Where are you anyways?

2000 Celica GTS 'slowest gts evar'1998 Mazda 626 FS-DE/CD4-E
about 5 or 7 miles from downtown Chicago (just north of it actually) kind of between Lakeview and Uptown (according to the google map it is considered 'Buena Park' pretty much right off lake shore dr)

Ah. Not even remotely on my way. If you don't have a ride for the spring meet let me know and I'll bring the Mazda instead, you can hop the L to the loop and get on the Metra Electric to Homewood and I can grab you from there (its near where I get on I-80). I can drop you off back in the city no problem though since it'll be later with less traffic by then. Erin lives around De Paul area so it's a good excuse to crash at her place and hang there for a night.

for anyone new, I'm meeting up with someone at the Luv's truck stop off I-80 outside Utica if you want to follow down. I'm planning to be there around 11-12 depending on Rob. If you want to meet there PM me for my number so we can coordinate.

Hey were still doing the bumper thing on Saturday right?

Never Forget. - 2013 Mustang. I miss you every day.
We're up for it if you are.

Counting down the hours now! Just checked the weather for Saturday. I'm seeing a high of 62 with a 30% of showers in the evening. Looks like we're going to have a good day.

Wait, what bumper thing?

I'm so lost.....

~bloodMoney
Brigette and I are buying Zack's GT4 bumper. It's black, it's close, and it's the look she wants. It's perfect in every way.

I see smile.gif

I'll help where I can...

~bloodMoney
Some may care, but since I might have the farthest drive; I'm leaving tomorrow morning staying at a Holiday inn Friday night that is close by. That way I can be at the park on time at least but I may have to leave early, since I'm driving all the way back on Saturday night. If any one wants to leave early just let me know and we could figure something out. Sorry I should've planned a little better. I'm excited!!

We should also see who gets the max MPG. Just post a picture of your gas receipts with the miles written on there. All in the name of fun.
