Definitely still on!

Won't be able to bring the tC cause it needs a tune but I'll still make it to the meet.

We'll probably start meeting up in the Spring once the weather starts to break for the better (April). He had a few successful meets towards the end of the season so hopefully we can carry that into next year.

I live close to downtown and speaking from experience its hard to meet up downtown because the police pretty much break things up 5-10 minutes after you get there. This year we held meets at 4 corners in Downers Grove (75th st & Lemont) and a police officer just let us know that they wouldn't mess with us as long as people weren't drifting or doing burnouts in the parking lot.....the police never messed with us once so I think that spot will be likely for a lot of meets next year.

We had a few meets with JDM chicago in downtown by Montrose Harbor and they were all successful. Police drove by and didn't do anything. Is this place big by any chance where the meets go down?

April sounds pretty great. I can at least get 3-4 more tCs with us :D I am working on mine as we speak. Next month most of the things should be done but still have to wait up for rims. How many people will come?

Sweet! We usually got around 8-10 people out. The great thing about last season was that everybody was cool and we never got kicked out by the cops! I'm hoping that we can all roll up to some "Friday Night Lights" events this year. I would love to come 10-15 scion's deep!

My tC will still be in the shop but I'll definitely try and get the word out! Looking forward to having some nice turnouts for meets this year.
