    Indiana/ Chicagoland meet- Sept. 15th, merrillville, IN 11 am- Be there or ban!

    Ok fellow fives-

    After speaking with some of you in the other thread RacerX911 and I have collaborated a little to come up with this plan.

    The meet will be held Sept. 15th in Merrillville, IN. Racerx911 has offered his business as a place for us to meet, and I think that is a fine idea.

    We will meet at his shop, have a meet and greet and optional cigar while others arrive.

    Directions/ address:
    behind the walgreens...and across from the meijers...can't miss it!

    8075 madison street
    merrillville IN, 46410


    Once we are sure everyone has arrived we will be driving to the Southlake Mall which is nearby for a photo shoot. There's lots of room at the mall to arrange the cars and take some nice shots.

    After photos and more 5 series talk we will be heading over to Buffalo wild wings for lunch and drinks. BW's has a good lunch menu in my opinion.

    From lunch we will play it by ear- maybe a scenic drive?


    Although none of this is set in stone this is the basic plan.

    I know there were a couple of us that opted for a sunday meet and I apologize. I was thinking if you skipped lunch with us maybe some of you could come out just for a quick meet and greet and some pics. I look forward to meeting you guys and gals and your cars!

    As said in .info, I'm there.

    EDIT: Post it in the E34 section, I don't want to be the only one there but that's cool if it works out like that.

    I still feel like we are forgetting someone. Who has a roadfly account? I think I do but I can't remember. Post up a thread there if you would.

    Man.... 400mi round trip. It sounds so very worth it. It's just what I need this time of year. Put me on the "leaning towards a yes" list.

    Anyone want to caravan from Muncie Indiana? OR anyone wanna join up on my way through I65? That would be the deal maker for me.
    One expensive unicycle.

    I'll be there. Keep me in the loop. I'm in Grand Rapids, so it's a bit of a drive, but I would definately love this.

    Mapquest says I'm 2.5 hours away which really makes me want to go since it isn't that far away. However, with work I can't really committ to anything like this so hopefully I make it. If not have fun and take lots of pics!

    Not a bad idea. Anyone want to consider caravaning from the West Michigan area?

    anybody mind posting a little map so we have a general idea of where merrillville is? And a caravan from chi-town would be nice if anyone else from the chi is going.

    EDIT:
    Just mapquest'd it, I've been there before, and I know where the buffalo place is. I might make it if i can, no promises.

    I'm coming from Bloomington...but I go through Indy to get to Chicago. If you're on my way then I'd definitely join you.
