View Full Version : Il November Meet
wikkymaster 10-31-2005, 09:50 PM alright erik help me out on pickin a place to meet for november, def a restaurant or something so we dont stand outside long in case its cold out.... i just thought id give somebody else a chance to pick since i dont know many good meet spots :cssNET:
NightmareSS 11-01-2005, 10:55 AM How about the Schaumburg Area ? For Restaurants we have so many choices out there. Then we got Game Works etc. we can go to. -Erik- :cssNET:
wikkymaster 11-01-2005, 06:49 PM alright the only restaurant i know of is hooters and people get in trouble there now so any other places? and any dates?
Halfcent 11-01-2005, 09:33 PM It doesn't have to be Hooters. The lot in front of Game Works is used by every retail operation in the Streets of Woodfield mall, including the movie theater. One word of caution however, we won't be the only vehicle club there. Its a popular lot for all the local rich kids to roll through in their daddy bought Lexus, and the japanese biker crowd is always there. I don't see either being a problem actually. In fact it should make for a lot of interested parties coming by and looking at our cars.
wikkymaster 11-01-2005, 10:58 PM yea what i meant was someone pick a place other than hooters, cuz i dont know any others around there, but if you guys can think of something great! i was thinking like the 12th or 13th, the weekend of the 18th is bad for me, then i think the next is thanksgiving right?
CleanNFun 11-02-2005, 03:24 PM omg...lol the 12-13 once again i think im going home :(...but ill be getting a new in-dash pioneer dvd player :D with 6.5in screen :D Woot :one:
billdeebs 11-06-2005, 12:03 AM yea what i meant was someone pick a place other than hooters, cuz i dont know any others around there, but if you guys can think of something great! i was thinking like the 12th or 13th, the weekend of the 18th is bad for me, then i think the next is thanksgiving right?
If anybody is interested we do still have a dyno day scheduled in Joliet on Saturday the 12th. Meet at the parking lot of the Motel 6, just north of the intersection of Larkin and I-80 at 8:30 a.m. We'll grab some breakfast, then hit the dyno at 9:00. So far we've got two IRL's, a 72 MG, some Ford Foci, a Taurus SHO, some kind of midget racer, a Saturn SL1, and an SRT4. I'll even make this offer, the first Cobalt that registers will get their baseline dyno passes for free. Yep. Zero cost instead of the usual $85.00. It's a Dynojet, with the ability to monitor wideband O2 (through a bung welded onto your exhaust) and boost pressure. Please email me directly at billdeebs at aol.com to register. I will also post this on the Cobalt SS Forums as well and will post who the winner is. Specating and bench racing are, of course, free.. See ya next Saturday.
wikkymaster 11-06-2005, 03:23 AM ill be at work, but where exactly is the place you are going to in joliet i live in lockport so im only a few minutes away... i was thinkin about maybe comin up later just to see but who knows
Psycho 11-06-2005, 04:21 AM Man I might rool out ..depends how far from chicago.I live in n/w Indinia and work in the loop/Down town chicago.
billdeebs 11-06-2005, 01:15 PM Man I might rool out ..depends how far from chicago.I live in n/w Indinia and work in the loop/Down town chicago.
This is a brand new building and street, so it doesn't show up on mapquest. If you are at the intersection of I-80 and Larkin, proceed South to Moen Ave. Turn right (West) and the first building you see on your left past the gas station on the corner is the dyno shop. The street is Hull Street and they are at the South end of the building. We should be there from 9:00 a.m until 3-4 p.m. If you get lost or have any questions, please call me directly at 630 745 1033. Thanks! John

