I bought two kuhmo ecsta's for the front. I bought two new for the back about 2 months ago........It cost me $280 out the door from discount for the two tires, I got them to do down to about $110 per tire.

Mamcitas is very good Mexican as is Acapulco.

Mamacitas has some rules about group reservations so a decisions needs to be made. Acapulco is less expensive, and my other car group has eaten there.

Also we normally go to the J-O Ranch Steakhouse in Ingram (about 6 minutes from the hotel) they have great food, reasonable prices, and a semi-private area.

I really want to go but my time/budget is pretty tight.

Anyone heading out Saturday morning and is leaving/passing through Houston?

I wouldn't mind catching a ride with someone. I can help out on fuel.

waivers

VS, same as at the DRAGON, ie BOTD, we all had to sign waivers before we were allowed to "join" on the event.

I just bought a new digi that has YouTube mode. About 6 minutes or so for each video. . I ordered extra batteries and am waiting for them. (says they are in Austin as of 10-21) Have Four 4GB SDHC cards ready to go.

Just reserved my room.

HM I can pick you up if you can leave on Friday morning around 10am or so. I am taking the back roads and enjoying the ride. Plan to arrive on Friday between 2 and 5 pm

Are we doing the BBQ? So I can bring some fajitas, links etc.
