clap,clap,clap...exactly! lol j/k but yes since we have people from out of state...anyone doubting the ease, we are doing this for YOU, so please attend the meet
AND COMING FROM NORTH [HEADING SOUTH]...you exit on tower, making your way to willow...IF HEADING NORTH, you exit on willow...same exact place, just exits are labeled differently for each side of the highway.

my friend listen up! these are the best streets north burbs have to offer: curves, you have no idea!! we are parking by skokie lagoons= 8 sweepers. back in my dumb days, hitting apex, i exited these curves doing 90m.p.h. so they are huge...also if we go to glencoe beach...
well here, look on map: willow, forest drive [or w/e, thats lagoons] to tower, east to make left on sheridan road.
ok sheridan road right there is very tight curves with elevations = dangerous!! and soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much fun. we can go around there plenty of times...one time ALL the way around this area = good 15mins cruising.
total time from parking lot to beach should be like 15/20mins...thats short for me, i can drive all day!

#88
sorry im just too excited...ill warm you guys up on sheridan, then third time around, im gunning it and see who's quick to learn...OK NO!, we're not gonna be dumbasses on this meet, but i had to memorize those turns to take them at 40m.p.h.ish which is too fast for them...oh i love it!
hey this is good advertising for the meet...yes! lol

do we need to have a back up location in case the weather gets shitty? i would hate for it to rain or something and we all decide to go somewhere else while the out of towners don't know where the hell we are.
maybe say meet at the lagoons at 1pm and if its raining we'll wait till 1:30 then go to the huge 5 level parking garage across from macy's at old orchard or something?

May be couple of you local guys can put up one Grand Central phone number (keeps your personal phone number hidden) for everyone so that those who are lost can call that number and any one of you can guide 'em - no push just volunteers who are willing to help!

again, heading south, exit is marked Tower...if you are ehading north, just look for willow.

I already know the weather will be perfect, a cool hi HP day, leaves fluttering down, and about 20 angry ACURA's ripping up the twisties ! We need someone to video all this. Damn I wish it was this weekend! 2-1/2 weeks is too long, she's aching for a road trip.
#99
well video i can't do but i plan on snapping about 400 pix that day. maybe i'll let you all do some runs down the ravines and i'll pull over and get out to take some nice action shots.

This is awesome that this is happening so close to home since I live in Wilmette. I drive a white 99 TL with some mods here and there, and I have no problem with making a lil drive from Purdue back home to meet up with you guys.

ok maybe forget that friend's STI, now that i think of it, maybe ONLY acura really, or if you previously had an Ack, im all for you coming like the Jeep SRT-8 and the BMW 335i i think we've talked about already. basically keep this on Azine unless you know people with Acuras...and if you previously had one, then you are DEFINITELY invited!
again, newcomers: MAP INFO= PAGE 3
