Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
you send me a PM saying i'm stalking you because i post in some of your useless threads, and you come post on MY regional board, for our biggest event in a while, and making a sarcastic remark? and i send u a civilized reply, and have since NOT even looked at your "threads" so i wont get accused of being a "Stalker" when i'm answering your ?'s. wow. don't clutter our thread, ESC can you delete this post and the one above me? this guy is a tool and this thread is NOT the place for his bs. oh and now he's gonna call me a "wanna be mod" for saying that.
I'm looking forward to this meet, has anyone done a rough count of how many ppl are committed so far?

In some of my threads... how about every thread I post in or start, you just show up and start spamming? It gets old man. I post some stupid stuff, but if it makes people laugh, then so be it. I try to be serious on TGO, but then there's people like you who make it impossible to be.
The reason I am on this thread is because I occasionally spend summers in you guessed it... TEXAS! So I guess it's both of our boards now. God... I really am glad you're not a mod.
I might be interested in those brakes and rear end. What do you want for them...
Now... stop adding to the spam problem, I'd actually like to see if I can make a meet in Texas. You might have a commiter right here. I'm going to be in Houston for a couple weeks. I'll be sure to take Rallie with me.
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
i just counted, ~26~ have committed/semi committed in this thread, i know there will be more that don't post here hopefully, and we a few months to go we should have a good turnout!
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
I'm in. Maybe I can get my dads Iroc-z and my rs together for the event.

Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
I'm expecting at least 30 plus cars, but, if we have in the 40 - 50 range, I wouldn't be surprised!
This means, you guys/gals need to wrap up projects and get them together by July. There's plenty of time to do so. That's why I started this thread so early.......
When we start to get closer, I'll be pushing to a few more people to attend that don't normally check the boards.
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
sounds great.

Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
Is Neil's car the one with the LSX motor and widened rear quarter panels? I would love to see his car in person. And it's confirmed, i got a day off on that saturday so i will definitely be coming. Hopefully i will have my project finished by then so i can actually bring my thirdgen
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
I will be there unless I happen to be in South America on a business trip. I just have to be careful since I took the insurance off the car and let the registration expire. I will get the registration renewed I guess. Just haven't been driving the car except around the block now and then. Will do me good to get out with it.
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
Im in and I will try to get my brother to bring his 92 firebird.

If others are trailering in their cars, I may do that as well. It's the weekend before a race, so I'll have to see how much procrastinating I can afford to do.
I really want to see Neils car.
Mike, just a suggestion, you may want to edit your first post to keep all the current info (dates etc) in one easy to find spot.
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
Alright, starting on the new motor swap TODAY in the 86 TA, this is the car we have had the longest, so it is past due for it to get a new motor and my wife is ready
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
Well BLAST! Just got the new motor in the 86 TA and went to the exhaust shop just to hear a knocking noise in the new motor. Think a rod cap backed off. SH!T....i did not build this short block but evidently i should have....
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
Sweeeet, Finally I found some Third Gen people in my area. Hopefully I can get my 91 Formula running by then and get there. Won't be the best looking car but it will be there!

I live in Tomball as well, didn't think there were any Third gen'ers out there. All I ever see are mustangs and rice burners, Nice to know I have back-up so close Ike really put me behind on my bird but I think I'm back on track now, Thanks to this site and all the members support
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
I will be there. Dont think i will have my car as i pulled the POS motor yesterday. Bought the car in March. Tearing her down. Dont think she will be running by then but I will be there.
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
We have a problem.
I just got word that all the pavilions are booked up for all the Saturdays through August.
Pavillions 4, 7, and 8 are avaulable on SUNDAY the 26. I tenatively reserved #4 for Sunday, but will have to get them some money by Wednesday if that is what we want to do.
Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
It's $125. But that isn't a big deal.
We could do it at some random place in the park. There are lots of picnic tables and BBQ pits. We could even camp out right in front of pavillion #1. There are a couple of picnic tables and a BBQ right there.

Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!

Re: Official Summer 2009 Houston Area Thirdgen Gathering: Post here!
I say keep it same day same place, we'll just show up and crash someones party or find some empty place to have it inside the park somewhere. If we have to move over a bit, so what!
