Do any of you have PSS9s installed on the car? I want to feel how the ride is.

Hey guys!
I really liked Joe's idea about track day, we need to explore it more. I also was thinking about making our next meet more organized in terms of finding sponsors and combining it with some sort of track activities. It can be anything from friendly runs at dragstrip to renting an old airfield or track. It's just an idea at this point but I'd like to hear your opinions on that. Would be nice to not just see our cars all together but also be able to run them against each other under safe conditions

If you want to go racing, we can go to Byron:

The schedule shows a test & tune day on Saturday - perfect for a pre-meet !

I agree. If it turns out to be a poor weather weekend, we should reschedule. It sure is beautiful out today though.

I'd love to come down but it's troublesome schedule-wise right now. I'll have to hope for another one soon. Have fun!

By the way, if any of you get the chance, please drive back-to-back and compare C32 with springs only (Renntech, etc) to C32 with PSS9. Thanks!

That's what I want as well. I'm strongly considering the PSS9s but am concerned about the ride quality.

NEW Location

Guys, I want to suggest NEW location. It's actually not new, it's the same one from the last year meet - just 2-3 miles away from Streets of Woodfield.
I did some research about Streets of Woodfield and even contacted property management company that oversees it. They require certificate of liability insurance for any sort of gathering. Besides, it seems that we wont be able to open our hoods while on the parkng lot. Taking in consideration the number of people attending and the fact that quite a few may travel out of state it might be safer to avoid these problems - real/potential - alltogether and switch location.

New location is only about 3 miles away and we'll have the whole parking lot to ourselves. There's a lounge on this plaza with light food and refreshments.

Here's address for a new spot: Fumare Lounge, 305 West Golf rd Schaumburg Illinois:http://maps.citysearch.com/map/view/41844690

It's on the Binny's plaza.
Anyone who is out of town or needs help finding place please PM me for my cell#.

Same date - 4/15/2007, same time - 3pm, NEW location

Hope to see you all there!

It's not huge but all the businesses on that mini-plaza are closed on Sunday so we'll have all the spots for ourselves. Plus no unforseen problems with management.

Yeah, but dosen't your food look bigger on a smaller plate?

The place is cool, and the management is welcoming. I would opine that this is a much better location than the Streets of Woodfield.
