Bring 'em but not sure the timing and if we actually get to it. You may be provided some advice on DIY.

You guys see this?

check your tires!

Something to keep in mind when you buy your next set of tires.

Yup, tires also have a heat cycle limit. For instance, the tires on my V are really only good for about 10 heat cycles-or, in track terms, one weekend! Yes, they will still have plenty of tread left, but they will just not have the adhession that new tires have.

Ready to eat at the DFW AZ meet?

Carnitas smell awesome and the chicken is smoking now.

I have more chicken and veggies to grill when you guys get here.

Looking forward to seeing you all.

Did 2 trays of the symphony brownies so everyone gets their sugar fix.

Any time you guys wanna head over, come on. the smoked meat will be done about 11:00.

Man, wish I could make it. But I'm over here at the shop having my car repainted again. I didn't like the way it turned out last weekend. Came out too grayish for me. This time I'm just having them stick with black. Enjoy the food fellas. I'm sure I'll get a weekend to myself and finally meet up with you fellas.

Thanks to all who came over. Next time I will go with more appetizer/bar size food per the suggestion of the better half. Instead of a half chicken I will smoke buffalo wing size pieces .

It was great to meet some new people-Sam and Harry.
Also good to see the crew from DFW and Austin in the hizzzouse.

The September drive looks great.

Thanks to all who brought the DFW meet together.

Time for another soon...

Thanks to the ladies for attending, it makes the rest of us look much better.

BTW, does anyone know the driver of a '01-'02 ABP CL-S?? I think it's a '01-'02, but can't tell because the taillights are solid black. It looks like the headlights and the rims are also totally blacked out. He was on I-30 do I couldn't tell if the were stock.
Does anyone know him?
