the only one i've seen thus far is a black t/c but i have no clue who drives it. i saw a g5 gt this morning drive by but thats the first and last i've seen of it, so who knows. **** mine isn't even on base until this saturday. i'll post some pics up somewhere on the site i suppose since i've done a few things to it recently. definitely wouldn't drive from va to IL... i've done the va-ia drive more times than i can count and i hate it every single time (i usually do it straight through). so as of right now, its just me unless someone else on here speaks up. would love to meet up so i know where the flip i'm going. if you want we can meet in waukegan since the roads in north chicago/great lakes are bad enough to make puppies cry lol

 

[QUOTE=rallyracer;3719464]It isn't 06CobaltSS. It is 06black and Area47 that you would want to talk with.

 

Ok cool, a meet up would be great. We can finalize any plans as the meet gets closer.

Lol it's ok. I wasn't trying to bust your ***** or anything. I was just trying to explain that buying/selling/trading is just one of many aspects of these big meets. Once the cars are lined up at the meet, people usually always have rims or misc. parts they are trying to sell sitting near their cars.

 

Nice, might have to bring my spare set of SS/SC rims and try to pawn em off.

 

ok if anybody who cant get a room at the hotel need a place to stay let me know i could let one or two people stay i got a line of cars going anyways to the meet if any of you guys want to save money

 

just installed my long tube headers and catless X pipe tonight youll hear me comming, this thing rumbles

 

it wouldn't be Biohazard if it wasn't loud...lol. I remember listening to the Black cobalt with straights I think...

 

damn i can't wait to go to this... on a side note, i met someone named Mikey last night at taco bell who had a white cobalt w/muffler & wheels... i know you said you were on here but i forgot to get your username. anyone know who the hell i'm talking about? lol

 

was it a white LS/LT, rims, no spoiler, dark tint, and a muffler? did he wear glasses? dark haired kid?

 

lol yup that was him.

 

yup. if that's who i'm thinking of...i know him. he comes out every once in a while when some local car clubs gather by the walmart in waukegan.

 

at the Indiana meet? this is so much louder

 

Does anyone have Any Car Flags (The one you put in your drive and/or passenger window) We could use it for a lead car who knows where there going.


I have been talking to a few people who travel to Chicago from Grayslake almost everyday. They said that the best way to get to Chicago with out hitting any tolls is to take Sheridan and N Lake Shore drive.


CLICKY

 

Well, thanks to work, I will not be attending any more. They decided to say that we can't schedule days off.

 

Ugh...my vote is definitely not to take Sheridan at all...it would be like cruising down a residential street for 25 miles. the speed limit barely ever dips over 35. It would just be a horribly long and slow route to take. I dont mind paying tolls, but we should at least take a route that's a highway. We should take 41/94 down there and back. That way, we can avoid the 294 toll charges, but still be on a highway on which we can actually cruise. There are pretty much only 3 ways to get to chicago from grayslake. 41, 294, or sheridan road. Sheridan is slow, 41 isn't as new or wide as 294, but 294 charges tolls. If people are that turned off by the $8 in tolls it would cost or whatever....i vote 41. If everybody does take Sheridan...I'll take a different route and just meet you guys there.

 

294 sucks with construction right now. Its down to 2 lanes

 

Thanks.

I will make a quick route to wacker in all quick postible routes..

41 to 94 - HERE


Sheridan - HERE


294 - HERE


Any suggestions on the routes??? please give

 

Thanks for taking the time to post that up. This definitely proves my point in regards to the Sheridan route. 1.5 hours for a trip that should take 30-40 minutes, traffic willing. Another thing to keep in mind, by taking Sheridan, we would have to pass through every "downtown" aread in most of the cities along the route...meaning 30-35mph speed limits, and quite a few stop lights. This makes cruising in a big group difficult, and increases the instances of people in the back losing the leaders of the pack.

 

guess I better not follow you this meet then, lol...

I bet it sounds better with 4 extra cylinders though.

 

get me down as a maybe

 

I am most defiantly going...

 

X2... I vote for the 41-94 route as well

 

^^ Added (no maybe's) once your name is on the list you have to come.

^^ Added

 

You dont have to agree with me just because i'm the VP of the car club that you're a member of

In all seriousness though, anybody that knows this area should agree that 41/94 would be the best route for a large scale cruise to the city since 294 costs money and is in shambles.

 

A good VP will remember to give this member the t-shirt he promised
