I'm actually in town for my younger brother's high-school graduation, but have other extended family in town.

That makes it pretty hard to get away.

I do like the location of the meet, though, it's like 5-10 minutes from where I live in BHV.

If legend makes it I want to take a look at some things But doubt I will make it.

Hopefully the turn out is higher than the last two times. I'm coming in the mini-van. Hopefully my 8 gets fixed soon.

Meet was great! I'll post pictures later but I have bad news. When I took pictures theres a spot in every picture that is a little blurry, shouldnt be a problem once i resize but turns out there was a smudge on my lens! CRAP! Anyways as for the little fun I did with Hero and Monki tonight. Message me on my aim at RowTarEEE when yall see this or something so we can talk about the results =) I notice me and Hero are dead even at the start but when we shift I'd jump ahead a bit...and Monki pwned us with his exhaust and intake!!! So those things DO work!

HAHAHA...I was surprised, that's why I wanted one more run before we all split. I was only creeping away...it seems like it makes some difference, but not a whole lot of difference. It was really fun to see the different setups run against each other. Legend, you need to get your car tuned so we can see what FI can do and don't leave before we make the run. Last night was just awesome.

Sorry that I did not make it last night. I did not get my Rx8 untill 1:30 pm today so I guess it made me a little late. If there is one nest week I will be there.

I live in southwest houston too. I'm in stafford, north of sugarland.

The mini-mini van was mine. My RX-8 is still in the shop!

It should be ready Saturday though. I was told its actually ready now but they want to let the car sit and let the adhesive bond to the glass.
