Wink Car shows. when and where.

Not sure if anyone has started a thread like this or not so sorry if there has been. I thought it would be a neat idea if we post what night and where they might know there are car shows during the summer so that some of us that are not in the know can have a reference. That way people like me who are trying to get back into the scene can meet some of you guys. Thanks.

We're trying to develop a small weekly cruise on Saturdays. We start at Photo's on Wolf and Kensington in Mt. Prospect, hang out there for a bit, then head to either the Mt. Prospect train station, or to Wood Fire on Irving and 53. We've accomplished this exactly once so far this year with the weird weather, etc., but we're ALWAYS at Photo's starting around 6:30.

There's also the Meijer Friday night show, at the corner of Golf and Algonquin in I believe Rolling Meadows. I still haven't been to this one, but it looks to be pretty big.

Once is better than I've managed to do. Next time hopefully I won't lose the group.

I had an idea...tin cans with a very long, thin bungee cord...

Oh, I worked on my cowl today. Better, but not really Ryan-quality.

I'm not able to live up to my own standards most of the time either, so don't feel too bad.

Now where's that damn tin can...... been looking for it all day! I can't make phone calls without it.

The Gurnee McD's show is going down Friday night, plus I'm sure Meijer will be as well. But I'm working a loooong day tomorrow, so I doubt I'll be able to make it out. If anything, I might swing through the Gurnee show on my way home from work since it's just down the street, but I'll be in my DD.

I will make a post within a weeks time with more information and with the flyers.
