Hi all. Thought I'd get the thread started for the May meet if you wanted to have one. I have the June meet, so somebody else is going to have to get the ball rolling on this one.

I'm all up for a cruise and meet..I'm not that good at planning, so I'll leave it up to the rest..Someplace not to far from Chicago or the 'burbs, so we can get as many people is always good..

fox valley wouldnt be bad at all i enjoyed the ride home but orland would be that much better.

SS SCHGD

anywhere is a drive for me...But hey, it's a car, it needs to be driven....(or you guys could show up in dekalb....College girls in the Summer weather are nice to look at)....maybe we can get some Rockford guys out too?

ss schgd i got the infinity sub installed on the stock radio looks super clean but i need to swap out the stock speakers cause they sound like shit with the sub.


and i vote for Orland Park as the next spot. and we can get some real hot wings from hooters!

NSChiCobalt
04-18-2006, 08:13 PM
Orland Park would be cool, the b/f is out there so easy for me :twothumbs. Buuuut def. a no go if the cruise ends up at Hooters, haha. :thumbsdow

04-18-2006, 11:00 PM
make a vote for orland or FVM?

Halfcent
04-18-2006, 11:00 PM
I have to vote for Orland as well, only because I have to plan the June meet for the Naperville Aurora area and that would make it three in a row in that spot.

NSChiCobalt
04-18-2006, 11:15 PM
Orland :twothumbs

CobaltCowboy
04-19-2006, 01:03 AM
okay, so forget about hooters. didn't mean offense to the women folk. i just love dem damn wings. we can most certainly find a more appropriate spot.



............in Orland Park of course.

SS SCHGD
04-19-2006, 01:07 AM
Cowboy, any pics? The speakers aren't to bad to change out, doors are easy, rear deck is a bit of a pain....(I had to run all new speaker wire cause I put a Amp to her Speakers, but you shouldn't have to) look forward to hearing it next meet....(who was looking for the stock Sub? I could be talked into removing it for the next meeting if your interested in it....

As far as the meet, if it's on a day I can make it, I'll be there, even if it's in urbana...

CobaltCowboy
04-19-2006, 02:46 AM
here's thos pics. i do plan on adding a second amp. looking to hang it upside down in the trunk. will this effect the amp at all? i want to keep trunk space and noticed i got a vent under the passenger side seat so i would rather not install it there.

Fox Valley Mall again.

Four corners in Woodridge! 75th street and Lemont Rd by the white castle

Great Lakes Dragaway

I've never been to a dragway, I think it would be fun to go and run too, any of them

wikkymaster
04-19-2006, 02:18 PM
well rt 66 has test and tunes on every tuesday where all street cars can race, however i think its 40 bux to run your car for the day, but its fun and worth it if you get there early at 4 when they open and nobody is there yet

04-19-2006, 03:47 PM
BW2 is a good spot, huge parking lot. Don't see a reason why we would have a problem....just a thought

my car was almost totalled out. 16,000 in damages! her car= >1,000
So I got a carbon fiber hood, projector headlights, new blower and new pulley, poly motor and trans mounts, custom painted cold air intake(body shops painters idea!!!) and some other miscellanious things. Cant wait to get the car back! Should be another week or two at most! So you all will see a 280 WHP cobalt ss hittin the streets this summer hard. I will race for cash also! Also the car has a 90% chance on going into HAHN for their TwinCharge set-up! on 6psi will be doing 450 whp! so ill let everyone know!!!

Its going to be open to every car though not just cobalts. so feel free to bring all your friends. We will be going to a spot to race also so bring cash incase you want to get down.

no one spoke to me about pics. sorry about that but if their pissed they should have at least said something beforehand. i'm picture happy so count me outta that meet.

we do need a date for this may thing and i found a joint in schaumburg that will allow us a dyno day for 5+ cars @ 65 for a coupla runs if anyone is interested.

how does may 13th strike ya?

NSChiCobalt
04-25-2006, 11:28 PM
im too broke for that, spendin the lil cash i have on my custom intake. and i was kinda hopin for orland as well, but if it ends up bein schaumburg ill be there with my baby but just to hang out, see some cars, no dyno runs for her just yet

CobaltCowboy
04-25-2006, 11:32 PM
the dyno day has nothing to do with the may meet. i just started typing and didnt think much of it. we would need a months notice for the dyno.


may is still on in orland park right?

SS SCHGD
04-25-2006, 11:32 PM
I'm probably one with a pic posted, didn't know they didn't want them posted, I'll take em down... Anyway, I can't say I'm going till there is a Date, as it is, I'm broke for the month, going to Las Vegas at the end of it.....So If I get a Date I might make it.

hey about the pics. they had asked everyone who was takin pics if they were for themselves. and they asked that they not be posted anywhere. it was mainly for the red cavalier. he does not want anyone to know anything about his car. but its ok there are a couple and atleast there are no engine shots. but pics arent a bad thing. the meet im trying to plan with him and my car club should be big. we are looking at Fox Valley Mall again in the back of Steak n Shake. That lot can fit about 500 cars. My car club has about 648 members. im looking to get about 300-400 cars for this meet. so keep postin ur names if interested!

I'm sorry, I have to say it. If people didn't want pictures of their car taken, then don't bring the car to a car meet. That's just ignorant. They have no right to be upset about people posting pictures on the internet of their car. What's the problem? If someone has an issue with this, PM me.

yes its a cavalier. but the facts are that this cavalier runs a mid 12 sec 1/4. so itss not JUST a cavalier. he asked the people who were taking pics to please not post them. and they all agreed. thats why he was kinda mad.

found a great place to take a crusie to off of 167th and cicero and the route includes a nice long straight with few lights, if you catch my drift. so now all we need it a place to meet. an orland park cop told me "Lumes" is a real nice place and the lot looks to have ample parking.

say 2pm cause its better earlier so you still have your nights.
