Anyone up for a BWW meet again?
Me and dean are tossing around the idea of doing another BWW meet. Last year we had a decent turnout, and hope for more this year.
I have no idea when yet, but assume in the next month and on a wed night in elmhurst IL. They have a car show that night so we have something to look at besides each other
Anyone have any date suggestions?

Re: Anyone up for a BWW meet again?
I guess its obvious since you mentioned my name in the thread, but I'll be there whatever Wednesday it is, lol
I'll at least have Niky's '98 T/A..
If its further in the future, maybe I'll have my Z running too

Re: Anyone up for a BWW meet again?
Correct. Plus its right in the middle for most of us. There's a few very close to that location, Bill's way up north, I'm way up northwest, Dave is way out west, and a few of you are down south.

Re: Anyone up for a BWW meet again?
I think we should try to meet up between 6:30 or 7 either at the top of the parking garage, or pick a spot before bww and we can cruise in together.
Been busy with crap this week, but the 10th works for me.

Re: Anyone up for a BWW meet again?
Your car wouldn't be "chopping" because of bad valve lash...unless its waaayyyy off.. if you mean ticking, I can understand...but if you have a rough idle, I'd be leaning towards something else..

Re: Anyone up for a BWW meet again?
Or you could set it back to #1 (watch for both #1 intake/exhaust to close), then re-lash it cylinder by cylinder.
There are a few ways to do it. I found every one of them on these boards. Hell, probably have a few threads floating around with answered questions under my old name.

Re: Anyone up for a BWW meet again?
Not a problem Daves if the cars won't be there, it'd just be nice to see you guys. Don't think I've seen either of you since last year's meet.
I'm positive my car won't be running either, but we'll bring the fiance's T/A

Re: Anyone up for a BWW meet again?
If I can get Hubby to take the daughter to and from soccer practice, I'll be there... I haven't taken the car out since I had the engine work done about 3 weeks ago, so it will be nice to test her out... He fixed anything and everything according to the receipt LOL...

Re: Anyone up for a BWW meet again?
Okay, i have some good and some bad news. Good news is we have people interested in coming out.
Bad news is it seems that the car show will be over!! grrrr
But, if we get enough people out, we can look at each others cars and hang out on top the parking garage, talk, eat, cruise?
I am okay with that, sorry about the car show, i was almost certain it ran till oct.
Lets hear some opinions, if we stay this route i will sticky this, if anyone has other ideas we can change it.
