OK, so you guys don't have all the fun I'll come in the morning as well, coffee in hand...
Here's an idea... One of the "chase" cars with a photographer can also put my gopro on the suction mount on the back at an angle into the lane over so we can grab some video

Yeah, I'm confused now. Why they have 2 different meets at the same time and day, one at Tilted Kilt Schaumburg and another one at Tilted Kilt Naperville?

My fault. Another Chicago Z forum meet is on September 15th, Sunday. I don't think that show in Woodridge is going to be any good, judging by the pictures in Google.
Any other suggestions?

There is a big JDMC Official meet aka FNL Saturdays at 6pm that day, if some of you want to attend.

May I suggest that we change our Dim Sum place to Minghin instead of Phoenix? There are more unique selections at Minghin. Oh no worries, they only have one style of the Chicken Feet dish. 
http://www.minghincuisine.com/
Minghin is located at 2168 S. Archer Ave Chicago IL. It is located inside of the Chinatown Square. Just the opposite end of the parking lot.

No one knows their chicken feet like you Andy. To be honest I doubt most of us will know the difference between the two.

Tick tock, tick tock... Lets stamp this schedule finalized soon, or people will be going to different places
I like both places. Minghin is nicer inside, their oxtail dish was awesome.
What about car show? I originally thought there will be a JDM/Euro meet down there, but looks like it's a muscle car show, as far as I know.

7am for Photoshop? Dang, I can't make it too early plus I'll have my offspring with me.
^Is there anything going on at the Schaumburg Kilt that day?
