Calling all thirdgen's in Northwest suburbs!!

Ok every one heres the deal beside from going to Crete for the Third Gen fest this year would anyone consider starting up a little gathering here. Maybe even starting a club. Does this Summer sound good or should there be an earlier time.

Lets get some ideas together maybe we could make this possible.

Post up some ideas here.!!!

I would be up for this, and my brother would probably be too. I think a club would be cool.

Re: Calling all thirdgen's in Northwest suburbs!!

Busse woods is usually a nice place to gather around. I know of a few lots that are usually empty. The RC group i'm with meets every sunday from 12:00 to sundown in the spring/summer/fall.

As long as we are under 25 people then no one will say anything.

I never get my car to anything, however I got a big raise at work so i think my car will be hot-cammed, LE1 heads and a T56 by the end of the year.

Re: Calling all thirdgen's in Northwest suburbs!!

If you can swing keeping the car without putting a strain on the budget then by all means do so.

However, if you need money remember that selling the car is a quick fix, it won't permanantly increase your income.

In the end I'd sell the car if i needed money for my kid though. I'm not a father so don't have kids unless you count 2 cats and a dog.
