to see what McGrath comes back with for Sunday's portion of this meet. They have a grill at the dealer so probably makes more sense to have a bunch of meats to Grill out and enjoy the cars and meet new people.

I will post later or I will forward to Paul the details so we will keep everyone up to date.

Happy Friday Chicago!

Mike

Zack, let's firm up the details before we start spreading the sig around. I will probably make changes to it when the guys get back to me. Plus, we need to start an OFFICIAL thread about this meet because we have WAY to many threads and it is confusing.

P.S. If you want me to make you a sig, send me a PM with pics.

Agreed! Way too many threads. Maybe they could all be combined?

Yes Vik those are the dates

Please let us know what we need to do to copy that sig or if you need to email and or who ever wants to distribute it to everyone.

Thanks for your help! Much appreciated I spoke to Paul at 1am or so last night and these dates are firm. we are still getting things together but post away and lets get this going.

I have an email on the catering so I will call this weekend to see what they have to offer us. This is going to be a great time for those that make it.

Mike
