Rigoherra...this IS Houston...EVERYTHING is a drive. You have an RX8 after all, which I find works best when turned on and moving...fast or not-so-fast...

My "Sally" hit 76,000 miles last week...

My daughter has been having surgeries/chemo/radiation since the summer, which has kept me from attending the Houston meets. I am hopeful that once they do the last chemo and internal radiation the week after Christmas she will be cancer-free and we can all get back to what we used to call "normal." I am going to her house Sunday to HELP her hang Christmas lights on the roof. (She's so independent!) I may try to hit Bear Creek park before going to her place though. I tried to make the meet in West Houston. Living in Katy for the past 20+ years, I thought I could make it...but her schedule dictated otherwise.

Hope to meet some of you soon!

Hi! I've been lurking on the forums for a while now and I saw this thread and decided to register and post. I live in Houston and I would like to make the meet. Is it available for anyone to go (provided they donate)?

From what he posted, it looks like anyone can show up. I'm sure there will be an rx8 meet pretty quick after Christmas and there is an rx7 meet a couple threads away from this one that is happening next week.
