Would that give us time to meet up with your group?

We're likely leaving the southern meet point at about 11:45-12:00, which would put you at least a half hour to an hour behind us, depending on which airport you're in...

Please let me know if you are interested so that I can scout an easy location for us to all meet and be able to get on the interstate easily. I will also make a Wisco thread incase some of the others do not check out the Chicagoland thread.

Sounds good. I updated the first post with some routes an time information... my intention is to have the Itasca group leave their meet point at like 10 AM

To all Camaros in Southeast Wisconsin who are traveling to C5F on Thursday 8/2:

If you would like to meet in Kenosha and Camarovan to the Oasis meet point via I94/I294 together let me know. It's a little less than a 2 hour drive from Kenosha so I am planning on leaving around 9:30am - 9:45am in order to get down to South Holland by 11:30.

If anyone is interested let me know and I'll find a good Kenosha meet point.

If you are traveling down from western or central Wisconsin you might want to look at Mantis RS's post if you aren't planning on driving down via Kenosha.

Ok, I'll work on getting the car for 10 am. and get it out of the Midway Airport and that will get us closer to the Southern meet point.

I'll be joining at the kenosha meeting point.

Ok I know I already posted this, but... (also thanks for the mention Xello)

To all Camaros in South Central/Central Wisconsin who are traveling to C5F on Thursday 8/2: [mainly Madison Area, Janesville, and further north like Wisconsin Dells, Stevens Point, Wausua area]

If you would like to meet in South Beloit at the Road Ranger(6070 Gardner Street South Beloit, IL 61080) and Camarovan to the Itasca meet point via I90/I290 together let me know. It's about a 1.5 hour drive from South Beloit, so the plan would be to leave around 8am (8:30am at the latest) in order to make sure we are down and staged ready to leave the Westin in Itasca at 10:00am.

I created a thread to keep this group organized, so we know whose all going please head to it and post if you will be joining this group, so know one is left behind or playing catch up.

I'm up for meeting in Kenosha on Thursday morning. Just let me know what time and where.

To all Camaros in Southeast Wisconsin who are traveling to C5F on Thursday 8/2:

Since WiDot is doing contruction on I-94 in Kenosha, the best place to meet is at the rest stop off of Hwy 165 (Exit 347). The rest stop is on the east side of the Interstate. It's the same exit you would take to go to the outlet mall. There is also a BP station if you need fuel and a Culvers and McDonald's for eats or drinks.

We'll meet in and leave from the the rest stop parking lot. I would like to leave between 9:30 and 9:45am as there is some construction on I-294 which may slow us down just a little. But I think we will still be okay for time. It will take an 1 1/2 to 2 hours to get to the South Holland Oasis and meet up with the Chicago group. There are tolls along the way but if you don't have an I-Pass we'll slow as we pass them so you can pay and catch back up.

I'll PM my cell number to anyone who posts that they want to meet so you can call if you might be a little late.

Meeting at the Kenosha rest stop:

Dacannon · 07-19-2012, 10:31 PM

CAMARO_MOW · 07-20-2012, 11:08 AM

I would like to travel with the group. I am in northwest Indiana already. What time do you think you will be getting on I-65 in Indiana? I can always jump on the train while it is moving.....

CAMARO_MOW · 07-23-2012, 10:16 AM

Good deal! I think I will try and meet you around 65 and 30 at about that time. Hopefully it works out!!!
