A few years back (maybe 3 or 4?) We had a meetup at Bong which I considered to be a success. We cooked out and took some cool pics of our cars in the scenery. Anyone interested in doing this again?

Would a different spot be better? How about a Sevens Take Over cruise where we take over a cruise-in like QS&L or Georgie's?

My car probably won't be out for another month (doing a bunch of work on it) but after that I'd like to cruise it like it's going out of style.

 

Im interested. I like food and rx7's and im in WI. Sounds like a perfect fit for me

 

Definitely interested. Kou and a few others were talking about doing another 7/7 meet in July if that's not too far out.

I need finish up a few things with the fd first too.

 

Well there's that Steve Kan tuning session in 2 weeks west of chicago. I'm opting out since i broke my hand and can't finish my project on time. Otherwise I'm game to do a meet up sometime.

 

My car won't make it to the SK Tuning thing either. Taking it to my dad's shop to begin roughly a month's worth of work today. Sucks not having a garage.

 

Anything ever come of this?

 

Hi gentle men. I am in the middle of planning a 7's day meeting with another guy from IL. Location is being discuss, somewhere between IL & WI. Any suggestions, please comment below. Thanks.

 

I am driving out to Union Grove Dragway for summer racing- maybe connect with track to host for discount tix...and maybe throw down on track. Either way, I'll be in for meet-up

 

Ill make it there, just not sure if the FD will be running or not by then though.

 

Ha agreed. not sure the car will be roadworthy either.

 

I'm down, depending on date...

 

im in

 

After 3 months my car should finally be drivable within the next 2 weeks... guess it was more of a project than I intended it to be (but the outcome is looking good!)

 

I'm in!

 

Here it is:

July 6, 2014

Location: Ned Brown Preserve
Higgins and Golf Road
Elk Grove Village, IL 60007


Meeting area: Grove 24 parking lot (near Busse Lake Boating Center)


Time: 12pm


As most of you know, every year the Japanese rotary enthusiasts gather on July 7th as a commemoration to the RX-7's or rotary in general. I started a meet last year and would like to continue this meet as a tradition every year.
July 7th will fall on a Monday, therefore, we will hold the meet on Sunday. We will meet at 12pm, socialize and take photos for an hour or two. Then head over to the Japanese market, Mitsuwa, to grab lunch. This will be a great opportunity to meet other rotary enthusiast from Wisconsin and Illinois.
If you're from WI and would like to drive down together, please let me know ahead of time. We can set a time and location to meet up.

I cringe at the fact that I won't have my car back together by that date. Hopefully I can come down and check out other people's RX is to see what I can look forward to, when I'm done in the next coming weeks. Cheerio! See ya chaps fantastic rides soon.

 

Oh I suppose I could probably make an appearance.

 

Fingers crossed mine will be up and running by then. I'm pretty sure I'm in regardless

 

I'll be there.

 

i'll be there

 

I'll be there

 

Got mine running! I have no excuse not to be there.
Did you ever set a meet up spot?

 

Great!
You are the first to mention this. I'm looking to hit the road by 9:30, no later then 10. I will confirm with other local members if they're in, to determine a time and location to depart.

 

I'm the one who set up the meet at bong a few years back. I think I may be coming to this meet, but possibly go to the gld meet

 

Forecast say it is going to storm that day, so finger X ...
