Pulled this off of Facebook.
Saturday, October 12, 2013 – Saturday Morning Cruise-in (formerly Coffee & Rides) ... the Saturday morning cruise-in is happening at Lowes @ the RIM from 8:30 – 10:30 am.

Also, just found out that the meet at Castroville tonight charges $2, unless you are just there to look, then I think those folks park in the grassy area.

I'm going to scratch, don't know about other parts of San Antonio but its raining over on the west side near Alamo Ranch already so don't know what to expect the rest of the night. Probably just scattered showers here and there but not worth my time tonight. Maybe the morning cruise in tomorrow morning if it clears up in the morning.

Pimpin-TL Got a Question.

Mine did it as well. If you actually power off the controller it lost it's memory. But if you leave it on and turn the car off it didn't lose the memory. Weird but when I researched a while back online it seems to be normal.

Thanks good to know. I wasn't sure if I wired something wrong. It works just like you explained as long as I don't shut it off, all memory settings stay. Thanks!

I didn't get my tires stretch here but I would call around to different discount tires to see if they can do it. I saw a few done when I was working there. How wide are the wheels and what size tires?
