Re: Hooters gathering, Sept 19th, 6:00pm in Downers Grove, IL.
If you are going to that area you guys should really think about going to the Brick House (It's pretty much at the corner of Finley and Butterfield, just east of red lobster) instead. Better food, better trampy waitresses, better beer.... Classier joint. It's really not a difference in price either.
I would go but I will be out of town that day.

Mark me down for that, I'm taking that whole weekend off all the way till the 27th! I hope I can get the subs rewired and the torque arm in by then. If not, I'll show up anyway but with the 305 bird instead.

Remember guys, the UFC fight will be on that night so it'll get crowded. I'm a very big MMA fan and will be staying to watch the fight too. Anyone else?

By the way.
6. Ken with the 89 Formy
Possible my girl will bring the 88 305 slow poke.
I'm telling you, you would have PLENTY to see at the Brickhouse. No one will be disappointed. I promise. I have been there twice, and it smokes hooters.
Their moto should be better food better beer, better bimbos.
I just wish I could go, but I am gonna be out of town.
Re: Hooters gathering, Sept 19th, 6:00pm in Downers Grove, IL.
OK, well the formy 350 is running and bottle is filled but my girl wants to bring the Fiero instead of the other third gen. Would it be out of place to bring an 86 Fiero GT? It is a fastback and kinda looks like a third gen. She doesn't want to drive a "boat" that far. When did a third gen seem like a boat? What about a mid 80's caprice, that's a boat, or a celebrity station wagon, that would be a boat.
Women don't understand, but yeah, I'll be there with the red formy 350. Anyone wanna help me hookup my Alpine flipscreen?

We Love Fiero's, bring it out. I keep my eye's peeled for Fiero all the time. Would love to pick one up for a 2nd project car to work on.
Especially Fiero's with Turbos, Superchargers, V8's, or any other sort of modded motor.
I'd love to see what a new 300hp V6 would do in a Fiero. Mid 12's I'd think. 2500lbs, 300hp, Yeah that'll go.
Re: Hooters gathering, Sept 19th, 6:00pm in Downers Grove, IL.

Re: Hooters gathering, Sept 19th, 6:00pm in Downers Grove, IL.
Well, if everyone is cool with a fiero showing up, than I'll be there.
Sorry but I was kidding about hooking up the flipscreen, I don't need help, it's just a major PITA to trim behind the stock location to fit a D106, because that is also where I put the module for the autopage alarm. Yeah, I know, good thinking right?
If you change to the brickhouse, someone needs to park their third gen as close to butterfield road as possible so I know where I'm going. I haven't been over there since high school. I miss that circuit city that was over there.
Re: Hooters gathering, Sept 19th, 6:00pm in Downers Grove, IL.
Fiero's clutch is acting up but I'm still going. I think I have a bad exhaust gasket though. It is ticking from the back of the passenger side header. Well, I'll be there, none the less.

My car just developed and exhaust tick too. Might fix it tomorrow. If not, the car will be there anyways, tick and all.
Re: Hooters gathering, Sept 19th, 6:00pm in Downers Grove, IL.
So is it still hooter's or we going to the brickhouse? Someone needs to make a choice because I don't want to go to hooter's and be the only one there. I think I would look like a dumb@$$ and it would not be cool.
Re: Hooters gathering, Sept 19th, 6:00pm in Downers Grove, IL.
Give me your number and then I'll complain until you agree to come out here. It is about 40 minutes drive for me and I hope to see at least 10 cars there. Can someone tell me if it is at hooter's or not! I'll leaving in two hours so please, someone tell me what is going on.
Re: Hooters gathering, Sept 19th, 6:00pm in Downers Grove, IL.
I hear I missed a good time.. just got home from work and about to have some wings and beer. Too bad I couldn't enjoy it with you guys tonight

You did miss a good time. It was fun for me to meet other F body lovers and not ricers. Anyway, I think it was a good time except for my slightly racist comments (I'm not racist) and all around a good time. Next time, you guys need to show up. Only five cars were there we could've used so many more.
