2006 Spring Meet -April 1st - Busse Woods-Schaumburg, IL

[Ajaxus]

1. Start out going EAST on E HIGGINS RD / IL-72 E toward N MARTINGALE RD. 2.5 miles Map

2. Make a U-TURN onto HIGGINS RD / IL-72 W.

3. End at Busse Woods, IL US


That work for ya? (Just mapquest Busse Woods, IL...I didn't even know this till now )

Basically, as I temp forgot, the park is located just off of Higgins Rd...and the hotel is located on higgins as well. So I dont think there will be any problems.

[SilverEcstasy]

Yeah it seems like its only 20 minutes East of the hotel. Can't be that hard to find. But now its up to the IL crew to find out where exactly in the park we're meeting. Because i'm sure it'll be one specific spot in the huge park.

[Ajaxus]

uhh, i think its the parking lot just off of higgins, iirc there's only one lot on that edge of the park. i know we have that somewhere.

[GTgoddess]

I'm nervous for this Saturday!?!? I don't know why. But i'm totally stoked. i can't believe its FINALLY here

[SilverEcstasy]

I know i'm a little anxious to go! But like I said, lets start organizing this a little better.

[UNCTYPE-S]

My question is, if you're meeting at 1pm, what is going to be planned throughout the whole day? Besides checking/talking about cars and throwin some footballs around, and eating, whatelse do you guys have planned?

I am willing to bet about 99% of the people going wouldnt mind setting up some type of cruise. Why dont you guys do that? Where would you go?

Also, at night, are you guys going to a 18+ club? Staying at the hotel? Going to streets of woodfield? I'm just trying to make the people from out of state feel like they're coming here with things to do as oppose to sitting in a parking lot for 8 hrs and calling it a night.

[Metallman56]

here is my question, might be a dumb one and i think i know the answer, but is there a power outlet in this parking lot? if so i will bring my bat charger and just leave my car on the whole time. remember i have never been there so please try not to criticize me too bad.

Jim, if you read the original post, u'd find the answer to all those questions...

way to be!

actually all that is TBD when we get there, cuz i don't know what the hell is around, or where is a good place to cruise or eat. And even if people told me right now "oh yea, this is a good place, do this etc" I would have no idea what they are talking about.
Plus being there at 1 allows for more plans to go into effect as we are there in the park.

[UNCTYPE-S]

Alex, I did read the first page. All of those things were basically my ideas from the start. The thing is, those are tentative ideas. Nothing is set in stone. I think something should be set in stone. I can see you guys all meeting up and then asking eachother, "ok so what do we want to do?" I think a main plan of events should be posted here so you all know exactly what you're going to be doing.

Maybe I am looking into it too much, but I am a very organized person and just think that maybe it should be organized a little better with a proper agenda. I dont know, dont listen to me.

[lone_wolf025]

Too bad I won't be able to make it...stupid work. Schaumburg has a number of good places to go. Oh well there's always next time

[ViperGTSR]

No I hear ya Jim, mike and I would like to see it very organized as well. However not being from the area I can't say ****. People who live around here need to speak up....

I DEFINITELY plan on cruising somewhere, and eating somewhere later. But usually car meets are just all about hanging out forever, shootin the ****.

w3rd.

So are you goin jim or not!?

[xxbackhillxx]

if you've picked up on alex's and hadji's posts, I'm not going to make it. Money has become sort of a priority for me over this past weekend.

I'm not in desperate need for it, but I would like to start saving more of it instead of doing/buying unnecessary things.

That sucks, I wanted to see you run your car... fock

As far as events for Saturday night, I say we hit up Street of Woodfield and hit on some 15 year olds (I know Kyle will like that) then go back to the hotels to party or something? I dont care what we do, just realize I have 4 people in my group annnnd Im getting up early for the track.

[Gizm0815]

id be up for a cruise just as long as i can find my way back home cuz i gotta get home and then drive back to the track on sunday

hmm, if not might be possible to use my power inverter? iirc (its not with me at school) its a 600w peak. just trade off running cars, use half the gas, and keep one car powered off of the other at all times.




annnd as far as last details, ive done as much as i can from out of state. like alex said, its the locals that should do, if at all, the final "set in stone" details as they know the places and attractions in the area. a cruise would def. be fun, as well as making fun of half painted "pimped" cars if there are any, heh. (always a favorite passtime)

[Metallman56]

u could do that with jumper cables.

[Ajaxus]

true, but ill still have that inverter with me either way.
