Speaking of which, Mr. Banana - stop with all of yer speedin'-out-o-the-lot malarky. After you left the security guard called the cops on us. You can drive a like a doofus all you want, just don't do it in our meeting zone or else we're going to have to find a new one.

KEEF:
Don't feel too bad. Here's the story exactly as it happened:

I dropped you off.
You sped off.
I took someone else for a ride.
You sped back.
I came back, gave you your phone, and took the next person out for a ride.
you sped off, again.
Cop showed up... didn't actually talk to anyone or do anything... just kinda watched.
I came back.
Cop left.
20 minutes passed.
Security guard showed up and told us to leave or she'd call the cops.
...We were confused considering the cops were just there and did nothing, so we just ignored her.
30 minutes later the meeting ended.

You didn't get us in any trouble (yet) so don't feel (too) bad. Just stop drawing so much attention to us before we **** off a REAL authority figure.


LEGEND & AHHEX8:
Did I miss something? What the hell are you guys talking about? When did anyone agree to bring cookies?
(if you're being serious, I don't like nuts )


ROTARYGOD:
We're open to any and all suggestions regarding meeting times and locations. The only reason we meet when we do is because we had seen other groups use this lot for meetings around this time without getting hassled by security/police. If you have any suggestions, our ears are open.

Ya, a month or two before we started having meets at that place, ricers of all kinds would show up and just start laying down tons of rubber on that concrete... I would always watch from a distance, and be amazed that police officers for some reason would just not show up! Thanks for clarifying on the exact situation... This Wed. we should probably contemplate a different meeting spot

Houston RX owners - Care to join us?

Post last updated: 9/11/07 14:00

Next Meeting is:
9/12/07 @ 20:00
Hooters @ 45/1960



Hey Houstonians - welcome to another annoying thread from your resident long-winded yankee.

For those of you that don't know, the guys North of Houston have been holding weekly get togethers. We've always invited all Houston RX owners, but it's always the same 4 or 5 people showing up due to other Houston owners not being available on the dates/times we've picked, or find our meeting location to be too long of a drive.

To solve this problem, we're now taking suggestions for meeting times & places. Give as much information as you want regarding your schedule, and I'll do my best to make sure I update this first post with all relevant and up-to-date information.

Times Available
Mondays

    Tuesdays

      Wednesdays

              As long as we aren't ******** about it there shouldn't be any problem with the current location. Just drive calmly when in the parking lot and the police nor security will have any grounds to remove us.


              BTW - I started a new thread where everyone can post their available dates/times as well as any other possible meeting places. Hopefully more people will start attending; I'd like to meet more of the members in person
