Holy Crap about 2 more weeks till Maxus.

[Xmax]

Wow its almost 2 more weeks till Maxus. We have gotten so far and so much to do still yet its so close. I need to gather and finish a few things here and there but I'm pretty sure we'll get things done down to the wire. I would like to thank all the people that put their effort into Maxus. I want to name people, but you guys definantly know who you are, without you guys, this would have never happend. :drinkingbuds: :wifive: :hug:

[Kowalski]

that $1 I donated better be put to good use... :wall:

[Xmax]

oh heck ya

[kkozy1982]

oh heck ya

so yea... some time within the next week we'll finalize and ship out??

[Mr Grey]

I was going to ask you guys about Chicago Indoor racing, and T-Shirts. I'm already working a few things in my head for back-up plans of things to do.

[Xmax]

Chicago Indooor Racing is in the works as far as reservations and stuff, and the t-shirts me and Kozue have the front end of the shirt done, all we have to do is work on the back, which should not be hard.

[Brian]

let me know if you need anything out of me.
I'll be out of town next weekend though.

[DasTeknoViking]

I will be ordering the keg next week then....... :)

[Bluesbrekr]

Ordered my E-Pass transponder on Monday and a neighbor offered his for Tim. It'll be so nice not to have to stop and throw money in the basket......

Flying to Florida for vacation next Monday. The Max will probably look like arse cause I won't have time to get it ready.

[DasTeknoViking]

E-Pass ? I know they got those in FL, but in IL they got I-PASS. Does E-pass work here too ? I go to FL alot and the tolls piss me off, especially since the fees are kinda tall and traffic blows on the manual lanes.

[Kowalski]

I-Pass and E-Pass and EZPass are all the same thing... they all work nationwide...

[Brian]

I-Pass and E-Pass and EZPass are all the same thing... they all work nationwide...
from where do you get this info?
I know I-pass and EZpass have an agreement for MOST tolls.
E-pass I dunno

[DasTeknoViking]

Yeah I would like to know if my I-Pass would work in FL.... shit if it did that would be sweet. There is tolls on the FL Turnpike like every 4-5 miles and they are 75c each. Its not that the tolls are there, they have Fast Pass everywhere.... and traffic at the manual lanes are huge due to the tourists !

[Bluesbrekr]

My bad....I got the I-Pass.

[Goldtooth]

IIRC I remember reading that the I-Pass only works here in Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin?

[Brian]

1. Wisconsin does not have tollways
2. it works on the east coast (NY/NJ/PA etc..)

doesnt work in indiana....i was just on the skyway yesterday...it worked on the first $2.50 toll in illinois, but then when you get across the border into indiana and have to pay $.50 it doesnt work. i was confused on this as well, and made a little line of traffic, untill the attendant took my money.....:banghead:

[Brian]

we need signs from the road
Coolers
Ice
Charcoal (assuming someone will be grilling)
anything else not so obvious we can think of?
sorry, we just did a BBQ for my brothers clients earlier today and those were things that I don't recall us mentioning in the meetings.

[DasTeknoViking]

I think thats pretty much all taken care off.... I will be ordering the keg this week ;)

[Kowalski]

well, we've got grills and there will be a forest nearby... plenty of fuel there...

[Xmax]

Yup I'm still working on the packets, won't be long before they are done. I going to schedule a meeting on Sunday the 17th the same week as Maxus starts and I hope all of you can make it because this meeting is very important.

exactly. back when i lived in michigan i had to pay $1.20 in 3 tolls in indiana to go back home. WI has nothing. MI has nothing. Just mainly home of the fags and open toll BS that was not needed.

[Brian]

I happen to love Illinois' open tolls.

[DasTeknoViking]

Just wait they gonna start using those damn open road tolls to measure how fast you get from one toll plaza to another.... ticket in the mail.

I will have to go through the manual lanes.

already started...........i know first hand, but it was actually speeding through the gate, not driving speed from gate to gate.

[digitalbow]

already started...........i know first hand, but it was actually speeding through the gate, not driving speed from gate to gate. haha :owned:... and i'm never following u anywhere again. there was no reason to do 90 down to Kozue's...

[walec05]

^^^we had to ummmmm....get there early to.....ya, ur right. it was stupid.

[DasTeknoViking]

How do you know they ticket you for speeding through the tolls ? I never heard my radar detector go off.... and it does go off for speed cameras.

[walec05]

i had to pay the fuckin fine that came in the mail.............

[DasTeknoViking]

hmm which toll was this on ? Also how do they know who was driving the car ? Lets say I got a dealer plate on a car ?

Sounds like they have to have some kinda camera in front of the car too....

Let me know, I drive alot on tolls etc.... kinda worries me. I will have to start using the streets if this is indeed truth.

[walec05]

it was the one by daves house on....fuck...what the hell is that road...man, that toll by the golf range. cant think of the name. basically i was going way over the limit, and i got a nice fine in the mail. it got my rear plate/time of day/mph/ipass cust# too. it sucked and i payed it, but oh well, im not that stupid anymore.

[DasTeknoViking]

No pic of your face or anything ? that pretty lame. I would go to court and be like this is BS. I need to make myself a shield for my plate...... got some ideas.

[digitalbow]

^ just steal Paul's plates and put em on

[Xmax]

One week please make it to the meeting this Sunday if you can.

[Brian]

One week please make it to the meeting this Sunday if you can.
no can do.
I'm 800+ miles away
I'd rather be there.
the East coast sucks

[DasTeknoViking]

Sunday evening I will be there. I'm going to order up the beer tomorrow.

50L of Beck's should do ?

[Kowalski]

50L of Beck's should do ?

100L to compensate for the local polskis...

[97SMG]

100L to compensate for the local polskis...

But then we would have to take their car keys away. :glare:

[Kowalski]

car pooling time... i'm not on the org so why would it matter if my car is there or not...

[DasTeknoViking]

50 L is about 150 beers roughly speaking.... I doubt we will drink all of it. I don't need to bring home beer with me.

[Kowalski]

I don't need to bring home beer with me.

dibs............

[Ovaltine Jenkins]

Right rooney, I might as well call dibs since you'll just store the beer at my place anyway...

[Kowalski]

Right rooney, I might as well call dibs since you'll just store the beer at my place anyway...

sounds good...

[DasTeknoViking]

No dibs, I gotta return the keg.

[walec05]

unless he wants to pay the deposit....if anything, just bring the keg to my place, we'll have a polski get together and empty it out.

[Kowalski]

No dibs, I gotta return the keg.

never said it won't be returned... but it will be returned empty...
