"North" Houston Mini-Meet 10/18

What:
A mini-car meet for all sports car lovers. Nothing but just hanging out and talking about whatever. A great way to meet some local owners, get some car tips, or just hear some good stories.

Who:
Mostly Rotorheads and Rotards, but anyone is welcome. As long as you're intellignet enough to realize that the Fast & Furious movies are not a good tool to learn more about cars, you're cool with us.

Where:
I-45 & FM-1960
There's a huge parking lot located behind the Hooters on the NorthWest corner of the intersection. The 4 or 5 RX-8s parked in the back of the lot surounded by nothingness is us.
Map

When:
Thursday, October 18th @ 7:00 PM

Is this really your first meet? I thought I had met you before...




EDIT:
Nevermind - I looked over the old posts, I remember you now.
It'll be nice to see some of the not-so-regulars again

I kind of have a problem... It would be awesome if one of you guys could spare your coils just for the time of that meet because I think mine are going out at 63,000 miles....

I'm going to switch it up from now on. There doesn't seem to be a consistant day of the week that works for everyone, so I'm going to try to mix it up a bit from now on. Honestly, today would have worked better for me this week, but that would have only given 24 hours to sign up and make it out, which didn't seem like a good idea...

I'm also going to start scouting out other locations to make the drives a little more bearable for some. I'll try to keep us away from popular "import" meet locations


Cast your vote now for next week. Which days work for who?

Looks that way...

How long will it take you to get to the meet? Aren't you coming from the other end of town?

i would attend, but it looks like its gonna be another weak turn-out. Having 2 cars at a meet is kinda boring so if anyone else makes it out there ill go as well

I'm showing. I'll have new coils and wires. Also shaved all my emblems off, and got some new plugs. +springs, that's the main reason I want too go. I'd like too see how they fair side too side. And I also changed my lights from 10,000K too 8,000K. Hopefully I'll have the bulbs in by tomorrow

edit: changed the front pads, front passenger side wheel hub, and my clutch master cylinder!
