Houston Meet?, i was thinking how over due it is. Options

[D-Man]

That first dennys that we went to... well that I went to rather (like febuaryish i think) Had a good parking lot.

Havoc, Panda, I say Ya'll drive arround looking for places with BIG parkinglots, NO cops, and SERVES alcohol

[darthripley]

the weather will be a tiny bit cooler maybe then too.
how's that sound?

Sounds good to me. Track sometime in Sept/Oct.

the MR2 (R2) has a 4agze swapped in

COMPETITION FOR ME

Prepare to be spanked - bad.

Sept/Oct will be perfect for us to drive down for a track meet

that last part made me lol

i'd go against ya D-Man in my 5sfe Camry .. i'm pretty good at launching that but i'm afraid to know how long it would take to get down the 1/4 mile track .. something like 10-15 years i think

be sure & get plenty of pics when ya'll meet up

Sweet, I'll pack us both a lunch for the strip, It may take us that long BLT or Ham sandwich?

Cool, But lets make a new thread for the Texas Track Meet, and get back to busniess on hand.

Panda, Havoc: What'dya got for us?

[Havok1997GT]

well. thats why i posted this


BBQ at a park: Everyone would have to pitch in for food(EVERYONE!)

Battleship meet then a run to Dennys: (FYI, very good place for car meets, theres a little parking lot to the side that everyone can line up and take pix, we never had a car meet but that was the old groups parkking lot back in the day.)

BBQ-ready-to-go: Me and Panda know a great place. All you can eat Ribs and they are fantastic! its in alvin though. BE a bit more of a drive fr you guys but its sooooo worth it.

We need to pick on first then i can supply a place.

[D-Man]

And thats why i posted this:

I'm digging this idea of ALL YOU CAN EAT RIBS

[02bluerolla]

ok so ........ when is this going to happen?

[D-Man]

I agree. Havok - If we're driving over to there you gotta tell us when and where cause as far as I'm concerned there's only Galveston, The Battleship, The Space Center and Ellington Field over there.
I'd be down to take real pics in front of the Battleship this time with real maps and real directions. As a matter of fact I found a different way to come back from there that would allow D-Man and the rest of us to get there in just 1/2hr vs the 45mins to an hour trip it took last time. We could then hit your Denny's or something afterwards. Just a suggestion.
Oh yeah - Furthermore I never got to see the monument and take that tour and D-man's wife never got her history lesson and my boys begged me to take them back for the monument [quite a bit different tune than Daylon, my oldest, was singing before we got there I told him that sh*t wouldn't be boring at all - how can 13"diameter guns that can shoot up to 4 miles be boring?]
Try to plan something ASAP Havok before you loose interest.

Ya know, this may not be such a bad idea after all. How much did tickets cost?

Saturday the 23rd. BattleShip followed by ALL YOU CAN EAT RIBS
Photoshoot infront of ship & monument, maybe some more in ribs' parkinglot.

Sound good to everyone?

Just newer fresher motor with better compression probably unless you got ahold of a Prism GSI [Which I used to own as a beater - great car], in which case you have a 4A-GE which would be more powerful but it's not a direct bolt in due to wiring ECU etc etc.

[D-Man]

how much did the tickets cost to the battle ship?

[DEATH]

$1 "donation" to park/car and I think it was $3/adult to get on the ship but you need not do that if you don't want to. The monument is free as well but I didn't have to "donate" to park so IDK.
Overall - it's pretty much free to the public, costs a little to do certain things I think [Ride the new elevator to the top of the monument etc.]

count me out i cant go i have to work that day

[D-Man]

What time?

[roelamizzle]

Well, I am working that day but I do pass the battleship exit on my way home so if you guys plan on being there past 6pm I can make a showing.

[DEATH]

Well with the daysleepers involved the meet won't be till afternoon and you just might be in time for Dinner? You work Sunday's?
Edit: Oh Sh*t I just noticed we never switched back to Sunday. If Sunday would allow more people like you and Bluerolla to sho then I def say we move it back a day.

[D-Man]

yeah, you'll probably be in time to make roll-out to dinner. Common buddy, you're my usual chat'n pal at meets

[kylekonvicka]

it was the 7afe until the crank blew (just like mine) but no matter what i did we (we were both stock) i was in 3rd going 75 while he was in 5th going 75 and he just took me i was so confused

[D-Man]

I second this notion.

Lets get a call of hands, Who can show Saturday, and Who can show Sunday?
