Drive Safe everyone!!!!Sorry you cant make it Jerry!Man I should have been getting stuff ready yesterday; there just isn't enough time!

If you guys happen to see a bunch of Scions this weekend... look for a white xB with a big orange Scikotics sticker on the back window, that's me! If I see you guys... I'll be the xB honking at all the Vibes! I'll be rollin' through/into Indy around 6am on Saturday and I'll be there all weekend.I would have been there with you guys if it wasn't for this big event being scheduled on the same day.

Quote, originally posted by ramenboy... »guys, i tried, but this weekend isn't gonna cut it. damn!!!!! this is going to be one helluva meet. take lots of pics! Sorry to hear you can't make it Jerry . Don't worry, we are currently working on the plans for the Chicagoland Vibe Drive In meet in the next few months which I'm sure will be easier for you to make . You know darn well there will be a ton of pictures, videos, stories, etc.!Quote, originally posted by tpollauf »We'll make evening plans early on while at the park where we all will be. In the event of a few who are on a tight budget, don't let that stop you from enjoying a nice dinner and additional conversation. I personally will gladly help out some fellow Vibers with a meal and or drink. As the father of only one son, I could temporarily adopt a few of you young pups for the day (I never got the daughter I always wanted ), and SPOIL you There will be too much to do in little time and I will be enjoying every minute of it! Awww... that's so sweet Tim, but I'll be fine. I just won't really want to spend money on the go karts or anything like that, but that doesn't mean I won't be there as a spectator hanging out . Again, thanks for the offer though. You're too sweet! On a bit of a side note, I am an only child .Quote, originally posted by tpollauf »Nope !!! It's all the 09/10 Vibes that finally have a place in this meet .'09 Vibes FTW! We're going to own this meet ! We are going to get some awesome pictures of all the '09s (I actually don't think they are any '10s coming)!Quote, originally posted by ponta2147 »Ok, we are confirmed for the Castleton Square Buca di Beppo at 8pm, I just have to call back this evening and arrange the menu (I'm doing one of the party package family style menus, it's way easier for large groups, don't worry I'm really good at picking variety for different people's tastes). It's under my name and also under GenVibe (figured that would be easier for people to remember!) and I said it would be about 20 people at dinner (if it looks like it will be more, I'll call them and let them know). The price will be a flat fee that I'll cover on the credit card and then depending on how many people come to dinner, we'll split it evenly!Thanks for doing all this for us Michelle ! You're the best !Quote, originally posted by audiovibe »Man I should have been getting stuff ready yesterday; there just isn't enough time!I agree. I always wait til the last minute to pack everything . You'd think I would have learned by now .The Vibe is clean and about 90% packed. I will pack everything else up tomorrow when I get home from work. Just a reminder for everyone that will be arriving tomorrow, the Chicagoland caravibe should be arriving sometime between 8:00 & 8:30 et so be sure to be keeping an eye out for us to roll in !Aron, Michelle and Tim, I will see you guys tomorrow at 3! Everyone have a safe, fun trip !

Indy Area Road Construction Updates:There is road construction both directions on I-65 between Mile Marker 139 (third Lebanon exit) and 129 (Exit for I-865 east to connect to I-465 North leg to Castleton and I-69. It's 2-lanes each way, and there usually isn't a lot of back-up, but the speed is SLOW 45mph while they're working, and 55 mph when they're not working, instead of 70 mph. And they do enforce it pretty well during busy times.There is also a lot of construction on I-465 north leg between Meridian Street and Allisonville Road. It causes huge rush hour backups, mostly east-bound.

Quote, originally posted by jkm311 »Also, I have a few cell numbers from peeps. Anyone else want to share theirs with me? I have no problem sharing my info: The Vibe hotline 419-279-9754 (On-Star satelite phone), and my regular cell 419-392-7072. I may arrive between 1 & 2 on Saturday and might stop by the car wash first to see who is there. Otherwise it's straight to the park

Mine is elsewhere on the forum and probably the rest of the interwebs, so I don't mind posting - 773 307 2360

Car is all done! Interior isn't perfect, but I don't really care. Heading out early in the AM to spend the day at the waterpark in Yorkville before caravibing out with the rest of the Chi-town crew. See you on Friday night or Saturday afternoon!

