How many of you guys in the Chicago area are planning on attending this meet/event? Looks like a good one. Several of my friends and I will be heading out of Naperville around 7:30 am. We are going to meet up at the Caribou Coffee at the NE corner of Rt 59 and 95th Street (by the Jewel/Osco) in Naperville between 7:00-7:30. It's only a short 16 mile ride to the event, but a caravan will be fun. I've got a R8, a 996tt, a Continental GT, M5, a few M3's, a modded R32 and some other cars already joining us for the caravan, the more the merrier. The event is open to any and all european cars and bikes.

Jim,

I will likely stop by, however joining your caravan wouldn't be very practical as I am coming from the north shore. Would be good to get some Benz representation.

Ya, Naperville would be twice the trip for you. I hope to see you there and finally meet you.

I'll meet up in naperville with a couple cars...

+1... count me in for caravan...

That sounds liek alot of fun, doesn't come around here though

alaksander, it would be cool if you came out to Naperville, but the event is right in your backyard, Naperville would be WAY out of your way. You're in Hinsdale, right? This event is in Willowbrook which is only a few blocks from Hinsdale but feel free to join us, either way looking forward to seeing you again...If you do meet up with us behave LOL, you are a bad influance on me, remember our last caravan trip? I sense trouble

Let me refresh your memory

Aleksander, how are you going to go to a cars and coffee without a car? tisk tisk....seriously, I want dibs on the remnants of the engine.

Woah.... I know that we have never broken the law for any reason we will keep it 55mph the whole way, that is 55 over the whole way... but all in the same

You can pick up the scattered pieces from I-55 heading north past rt83!

sshhhhh, I thought that was not supposed to be public knowledge, he did not what anyone knowing he blew it up. We all know what happens when a motor pops...it's gets built back bigger and stronger than ever! I have a feeling Alaksander is gonna break out an SLR powered E very soon

I think now would be a good time to step up the game and go for a V12 powered E! I need a good project.

Nick

You want to sponsor the project

Hey guys, I got my car back from the MB dealer (pulley and flange replacement) and will try to make this event. I'm coming from Milwaukee....how many more would be coming from the North Shore area? If anyone else is, do you guys want to meet somewhere and head over to the event? I'll talk my uncle into driving his SL55 so we'll have more Benz representation!!!

I read on the Eurosunday website that they have corral parking for anyone who shows up by 9:00am, I assume by "corral parking" they mean sectioned off parking for each make of car, a section for MB's, a section for Bimmers, a section for Porsches, etc. If we all get there early enough we can just look for each other in the MB section.

mdre55amg,

I will be coming from the north shore too. Will you be taking 294? We could meet at the O'Hare oasis?

...not bad!

I'm not sure if the changed the date or I am just a screw up but one of my buddies was on the Eurosunday website yesterday and said the Chicago date is 5/17. I'm not sure where I got the 3rd from So it looks like this is 2 weeks away. I will still be attending and all my buddies are planning on meeting at the same place.

WOW! Thanks Jim!

Well, in that case I might have a new surprise for the meet

EDIT:

Jim, It is on the 3rd!! The website says 5/3/2009.....

Cancel my surprise, it won't be here yet!

Jim, the site u linked says it is on May 3, not May 17. i think ur buddies may be wrong

Sounds like a nice event. Looking forward to meeting other local AMG owners!

You are right I just checked the eurosunday.net site and it shows this Sunday the 3rd, see you guys on Sunday.

A handful of us are still meeting up in Naperville around 7:30 to make the short trek together.

Sorry, I haven't been on the forum in a while. I would be taking 294. We could meet up at the O'Hare oasis. Let's coordinate a time.

Last Call...are any of you guys planning on meeting up with me in Naperville? Let me know, I don't want to leave anyone behind. Once again there are a handful of us meeting at the northeast corner of IL RT 59 and 95th St in the parking lot in front of the Caribou Coffee, there is a Jewel/Osco in the same shopping center, we are going get there around 7:30-7:45 and pull out by 8:00am the actual Eurosunday event is only about a 30 min drive from this point.

Jrcart, I will meet you at 95th and 59
