Going off of Kyle's thread about having a national car meet for the newtiburon family.. i have decided to take over and make this happen. (i did ask him to make sure it was ok if i took over)
I am changing the location to Chicago, IL. You still get nice hotels, beaches, night life/club scene, plenty of bars, casinos, sports, and good food. lol
I think its a better location then Vegas because for the Underage youngsters that are going, there are still things for them to do.. lol
I have picked a date. As of today it will be July 24-26. Please let me know if its cool for everyone.. i can push it back a week, but i would really like to stay in that time frame.
So if everyone is still down.. i will make this happen for sure!!
From what I've seen about attendance at meets, people will contemplate going if it's generally 8hrs or under drive. Some people may do a couple hours more and some a couple hours less. Sure there are always exceptions to the norm, but generally we don't see too much of that.
I think a more likely title should be "midwest" meet, and for the vegas one, that's more like "west coast". The east coast folks just had an incredible turnout in PA, but asking them to drive over 20hrs to make it to chicago would be asking a bit much I think.
I will surely try to make it since I like to go out to chicago at least once or twice a year, and this can be my main trip out there.

nick.. quit being a negative nancy.. its going to happen whether you like it or not.. lol
and some hotels downtown arent that pricey.. just have to find the right one. and if you share a room with someone or a couple people.. you can get it for not to expensive..
if this is for real, im willing to help out. hotels are very cheap when booked in advance too. there are 2 major airports here. both which have direct transportation to the city. chicago is the center point for the US.

Yeah, I recommend to tap Mike and Kevin to help put one together for sure. They did a great job on the Busse Woods meet last year and we had a decent turnout for it being the chicago folks.
note, im probably going to spread this to more then tiburons too. all i need is a date and enough intrest. and seeing that i have some nice connections in the city now with work, im sure i can help. ill see if kevin wants to help out
Different rooms though, sir. I really don't like rooming with people, having to coordinate when to go to bed and dealing with other people's ****t. :3_pimatyo
yea i used to live and work in chicago also.. so i know a few people who i can speak with about discounts and such.. and if you want to spread to more then just tiburons then so be it.. the more the merrier.. i think if people actually see a growing interest and actually see people trying to mkae it happen.. more and more people will want to come!!
Josh, no. sorry. but thats not a good idea. its a constant battle, between them, dsm, VW, and what ever. so i dont reccomend that at all. unless you plan on doing a national import meet.
It would be cool...but I think I'll be in my Camaro by then.
LOL, and Chicago is nowhere near the center of the country...that would be more like Colorado or somewhere in Nebraska!
