Check up on top of the Midwestern Section Sticky section. Doesn't seem like a lot of people are going from LS1Tech.

I was thinking we can all meet up at the Target (there's a Wendys there too) on Lincoln Hwy. I believe the address is
2480 east Lincoln Hwy
New Lenox Il
around 9:30-10:30 am get everyone together and cruise in at 11:00.

What do you guys think?
"Talk to me Goose"!

I'll be there with about 5+ cars!
