    Looks like we are tentatively at 27 with 5 days left to pick up another 13 people to make this a go.

    So far as the question of "Vw only"... We usually trended towards European cars only... I think one year a guy snuck in with a Ford....Pizzed everybody off.

    Hard to predict when fall colors would be at peak. Most probable weekends would be October 6-7, 13-14, 20-21. Will for sure be one of those 3 weekends if we have enough interest.

    They were mad cause they were being out performed by a Ford. AND it was a European package so was technically legal.

    I think the only reason we let that ford run was because he was such a fan of "W"

    Looks like this is a go for this year.
    Please post up or PM me if any of the following dates do not work for you.
    If there is one weekend or another that does not work for a lot of folks I will try to avoid that weekend.


    October 6-7, 13-14, 20-21

    I will be posting updates here.
    Please follow this thread

    I do need some volunteers for route design.
    We will do a few meetings to gather ideas and divide the area.
    PM me if you are interested.

    I vote for the end of the month. I'm sure a few of us will be pretty "driven out" after the long haul to H20i.

    I'm definitely in. As long as it's not the weekend of Oct 13th & 14th. Doing a track day at Road America that day

    I'd be interested if it was a Saturday, probably spend the night up there somewhere aftwerwards rather than drive back to Chicago. Make a nice fall weekend out of it with the misses. Here honey, have a brat and beer

    I am in. Just tell me when and where to meet up. FWIW the 13-14 works best for me as I'm off that weekend but I should be able to switch a day if need be.
