David - Arlington Heights, Il. . .possibly can host it at my apartment, depending on the # of people coming.

I`ll drive anywhere within 2 hours of Chicago. . .

I`m down for this meet.

I like this idea of having it at blue-sun`s place if he doesn`t mind.

How far is Darien to Arlignton Heights?

I`m also in. I`ll try to make arrangements to get down to Chicago (if need be). I`d like to point out that the Chicago Auto Show 2005 is from February 11-20, which I will be attending. I don`t know if that date would be more convenient for other members as well (as they could go auto show and autopia meet in the same trip).

Feb might be a little cold for detailing. I was thinking more along the lines of April

**White95Max** · 12-30-2004, 01:30 PM

I was thinking April too. I have a summer job that starts on May 1st and requires me to work weekends, although I could get a weekend--or at least one day--during May or June if necessary.

Carl you can ride with me...that`s no problem. You`re only 10 miles out of the way.

pigeonbus: That would not be a bad idea especially since I like to visit that. Maybe we could plan a meet and greet to put the faces with the names at the Auto Show.

We could still continue to plan for the spring meet.

Sounds like a plan to me.

**Bluesbrekr** · 12-31-2004, 10:56 AM

I`d be game for the detail meet. Not sure about the auto show. Might be possible.

That`d be great! Thanks

I live in Palatine, IL, which is next-door to blue-sun. I`m game for anything...

**White95Max** · 01-02-2005, 09:59 PM

GTP - Have you been to Chicago Indoor Racing there in Palatine?

Actually, it`s in Buffalo Grove, which is also next to Palatine and Arlington Heights. I have not been there, but I`ve heard it`s a lot of fun. A little costly, but fun.
