I know it gets a little crowded sometimes, Well if you hang with us this Friday I'll be sure to save a couple extra spots. I'm there around 4:30-500pm so i'm usually one of the first guys there. I have no problem putting up a couple cones for you guys. Actually I'll do just that, let me know if you guys are interested.

We park in the very last row across from the Corvette Guys, on the west side of the lot (Arby's side).

the show officially ends at 9pm, however, there's always a handful of us who stick around to about 10. I see a few other car groups do the same thing.

Well let me tell ya, that video was really edited to make it look just as you described lol. Most of those cop scenes were actually shot in one day, and the very ending was completely staged. The local police dept played along with us, allowing us to film around the squad cars getting the footage we were after.

Yes a couple of members have had there run ins with the law, but haven't we all (in a matter of speaking)? The video makes it look extreme, however one of those clips was just a normal (if you can say normal) routine stop for speeding, a member just happened to get it on tape. And like i before the other clips were staged, it was all in fun.

This is a professional club man, i would never jeopardize the club for just a few cool shots.

Well why don't you join us so you can be part of the wolfpack once again.

I mapquested Orland Park to the Carshow address. They say your a 45 minute drive from the show, straight up I-90 basically.

Also I see downers grove is a little more in your neck of the woods, would you/or anyone happen to know if there carshow is still going on? I haven't heard too much about the downers grove show lately, suppose to be a pretty big show as well.

Cool! We'll be on the west side of the lot (Arby's and Gamestop side). I'll try to save as many spaces and i can. This is the last show, but hopefully next year i can work out a deal with the owners of this carshow. I know a couple clubs have a designated spot just for them. I'm sure I can work something out for our club as well.

I'll hold a few spots long as i can guys, bringing the cones tomorrow

Great! Well I'm not prejudice to just northside gtg's. Next year I want to check out the downers grove show for sure, and as for other south side show, if there are any others going on at this time still please let me know. I'm up for anything, it's just hard since the season is coming to an end. But Chicagoland Club means All of Chicagoland, not just the north side lol. Hope to see you around.
