Tran, I've met up with forum members all over the country when I was in their area, and I didn't have my car with me. It's great fun to put a face with a screen name, shake their hand, and see their cars. I've gotten a bunch of good ideas from them too.
Consider it if you have a half hour to spare when you're here. My schedule is wide open these days due to the lousy economy, so if it's not pouring down rain, I will drive to wherever you are to meet you if you like.

Looks like we will be having thunderstorms this weekend
But again when is the weather ever predicted here correctly?
Do not think the Wings-Wheels will be doable for myself, but always up to drive and meet a beer.... I mean member ;-) and of course Randall (who I owe some decals and bolts to)
Let me know

Travis, they are getting much better at predicting weather, but their predictions are spot on within 12 hours' time and iffy any time earlier than that.
I would definitely not go to the wings and wheels thing if it's raining or looks like it's about to rain. I have the humps on the car and the top down and I'm not changing that out to drive somewhere in the pouring rain... even though I now have new tires!
(thanks again, btw)
We should plan a drive for the Saturday afterward.

I would like to be there as well but I am out if the weather doesnt change. I am in the same boat as Randall and if I cant drive with the top down I dont want to make the trip.
Hopefully we can all meet up soon.

OK now the weather looks to hold out until the afternoon. I will play it by ear but as of 8:44am today I will be going tomorrow unless I see some drastic changes in the forecast. Hope to see some Houston folks there.

97 boxster, I'm betting it will be pouring down rain at the show so I won't be going. HOWEVER, I'd love to see your car since we both have 97's. We should create our own meet and greet thing soon for Houston area boxster owners.

Sounds great. Let me know when and where and if I can make it I will be there. Saturdays are usually best for me. Even a weeknight could work.

Hmmm... alright Randall. I'll take you up on the offer. My flight arrives in Houston next Tuesday and I should be staying at either downtown or Jersey Village. PM me your number and I'll hit you up.
