View Full Version : DFW: Meet Nov 13, 7:30pm
Creto 11-11-2008, 11:58 AM As promised, we're doing a short cruise this week.
We will meet up at Culver's in Flower Mound, eat dinner, and then drive up to Frosty's Drive N in Denton for homemade rootbeer, floats and black cows (a rootbeer float heavy on the ice cream).
If you've never been to a Culver's before, they're great. As for Frosty's, it's a great little drive-in style joint with homemade root beer.
The path between the two offers a couple of nice twisty back roads (and one very sharp corner to watch out for). view map (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=2709+Flower+Mound+Rd,+Flower+Mound,+TX+75022 +(Culvers+of+Flower+Mound,+TX)&daddr=Teasley+Ln+%4033.141870,+-97.105220+to:33.176066,-97.117424+to:1002+Fort+Worth+Dr,+Denton,+TX+76205+ (Frosty+Drive+N)&hl=en&geocode=3622235274449930062,33.141870,-97.105220%3B13906551712059791851,33.194787,-97.140099&mra=dpe&mrcr=0&mrsp=2&sz=13&via=1,2&sll=33.17233,-97.110901&sspn=0.070119,0.10849&ie=UTF8&ll=33.122026,-97.099228&spn=0.280635,0.43396&z=11)

Why do you have to talk about us "fat" kids like that? That is kinda messed up bro :tear:
Creto 11-12-2008, 12:30 PM yeah! i've seen skinny kids jump on twinkies faster than fat ones!

Myardor 11-13-2008, 01:23 PM Sucks......if you are a cupcake!

Creto 11-13-2008, 04:31 PM are we still on? seems like its going to be a small group.

Riley Craven 11-13-2008, 06:28 PM Plan on being there even tho Angie and Steve are slackers....
frangmi 11-13-2008, 06:33 PM are we still on? seems like its going to be a small group.
I'm still going.
Lord ET 11-13-2008, 06:52 PM on your route...if you turn left on old alton (just before you get to teasley) you can hit up hilltop road. That's the path I take on my bike all the time. That has about 4 or 5 good turns and a fun downhill chicane. i'll try to edit your map...also it takes you right to frosty's. anybody want to text me when y'all get to 377 ft. worth drive.? 214-458-6562 (it's adam)

Lord ET 11-13-2008, 09:08 PM Sorry about that abrupt left turn and the pass, I was wanting to take a roundabout way back home and didn't want to split the group in two.
Riley Craven 11-13-2008, 11:30 PM Ah, good call, none of us were sure what was going on but it appears we made the right choice.
thejew89 11-14-2008, 12:09 AM it was still fun though. i was like turn left or go straight? AHHHHH!!!!! quick decision and i guess i made the right one. still had a blast
agcutie03 11-14-2008, 09:37 AM I'm not a slacker! That hurt man, especially after I stepped foot on a dealership lot for you, risking the swarms of sales people trying to get me into a CX-7 and leave my Chirper behind. (Shudder) Where's the loyalty??
You know I'm sad I missed it, I live for cruises!! :)
Lord ET 11-14-2008, 10:04 AM Riley you were right, i didn't upload any videos.. i got them all ready to upload and in a folder, but never actually did it. I started uploading last night, so hopefully they can be all posted by the end of today. It's not youtube so the quality isn't shitty. But that just mean it takes a while for them to upload. Also some of the HD ones don't get transcoded for a day or two, it will upload the video and transcode in low quality, medium quality, and then HD. So you can watch the video in the mean time, but it's not top notch for a couple of days.
Here's the link. I've also got a few track days on that site too.

Two plugs fouled out gas rushed into the cat filled it up , when i shifted the infamous flamed backfire occured and lit up, literally the cat converter it was glowing like a blacksmiths new sword, i will post the picture later when i get home but just my luck after having the whole front suspension / gearbox electrical motor assembly replaced this would happen.

Dude, you got some awsome video, frankly I think you got some of the best parts of that trip recorded. Thanks for posting it up! Combined with the 2 runs we did last night and the video she saw, you've helped convinced my wife that all that driving wasnt that scary :ylsuper: :D:
Lord ET 11-15-2008, 10:48 AM well i still have a few videos to upload as well. that site is just hella slow. And EATS my bandwidth, but thanks :)
Lord ET 11-15-2008, 04:22 PM Alright, all videos should be done uploading within the hour.
Uncivilizedracer 11-17-2008, 06:13 PM Bad news on the car !
