Missed the C&C yesterday. Family get together in Brookfield.

Did make it to Byron late afternoon for a few runs. Saw a few Mustangs, no other Boss's.

Ran 12.50s

 

[cosm3os]

There's still another C&C later this month.

Nice to meet you, Tim!

Hey Kyle great pic. and also enjoyed meeting you and your son! One interesting note, even amongst all the Ferrari's & euro classics our cars were still getting their share of looks. After you left I wandered back to my car and popped open the hood. I then walked across the street and sat down to observe. It was like bees to honey and within a few minutes there was a constant flow of people with their heads under the hood pointing and discussing the wonder of an american muscle small bock V8! At that point I walked back over and stood there for the next 1/2 hr. answering questions. Very cool!!

The Ferrari's (save for the classics) were the least interesting things there. The hotrod SL, Messerschmidt, SAAB Sonnet, M1, Morgan 3 wheeler, Invicta, and McLaren etc were all way more interesting to see.

I couldn't agree more and took photos of just about every car you mentioned. The hot rod SL was one of my favorites!

Post em up!

Last event is this Sunday. Who's in?

 

[Dean#4AI]

It's going to be dependent on the weather. My wife wants to go also but I know what is going to happen when it is in the high 40's and windy. She is not going to want to walk around outside and look at cars. Never been to Winnetka, so I don't know if there is anything else she could do inside to keep warm.

What time do you usually get there, it starts at 9:00am, right?

 

[cosm3os]

Officially starts at 9, but cars are rolling in by 8. There's a nice little breakfast cafe right there, otherwise all the other shops are closed, I think.

Ok, I'm going to have to look at another plan. I'll come up with something.

 

[cosm3os]

Hmmm. How about "ditch the wife"?

That's the current plan! ;D
I really wanted to stay up there Saturday night and then go to the show in the morning. Since she's not going, I'll be leaving early in the morning and drive up there. It will be about 3 hours but there shouldn't be much traffic that early on a Sunday morning.

Maybe some day if I come to visit family one of the coffee meet-ups will coincide. I have family about 30 miles south of the city.

Where are you, Dean? Fort Wayne?

 

[Dean#4AI]

Where are you, Dean? Fort Wayne?

In Warsaw, which is about 40 miles west of there.

 

[mexicanstrat]

Hey Dean you over in Warsaw, I live over in Valparaiso. If you do come up something let me know. The name is Joe.

Hi Joe,
Usually when I head to Chicago, I turn on 49 at Valpo. It's about an hour drive so I would be rolling through about 7am eastern. You're on Chicago time, correct?
I have no idea when I'll be coming back through though.
Sometime we'll have to get together.
