I'm thinking somewhere around 169 and co rd 9. Its about 2 miles east of the park. However, I'll be going from uptown, so if people want to join the caravan earlier, cool.I'll be checking out 169/co rd 9 this weekend to see what's there.

I'm very unfamiliar with that area. It's basically just 1/2 mile to get on 169 and then right to co road 9 for me. Let us know what you find down there for lots and such to meet in.

Okay, I dropped by the park to make sure I knew exactly where things are.At the exchange of 169 and co rd 9 (rockford rd), there is a medical complex (Camden Physicians or something like that) that has a small parking lot that appears to be empty on Saturdays. In that area there are also a Shell and Holiday gas stations, and Burger King for reference. At the 1st light after exiting 169 (west on co rd 9), turn right and right again on the frontage road. and follow to parking lot.The meet is just @2 miles away, so I figure I'll be at the lot @ 11:45 and will head out to the park at noon.Sound good?I'll also try to fix up some sort of sign to rep NICO.

By the way. There is a speed bump at the entrance to the park. I cleared without problem and I've got @3" ground clearance. There is no speed bump in the exit lane, so if you're too low for the bumps, you may be able to sneak through the exit lane.

Sure, but which 'lot' are you talking about meeting in at 11:45?

I think if we meet up at the camden physicians lot @11:45, then we can group our cars together when we roll into the park.Is that more clear? Sorry for confusion.

I think I have a good idea of where that is. I just come down 169 going south, merge onto CR9, then make a right onto Lancaster Lane and another right after that. I'm pretty that would put me exactly at the Camden Physicians lot.

I'm down.

Make that 4 now. Also, we may want to start a generic thread in the Midwest Region index. That may, or may not draw more attention.

No, i have 6 motors.

two of them are s14 motors, and i definately dont have s14s. So, my s14 distributors, sensors and the like are useless to me.

i have parts out the ***.
