wassup DFW.

a few of us from Houston are thinking about a texas meet this spring break, some where in Austin. u guys down for it?

thats enough time notice for everyone to get ready.

i haven't posted in austin/SA threads yet.

there are atleast 28 members that are in Houston Social Group.
hopefully atleast half of us will show up.

this was our last BBQ meet. A lot of members were busy so there were only 8-9 of us.







last summer

Austin meet depends on when during the spring. Set a date first and I'll try to work around that.

We usually do Austin twice a year. Last fall it didnt happen, I would be up for a spring meet.....it all depends on the schedule.

I would say come up with a date and stick to it. If we cant go then we cant go, but dont try to facilitate everyone. Its not possible.

spring break is b/w 03/14 (sat) - 03/22 (sat)
so it'll be either 03/14-15 or 03/21-22

Well, trance, disgruntled, G$, maybe Annie, maybe Ruf, and Chris.

Let's do this!
I will plan for 10-15 and if we get more we can figure out what other goodies to add.

Hopefully this turns out well and we can get some of the OG DFW crew together as well as some of the newer faces.

Game on!!

So here is what you will be missing
Menu looks like
smoked/grilled spareribs
wings
grilled veggies
hors d'oeuvres
bite size dessert (lemon/lime pound cake and cheesecake are the thoughts for the moment)

It will be good to see you again. There are some nice back roads around here.
I will take you up on that when I have an S2K in the 3rd garage bay.

Hey guys, I have a question for tolltag users.

Do I have to attach this to my windshield or can I just hold it up to my window when I want to use it?

I can feel the chip in the sticker, can I just cut around it and attach a smaller area??

Has anyone down this?

It sounds like it's similar to the Harris County one that I had. It's also a sticker with the chip in it. You're supposed to stick it on and leave it on. If you remove it once it's been stuck on, it deactivates the tag and you will have to buy another one. It's 15 bucks to get another one here. I did this and I haven't purchased another tag. Still, I can drive through and when it takes the picture, it just charges it to my account. Only bad thing is that the tolls with the arms won't raise.

That makes sense, but will it work if I never attach it? I want to just press it up against the glass. I don't think that will work, or will it??

Awesome.

E$ and Jordan,

Do you think we can do some action shots out the back of the Odyssey?

That would be a great capper to the day. Looks like we might have a really nice turnout.

I would be honored to hang out the back of your Odessey.

Someone needs to drive my car though. I need some motion shots of it.

I got you covered on that one. I got motion shots of mine last time.

I heard the MX5 is a beast trying to break the back end loose, but i will overcome and get you the action shot-right before a tree intervenes

Seriously, you shoot and I'll drive.

You got it ma-man!

Its a weee bit tail happy now. The new sway bars are thicker than Jack's bean stalk. With the 245's on it, theres no way its loosing traction. Let me put it this way, the meat on your face will lose grip before the car does.

I'm ready to go back to Austin and hang out with you guys. Unfortunately, it's too soon for me. When is the next "Big Texas Meet"? A couple of us Houston guys have been talking about going to the next one. I've already upgraded my brakes, so no more loosing ya'll on the country run.

Around spring brake would be nice. I start my vacation the last weekend of March. That would be a cool way to start my vacation.
