Oh. If the meet was saturday you could roll down early, my local mech could do them for $40 per wheel.

I already have the intake resonator removed. Would be kinda pointless to do a short RAM since that is basically what I have now.

Especially company paid

I will make the next one! If its a small group maybe a NFL day at my place would be cool.

My question is should I trade in the RJ wheel for work TS1? Thinking of 19 8.5 front and 19 9.5 back. The black chrome or silver finish?

Ok so I have come to understand some persons will be staying over in Austin and some wont. I have copied the latest list from the Austin Meet thread and pasted it here. Can the persons on the list specify if they are still going? And if so, state if you plan to stay over or not. Persons who want to go but have not added their names to the list as yet, please feel free to do so. As far as I know, Nauman is the only person stating an interest to stay over. Are there any particular reasons for the overnight stay? Any activities that we may miss out on?

01. nspec_ya4
02. TLDude876 -- not staying over
03. 05TLdcc
04. Ralph.
05. Houston
06. Bada$$VTEC
07. thechamp531
08. 2k2SilverTL-S