My cell is 256-347-9037 with Verizon.Text anytime (pics, vid, doesn't matter)literally....anytime, I work overnight and hardly sleep so I'm up all hours of the night.

oh man meet sounds crazy! if I still had the vibe id be all in and follow bluecrush down. have fun you guys!

I am at work right now but I get off at 1pm. I gotta grab my camera and clothes from home. I will be meeting up with the Chicago Vibe people in YorkVille around 3pm. See you all there!Also I will be bringing the Refinish Restorer for the Vibes with the cladding. If anyone wants to try it out just let me know. I also have a 3rd brake overlay for whoever wants it (first come first served) and I have a set of seat covers (opened but never installed) that I am selling for $40 (bought from someone here for $60). I like them aside from the color. They are a little lighter than my stock interior.Anywho see you all there I am completely pumped for the meet!!!

On-Star is 260-729-7348; regular cell is 260-726-5603.

I'm planning on driving to the park right after lunch, so I will be there before 2PM as well - will be happy to help stake out a good parking locale. But I don't have any cones either.

I am pretty sure I will be there well before 2. I have nothing else going on so why not lol.

I am officially heading out, I will see the Chicago peeps in Yorkville, See some of you tonight at dinner, and see the rest of y'all tomorrow!

What an awesome time! Thanks to everyone that came, we would love to make this an annual thing (with regional mini-meets in between).

Great people. Good times. Nice Vibes. Big shout out to everyone that drove some serious miles.

looks like a great showing! Glad everyone arrived safely.

Well my gang is headin out kinda early in the mornin. Probably 8 or 9 so we can hopefully hit Import Alliance in Tennessee Some road trip huh?

Oh, and I'm not sue if any of you folks ventured into Indianapolis at all?But I cruised thru around 11pm and I'm REALLY glad we chose the park instead of ACTUAL Indy!Nice rides everywhere, but WOW it was packed!!!Stop/Go traffic and roads blocked off, cops everywhere, just mayhem.When they said it was black expo in Indy, it was no joke.Apparently it's a pretty huge event

I just wanted to thank everyone who made this happen and run smoothly. Thanks to everyone who came out and a HUGE thank you to Kostby and Ponta for doing the legwork and organization. I had a GREAT time and wish that my time with you all lasted longer.I will be posting pics soon.

PsychoMartyr, Indiana Black Expo is one of the largest cultural gatherings in the US, and celebrating 40th years. --> http://www.indianablackexpo.com/default.aspThere were 9 people injured in shootings around Black Expo events in downtown Indianapolis on Saturday night, so the police were on high alert --> http://www.wibc.com/news/Story.aspx?id=1253930 Glad you're safe!

Thanks also to jkm311 for starting this thread months ago, and everyone who showed up at CAGSMI2010.The early evening photo-shoot at Quality Inn and dinner at Buca di Beppo was... (words fail me)!We Genviber's make a heck of a flash mob!I'm still sorting through pics, but I promised to post THIS one of Ponta2147 first...And yes, despite appearances, (and thanks to a strategically placed bag of pretzels), this IS STILL a family-friendly forum!

LOL Kostby that is great.I created a GenVibe member gallery. Just register an account and I will approve you to create albums and post pics.My pics from this weekend are here: http://www.genvibegallery.timo...-2010

Hahah. More pics! More pics! More pics!

I had such a great time at the meet! Huge thanks to those who organized it. There was a good turnout and the photo shoot at the hotel was amazing! Can't wait till next year!

Looks like everyone had fun! Wish I could of made it, but it has been super crazy of late.

Great meet guys!!! I got home a lil after 1, Seems my alarm at the Hotel didn't work, Last night about 11:00 the clock said it was P.M. This morning at 8:30 it also said P.M.. I guess that is why the 5:30 A.M. Alarm didn't go off.Traffic wasn't that bad and had no issues on the way home so the spare got to stay in the car.
