TX6G2K9, Lets have another big Texas meet! Options

[zero07]

We kinda talked about this in Austin last weekend about having our next big meet in March 09.

Id like to do a two day thing its really up to you guys, we can all decide whats best together.

Also i think Austin is a great spot for these things, the roads are just sick! I know i can speak on behalf of myself, Stephen, Ripley, Death, and Alex we had a great drive!

I'm just saying these meets are always more convenient for you South Texas guys which isn't exactly fair. I wasn't saying let's do a meet at Motorsport Ranch, there are many other places we can go.

No offense, but it's still a drive for us Houston folks. stephen_lee makes one hell of a trip from Victoria, Tx to make it to these, so if something were to go on in Dallas, it's an even longer drive for him and I don't see how that's fair for him. And hell, gas is LESS THAN $2/gallon now and it's not like we're all driving gas guzzling 6.0L V8s and what nots, so there really shouldn't be an excuse not to make the drive unless your car blows up, or something catastrophic. Again no offense. Just my $.02

Edit: Also, if the distance is a main concern for anyone, then this cruise is definitely NOT ideal for you. As soon as everyone arrives at said destination and is ready to go after having lunch, gassing up, and what not, there will be an additional 100+ miles going along the planned route. So, if the drive is of greater reason than the experience of the cruise and getting the chance to meet new people/faces, then this cruise is definitely NOT an ideal trip for you.

exactly. well said Alex.

GotToyota, everyone who has replied to this thread is willing to make the trip to Austin no matter how far it is for them to drive & the only person complaining about it is you.
You haven't driven to any of the meets we've had in Austin so no offense, but no one wants to hear your complaining.

Death & Joe & myself don't complain about having to use Premium 93 octane even when it was $4 a gallon -- we all still made the drive out.
We all go to Austin b/c we all enjoy driving as opposed to standing around in a parking lot just doing nothing but talking and staring at our cars for hours on end.

Bottom line is the meet is going to be in Austin, you either can come or plan your own thing for people in DFW that aren't going to drive down for whatever reason.

Wrd. my Eibach Pro-kit, KYB GR-2s, and ST sway bars serve no purpose if the car's just gonna sit in a parking lot for a meet, especially one like this one.
