Chicago Z meet today!!

Hello everybody,

Sorry for the belatedness, but for all of you that live in the Chicagoland area, there is a Z meet today down by Orland Park at around 3:00, at the south parking lot of the Moraine Valley Community College. If you're interested, "meet" us up there with your Z, or whatever car you're driving. We'd love to see you there!

I would've posted earlier, but many of us thought it was gonna rain today. Since it does NOT look like it's gonna rain (no thanks to the weatherman), looks like it's still taking place. Z ya all there, and you too Riz??

You were there Rizz??! Did you drive up to Montrose Beach with us too?? Hey, I think I remember you said your Z was red. Is it the one on the left in this first picture?



And here's my Z at the meet with my buddy's Z33 parked next to mine. Was this the same one you saw Rizz?? Maybe you're even in this photo and I didn't even realize it! See if you can find yourself...



Hahaaha, well maybe I'll get to meet you at the next gathering!

yep, that's my Z. The one parked next to the orange one and the green one. The green one is Griff's.

In your other pic, I'm standing right in front of my car talking to Randy, Phil, Griff, and I think that's Howard.

No, Griff and I didn't go down to the beach with everyone. We had already traveled over an hour to get there. We didn't feel it was worth it to travel another hour to get to a beach then travel another hour to get home later. We didn't know that we would be traveling elsewhere after the initial arrival. If that was the case why didn't we just meet at the beach itself, that woulda saved us some time, money, and most importantly gas. I already had to dip into my piggy bank to get gas money to go down there. LOL I'm sooo broke! LOL

I totally agree! I really don't understand why they didn't just meet up at the beach, especially when Randy from Ultimate Z knew that there were Z owners who were coming down from the northside and downtown area!! It definitely would've been a much shorter travel for me and my buddy as well. That travel up to the beach from Orland Park lost a lot of Z's from the group, and made it much less meaningful than it could've been. To be quite honest, my friend and I got pretty bored...

It wasn't that nice up close Nismo. You didn't miss anything with that Z. Others though woulda been worth the trip. The orange Z's paint job wasn't all that great, plus the guy had a steel hood! Man, that thing weighed a ton!!

The next meet should be better though. There's gonna be food and beverages to tide ppl over. There's also gonna be some dyno-pulling if anyone's interested. So naturally I'm assuming the meet's at a shop. I'll be up to going as long as it doesn't turn into a "let's meet here, then go ride far away" thing like last time.

HUGE Chicago Z Meet!

Chicago350z.com presents it's first official meet of the year!
ALL Z's & G35's invited

*Food and Drinks will be provided!
*Dyno available for all those interested (special pricing)!
