I have a spot open in my hotel room if anyone wants to split the cost. Chris (El Chili) was splitting the room with me. So if anyone needs a room and willing to split it, let me know. It's at the hotel above I posted.

Feb 17 Forecast Is For Rain!!!

The weather forecast is for rain on the 17th, 60% of rain showers that Friday and Saturday. See the 10day forecast here http://www.weather.com/weather/tenda...nav_undeclared

Lets watch the weather over this weekend and make the call on Monday to postpone.

I know how difficult it is to plan for an event when we keep postponing. It just doesn't make sense to kill ourselves to go on a drive when its just going to be raining.

And I understand its a pain in the butt to keep booking and canceling hotels to do this.

This year's weather has turned out to be a curse and is something we can't control. We went through all last year with a drought and now when we want to do this meet the weather has just not cooperated.

Let me personally apologize in advance and I hope this doesn't discourage people from making this event happen.

Im with you on this Mark. I dont want to drive the hill country in the rain.

But for the rest of you, I will be going that weekend regardless. My wife is running a marathon for "Team in Training" for the leukemia society. If the rain doesnt let up and any of you still decide to go I will be more than happy to meet you all out for lunch .

ice/snow is understandable, but please don't let a little rain in the forecast cause another postponement. that would be quite sad tbh

These weather guys don't know. They spoke of this epic freeze about a week ago and it ended up being 65 degrees. Currently this is the weather.com forecast.
Partly Cloudy 68° 20% rain
They will change this forecast about 8 more times. If you want perfect weather for this, WAIT TILL SUMMER. This is spring...it rains.

Either way, whenever this does happen I'm ready and hope we have a great turnout!

I will probably go no matter what, because if it got rescheduled I won't make the next one I hate to say. When I am on call 24x7 I can't keep telling my work that I will be out of town this weekend then I don't go.

So Ethan, be ready to party with me either way!

Thank you PimpnTL for monitoring this!

Like I had stated above, we'll monitor this through the weekend. I certainly don't want to postpone again. I want this event to happen just as much as the next guy but it doesn't make sense to have an event that the conditions are rainy (or frozen in the extreme case we had before).

Also note that when it rained last time there was a lot of flooding that occurred as well.

I drive my car in the rain, so there is no personal issue with rain. But ask yourself when was the last time you wanted to go on a drive for fun on your own and it was raining. Not my idea of fun, and more so with 20 or more cars.

I'm looking forward to the 17th and lets pray that the weather holds!

The weather guys in Austin are HORRIBLE. They blow almost every forcast, constantly. They called for rain all this week off and on, and it hasnt rained ONCE. Its currently cold, but sunshine all around. All the other Austinites I am sure will agree that prediction of rain or shine, all should come...the rain forcasts for the city never really make it to the hill country.

Yeah, me too. I'm still not sure if I can go though. I'll find out sometime early this week.

BTW, you might want to check the weather for this week before you do any major detailing, or keep you car in a garage. I think it's supposed to rain mid-week. You don't want to detail your car and then have it rain on you. Just thought I'd be

Well crap-looks like I will be Viperless this weekend. I'm having tranny issues and it is currently under the knife.

The good news is I think that I will have to play with the S2k instead
