CAPP II...great time!
In brief...CAPP II was a great success!
10 Proteges in all. '92 LX, '97 LX, 3-2000 ES's, 2001 MP3, and 4-2002 P5's (all different colors). No hiccups in meeting, we all found each other right away (Thanks Starbucks).
Caravaned over to Busse Woods Forest Preserve and set up. Good food (Patrick's Taco Salad was great! My chicken was pretty good if I may brag!) and great company. All attendees were very friendly and the information was abundant!
Highlights of the cars?
Patrick's 92 LX. Nice Parada tires and rims. Good example of a first-gen
Pat's 97 LX. Shocking green paint on emblem and engine bay. Unusual but effective and different!
Eric's 2000 ES. Where to start? Suspension mods, cabin mods, Altezza taillights, great rims and S-03 tires, WELL DONE gauge package, and plenty of technical know-how.
Dale 2000 ES. Slightly damp interior (She'll explain....) Hello Kitty rear view mirror, washed up for the event!
Pete's 2000 ES. Shining bright with new front end and freshly Meguiar'ed paint!
Kory's 2001 MP3. WOW!!! Already modded and really glass-like paint. Pride in ownership really shows here! Color accented engine bay.
Conrad's 2002 Red P5. Possibly the most modified. Rims, clear side markers, MP5 badges like the MP3, 2.5" lowered, soundsystem galore, interior dyed similar to MP3, and on and on and on...
Alan's 2002 Yellow P5. Nice Magnetic bra and Weatherflectors. Newest Pro at the meet at 1 month old!
Carl's 2002 Black P5. Beautiful Black paint. (Didn't get to check out the mods too well on this one)
Angel's Silver P5. Mesh grills, killer sound AND Video system! Chrome alloys.
The "Tree-Cops" were out in force issuing citations to speeders (none to our group thankfully!), removing dangerous glass bottles, and talking to skating girls! They even arrested someone right across from us!
Pete's wife Angie and daughter Jillian were both in attendance. Jillian best quote "Daddy...all the cars are so much alike! Just like in the Zoom Zoom commercial!!!" I especially would like to thank Angie for being such a good sport. She's not into the whole car thing, but she know how much I enjoy it and stuck it out the whole picnic, even being 7 months pregnant!
There was also an abundance of "Mariachi-type" music. And if I ever hear an Ice Cream truck play that G.D. "Boom Boom ain't it great to be crazy" song again, for nearly 25 minutes just by our meet...I'm going nuts!!!
Don't miss the pic of the TexMex Ricemobile. It's a hoot!
Next up for the Chicago owners is a scheduled drive or maybe a dedicated auto-cross outing? Time will tell!
All in all the day was great, the weather warm and sunny, and plenty of food and beverages for all.
Thanks to those who attended! I had a great time!
Regards,
Pete
