I saw you leaving just as I got there. I got to the original location at 4 PM, but no one was there so I thought it may have ended early. But we had seen some stanced cars driving on Belt Line and and drove in the direction they were coming from. Luckily, we stumbled onto the relocation. I would have snapped some photos of your Fit but I was too far, but it looked good from a distance.

Here's mine at the Meet:


I probably should have had you lower my car on Friday instead of breaking my wheel stud and stopping.

Thanks Joel, you would know, you sold them to me lol. So in a way, you were there with us, too.

Lol, my Fit is like a Frankenstein of FitFreak.net members' cars. I got my wheels new, but only with funds from selling my OEMs to Bakedcookies, my T1R exhaust from Lust, my tails from you, and I still have RSR springs from Fallen Rock sitting in my garage. I've saved so much money.

Lol, it's best way to ball! Things worked out better than I hoped and luckily I got most of the things I wanted at used prices. I still have a few items left on my wishlist, but they are mostly minor items like floor mats, emblems, LEDs, misc. I want to retrofit my headlights and that is most likely going to cost me full price for mini D2s. I'm also on the lookout for a JDP diffuser, but no one wants to give theirs up for some reason . I hear it's like $250 + shipping from JDP.

That rootbeer s2k is a chick car. She's brother of the Red Swang and Bang 350z. Those are the locals lol.

I heard on the news that highways in remote parts of the state will now have a maximum speed limit of 85MPH.... I guess they decided that since everyone drives 90MPH they'd go ahead and up the limit.

Some highways are already 80mph, its not like a big deal to raise it 85mph. Its not going to be on most highways we use anyways.

It certainly isn't going to affect the way I drive in this area... Driving bumper to bumper at 90 MPH on LBJ has been a common practice for over 30 years, even when the national speed limit was 55 MPH.

It's 92 degrees here so I have been running the A/C quite a bit this month... It snowed here last April.
