Ok the time has come where all of us need to get together and start our own chapter. Iv heard ideas of this happening, but no one ever goes through. Just send me an email at SpeeDemonX@comcast.net if any one is at all interested. once i have enough replys, i will set up a meet date centraly located to every one, and we will all go from there! I am dead serious about this!

Guys/gals, we do have the one email, but bombarding our club email box with emails is not the way to get a chapter started. Obviously, you can use this existing forum to communicate about events and meets.

We have been holding up on creating new chapter forums until we can formulate a more organized approach to developing chapters under the SCCoA main club. Once we have decided on this approach (with member input, of course) we will post better quidelines for establishing chapters.

But in the meantime, please establish meets on a local level and use this forum to communicate.

Well guys it looks like for right now we cannot start a Chapter. BUT from now on if anybody comes up with an idea of any kind at all just post it in the non tech forum and we can use that for meets and such. How many of you are up for a get together at a resturant or something? Seems like most of you guys live on the south side. Sat, nights are good for me and I dont care where. Just a chance for us to meet each other and maybe come up with some ideas of what we may want to do together this spring. We have something started so lets not let it die out. Maybe if some of the other guys in the area see us getting together they may want to jump in too. Tim

I live in Glenwood, IL. I have seen a white SC in the local shop over here, does this belong to anyone? And I am up for meets. Glenwood is near Chicago Heights, Homewood, Thorton, Hazelcrest, etc. Let me know...

ok well i think we have a good 8-10 people. and yes i would love the idea of meeting at a resturant. (not at a bar, Not 21) sry, but this is what i suggest. every 1 reply with there info, location, times available, model, yr of car. and based on all the info, we can all come to a decision on where to meet!

Ok well I have a 90 s.c. I live in Antioch Il. Way north but traveling is no problem. I dont drive the S.C. in the winter. We should plan something soon or it will be just another good idea that died. Sat. is best for me a night would work out for those that have to work during the day. So ok you guys down there on the south end How about we start the new year out right and plan something for the 8th. day of Jan. 2005. That will give us time to agree on a place. Denneys is fine with me. I think its a good idea not to drink and drive. Now lets step up to the plate! Tim

If you need a ride sure. It wont be in the S.C. cause thats put away for the winter. Crown Vic it is. Its fun on the tollway cause it looks like a squad car.

Hopfully we will have quite a turnout. Maybe we can plan some future events for later in the year. For sure a spring drag strip meet at union grove. :D

Just talked to Frank from Indiana. He said he will try and make it too. Looks like we may have quite a turnout. :)

SpeedDemon, I got those wiring diagrams in a single PDF file, it's 3 MB in size. Let me know where I can email them or upload them.

Count me out for strip meets. Drag racing doesn't interest me. If beating the crap out of a car for a measly 10-15 seconds of thrill once in a while sounded fun I wouldn't start with a 2 ton unibody car anyway.
Flame me! :D

SpeeDemonSC
12-23-2004, 04:32 PM
you can email me them. Speedemonx@comcast.net thanx again.. and you dont have race, but you can at least come out and watch us beat the crap out of our cars! thats always a blast
