Thanks Steven. I think we'll be better off though making it Friday afternoon and going to Baytown. At least that was my original idea anyway.

Let me put it this way. I'm going to Baytown Friday night. Anyone else that wants to come, awesome

I'll still try to make it.Wanted to get the 383 done before I run, but i guess this will give me a chance to see what the mostly stock tpi will do.

Yeah I didn't know that when I first suggested it, I thought Wolf Creek was right outside of the Beltway. I'll look around and see what I can find

tamatt27

Both of those parks look good. One suggestion, take down the maps at the top! might be scaring some people off because they think its so far away. I would think Roseland park would be the best, looks like its the cheapest. I'll see if I can find some park maps or something and see which looks the best from there. Nice work Steven, thanks.

Having been heavily involved in organizing the last 2 meets, I know what U are going through. Lot of time consuming details HUH?

This time I'm just gonna be one of the attendees/supporters. If this is what U come up with, I'm sure it will be fine with me. Just let me know when where, and I'll be there.

Be sure and do a thread for a "show of hands" of who will be attending, so U can do a who's bring food and how much thread, so there is enough. for anybody that shows up. Be sure and double check with HRP for that date that they are open and running and not having a "special" show that would prevent us from being able to make some passes. Also, if HRP is running their normal Sat night show--IE bracket racing--see what time that starts so anybody that wants to run brackets as well as match/grudge races may do so.

If this is gonna be our offical, "go all out" Winter gathering meet, then a flyer that could be downloaded and handed out to any and all 3rd gens that we see around town, would definately be advised and appreciated!

Is this going to be the official annual December gathering?

TexasLT1

Craig, this one is going to be on Friday evening so that we can get to Street Night at HRP. Saturday night is the bracket racing and stuff. Also, I just double checked the HRP calender, it will be open that night.

Mike, no this isn't the Winter gathering as far as I know. I posted a while back that this is the only weekend I'll be home between now and Christmas and asked if anyone wanted to go to HRP. It has kinda grown into a mini gathering.




Since Mike brought it up though, maybe we could make this the big winter one? My only concern is that with it on Friday night, if anyone has to work (even though it is the day after Thanksgiving, it shouldn't be a problem, but still) they won't be able to make it to the gathering itself.

Zap Racing

I'm good either way!

I'm there!

I just hope I get my 700R4 trans modified by then so it will make the 3/4 shift at WOT. I've got the part ordered and it's supposed to be a 5 min job (yeah right!) by dropping the pan not the valve body and changing out a plunger, so it will 3/4 at WOT and not downshift at WOT anymore. If not I won't be able to make any 1/4' passes, but I WILL BE THERE!!!

Not going to be able to make Nov.26th.

However, do you guys want me to start the Annual December gathering thread?

StevenK

TexasLT1

If you want to wait till Sunday to decide, my parents are going to run by both parks and take pictures for me (since I'm in Colorado). I think if we wait till then, we can make a better decision, although it won't really make that much a difference, they're only a couple miles apart from each other. I think we can go ahead and start the food thread and get working on that. Also, times look good to me.

Sounds cool, I will try to make it out there.

TexasLT1

Sweet deal, always good to see new faces out there.

tamatt27

I'm back in H-Town guys till December, so if ya'll need anything run up to Austin to Steven or whatever, I go home every weekend. I'll help out with planning or whatever if ya'll need anything....my internet should be un-ghey-ified by then.

rudyt5000

hello yall im RUdy ....well i live in Seabrook ...and if yall interested in using Clearlake park i live like a minute down da road its a nice park ...and i also work at a place that can arrange so food and drinks if enough people come...At Seabrook Beach Club ...3 minutes down da road .....if interested yall let me know

TexasLT1

Rudy, thanks for the offer, but I think we decided to go with a park thats closer to the track. Clear Lake Park is just a little too far south I think for most people. Perfect for me, but I don't think anyone else wants to do that much driving.

rudyt5000

so what park & time is it gonna be held at ...i wanna show up...if i can get my car's broken thermostat bolt out.... .....any other 3 rd gen owners around seabrook that gather around let me know ...i need some cruisin buddies

TexasLT1

Pretty sure its going to be Roseland Park in Baytown sometime around noon.

StevenK

iTrader: (1)

Okay, original post is updated, and final.

Please remove any non-related links or maps so we don't confuse people.

TexasLT1

Also, to get to the park, easiest way is going to be to take I-10 East till you get to Highway 146 to Baytown, go south on 146 and go pretty much back the opposite way shown on the map from the park to the track.

Added a flyer on the web, and a printable word version as well. If you need it in another format let me know.

max bob

Just got the car back on the road. I should be there before 5:00 for the cruse to the track.:yes: :yes:

tamatt27

It's getting near that time guys! Ya'll ready to run?
I got the LT1 fired up a few days ago..I'm hoping for a test drive this weekend. Kitt should be there with ***** on!

RSpeed

I'm still gonna try to make it. Since I wrecked it, my idle has been high it drinks gas like a friggin jet now. I haven't been able to find the cause yet. If I fix it before then, I'll be there.

TexasLT1

looks like we're going to have a great turnout for this little meet. We just need to get a few more people to bring some food stuff. Anything you can bring would be helpful.

tamatt27

Sweet man. Hope you can make it! I'm looking forward to a cruise down there myself...I'm hoping Steven's gonna come too! He doesn't know what to do now that he's got the 4.10's

Zap Racing

Any idea of how many are gonna show, so we know if we have enough munchies?

Craig

tamatt27

i just started a thread for The Official Headcount for Nov 26... post to confirm or deny.

TexasLT1

Thanks Matt.

FbodTrek

Didn't he have 3.73's ? Ask him if he wants to sell the rear....

StevenK

iTrader: (1)

You really don't want drum breaks, plus 3rd gen rears are weak.

If you really want it, you have to ask walter, I gave it to him cause he helped me install the new rear.

tamatt27

And he had like 3.23s or something like that. I had no problem with drum brakes I'm only stepping up to disks because scott's 3.45s come with upgraded disks
