Chicago or Joliet will work for me. since I couldnt make it to Royal Oak this weekend, really wanna go to a meet sometime. I had mentioned the Four Winds Casino/ New Buffalo, MI a couple weeks back, but havent put much more thought into it since with timing and the Intense meet.

It's a bit short notice, but I've extended an invitation to these w-body meets to the Bonneville Club before, and have usually had a decent Bonneville turnout. It's at Herrick Lake in Wheaton on Saturday the 13th. If anyone would like to attend, please let me know along with what you're bringing to contribute to the meet from the checklist.

*Insert witty W-Body joke here*

I don't see anything keeping us from coming, at least at this point. We'll see. But if we do probably just taking my GXP, two G8s in convoy would be cool but at the same time twice as inefficient. :lol:

Sweet!! Now I can be even MORE depressed about the hunk of metal that looks like it tried to mate with a moving train, then sat out in the rain for the next few years that I call my car! :D

But yeah, if you know you'll be there for certain, let me know along with what you'll be bringing to contribute to the meet from the checklist in that planning thread link.

No alcohol allowed at the forest preserve. :evil3:

SSEi - Sorry I didn't see this sooner. Had a lot going on today. lf one of you wants to bring paper plates, and the other wants to bring plastic cups, I think that should do it for the things needed.