During the week would be better for me. Anytime M-F, the 14th through the 18th. If I had to pick a day right now I'd say Wednesday the 16th. Parking lot of Streets of Woodfield, maybe toward the far side of the lot across from the restaurant circle in the middle of the strip.
wikkymaster 11-07-2005, 01:40 AM lol i have no idea where the far side of the lot across from the restaurant circle in the middle of the strip is haha
Halfcent 11-08-2005, 12:12 AM Yeah, yeah, quit yelling at me. It's easier to when you are there to see it. Streets of woodfield is basically a glorified strip mall. Right in the middle there is a circle driveway the surrounds a kind of food court full of small franchise restaurants like Chipotle and Cold Stone. Its the center of the strip, and the parking lot right along it. I'll try to get a mapquest pic up here for ya.
try this (http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?searchtype=address&country=US&addtohistory=&searchtab=home&address=601+N.+Martingale+Road&city=&state=&zipcode=60173)
wikkymaster 11-08-2005, 12:34 AM that will work
jeff1751 11-09-2005, 07:34 PM Streets of Woodfield works for me. It's pretty easy to find. Easy to get to. So has a date and time been finalized?
wikkymaster 11-11-2005, 11:33 AM hmmm
bdwarr6 11-11-2005, 12:29 PM for a free dyno ill drive upto chicago i know a bunch of people up there, keep us informed
CobaltCowboy 11-11-2005, 12:36 PM so what's the day for this meet? and does it matter that my car is stock?
wikkymaster 11-11-2005, 12:56 PM no of course not, i dont have any good days besides tomorrow at like 5 lol, november is pretty booked up for me, possibly next friday too depending on my work schedule which i will know today
billdeebs 11-11-2005, 06:04 PM for a free dyno ill drive upto chicago i know a bunch of people up there, keep us informed
The free slot is still open for the first Cobalt for our dyno day tomorrow..
Halfcent 11-11-2005, 11:35 PM I still say Wednesday the 16, but I know that it will be dark to meet at like 7pm. Otherwise I say hold onto this spot and simply schedule it for the weekend after Thanksgiving. That way there no rush.
wikkymaster 11-14-2005, 10:45 PM ok here is the official date unless people cant make it, SATURDAY THE 3RD @ 2pm we'll say, now just find a place, maybe somewhere in schaumburg this time, it will probably be cold so preferably a restaurant
philco_3 11-14-2005, 11:27 PM I'm thinking road trip for me :)
NightmareSS 11-15-2005, 11:54 AM Hey Everyone ! Sorry I've been away so long. Got back to workin again. If this is going down on the 3rd of December it's a no go for me since I'll be in Florida. I'n any case have a great time everyone. Wish I could be there. -Erik-

Halfcent 11-23-2005, 01:37 AM Hey everybody. Sorry to take so long to get back with a location. It will be at the Streets of Woodfield. Here is the map:
Streets of Woodfield (http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?searchtype=address&country=US&addtohistory=&searchtab=home&address=601+N.+Martingale+Road&city=&state=&zipcode=60173)
There is a movie theatre, a Gameworks, and Dicks Sports Goods there for reference. We can eat at Gameworks.
The parking lot has an indoor garage and an regular outdoor lot. We can meet initially in the outdoor lot. Park toward the rear of the lot across from Gameworks.
I will be there, but alas, my car will not. Damn engine shop :cussing:

You guys inviting the J-body group too? Or are you too special for the weekend? j/k If your looking for more people though...Although last minute.
Psycho 12-03-2005, 10:40 AM I wont be able to come out we had a guy quit at work and I gotta cover the shift,It (SUCKS) :cussing:
wikkymaster 12-03-2005, 10:36 PM ive never been to a meet where we didnt line up the cars and take pictures!!! ugh!!
SS SCHGD 12-04-2005, 01:41 AM Might have been a nice couple pictures with the snow falling on some nice clean cobalts....I understand with people haveing to try and make it home in the snow though....Good to meet you guys. Looking forward to the next one, maybe we can do more than Eat though....
It was fun.
wikkymaster 12-04-2005, 02:40 AM yea that was a bad place to meet, nowhere to park by eachother and stuff, kinda dissapointed, plus halfcent wasnt even there and he picked the damn place!! wtfrick
philco_3 12-04-2005, 07:24 PM Yah maybe next time when its not Christmas time we'll get better parking spots. I'm kinda glad that we didnt take photos, cause my car was dirty as sin from all the salt I picked up on the way up. When I got back home I had to wash that crap off.
That tollway on 355 has to be the most screwed up system I have ever seen. Went through the first time and didnt pay...oops. When I came back through I talked to a toll guy about paying for the ones I missed. I'm sending out the $2.00 check (that is the smallest check I have ever written in my life) on Monday, to avoid any fines or tickets for not paying them.
I had fun, hopefully we can do it again in the spring.
wikkymaster 12-04-2005, 11:51 PM def a differnet place next time i dont like that place lol
Halfcent 12-05-2005, 12:52 AM Hi guys, sorry I missed you.
I'm a pilot and I got called out on a trip. That's my life. I guess that spot wasn't any good? It's really nice in the warmer times of year. And hey, Nightmare suggested GameWorks, gimme a break! :)
I'll work with you guys some more for the next meet and pick a nice spot. Perhaps we can come up with somewhere that has a little indoor parking.
Alrighty, I gotta go to bed. I'll talk to ya all later.
