>So all toyotas are welcome to this - Not just Celicas?
At the weekly meet here in Austin there is usually 3-6 MR2s, several Supras, who all do you guys want to include/invite?
as long as the people are cool, friendly, respectful & know how to handle themselves on the roads ... i.e. not going 100+mph passing 10+ cars at once on a blind turn etc ...
then they are more than welcome to come.
any MKI's or are they all MKII MR2's?
would it be cool with everyone if we move the meet back 1 week & shoot for Saturday June 13th?
it would be a lot better for us all the way around.
please post your thoughts everyone.
They're all older guys. At the meets it's segregated...the young burnout king idiots and the older guys standing around.
All of the MR2 guys I've met down here are older and laid back. I don't think it would be a problem but that's if you guys want all kinds of toyotas and not just celicas.
I've seen a couple of MK1s around town but at the meets it's been mostly MK2s. I think I saw maybe one MK1.
I'm good on moving the date back also, it's perfectly fine for me either way.
sounds fine to me then. we're open to all toyotas & since MKII's share the 3sgte & 5sfe it's a nice connection to the Celica.
ok then, let's make the meet officially on Saturday the 13th of June.
Joe's gonna ask for the time off
and Vadar is starting to shape up nicely
Hendrix says he's going to try to make it in the Alltrac, if not he's coming in his Mitsu VR4, so 1 more to add to the list from DFW

I think I may actually make this one! Is the set date June 6-7?
Erich
I'm down to move it back too.
Mixmaster - please bring anyone who owns a Toyota/Lexus/Scion who is cool man - we love them all.
Badkarma - looks to me like it is moving back to the 13th.
If everyone is cool with that date then LMK and I'll change the topic title to match.

Death, if you could please officially change the date to the 13/14th that would be awesome
Joe's asking for the time off now actually & should get it approved.
we'll be able to work on Vadar all day tommorrow ... he's really starting to shape up now
can't wait to drive him again!!!

ah if it's on the 13th i can't make it Texas Showdown (a HUGE houston/texas car/truck show is on the 13th and the 14th) sorry guys
Holy S, how long do you guys plan on cruising around?
That is some serious mileage lol
You could also add in nameless road to 1431, and hairy man road ...
Is this just a 1 day meet?
Stephen - thanks so much for posting the maps - you rock!
MixMaster - we did the 1st map last time around up to Marble Falls w/the supra guys & it was nice except for them wanting to pass unsafely & general disrespect of other drivers on the road.
this time around since we didn't have enough time to do it before we all wanted to do the 2nd map route for our cruise here:
most all of us do a lot of driving to get to Austin & it's flat where we live so we try to make the most of the roads while we are there.
for most of us, it will be a 1 day meet - some people may stay & make it a 2 day thing where Sunday would be less structured due to less cars etc.
please post maps of the other routes - nameless road to 1431, and hairy man road - i don't think we're familiar with them.

No problem! and like i said, sorry about the low quality. A lot of detail was lost in the PDF-JPEG conversion.
Maybe(if i can remember && have time) i can print up some nice color copies of the maps for us at work
I love being a copier/computer tech at this place. i get access to some beastly color printers/copiers and such

Ok, so you guys aren't going 1431 again out to Marble Falls? If not then Nameless road is too far North and a waste of time, same with Hairy Man. If you're staying more South and Central then there are plenty of roads and you can see them all in a few hours.
What about Lime Creek? Are you guys including that?
Those maps won't pull up for me but I made a route in Google Maps you guys can check out and cross reference.
I'll be there and will get the count on MR2s this week also.
Map on it's way...
This post has been edited by MixMaster: May 28, 2009 - 9:34 AM
Here's the link to a map that shows most of the good driving roads, sight seeing etc. around Austin.
Roads included:
Spicewood Springs - covered tree road, streams, dips, turns
FM 2222, Mt. Bonnell, Plaza on the Lake (place to take pics by the 360 bridge), City Park Road, RR 620 crossover Mansfield Dam, hwy 71, Bee Caves Rd, Wetlake Dr., Lake Austin Dr., Town Lake (bat) bridge, end Downtown Austin.
There are tons of restaurants, few park stops, gas stations etc.....
Just some suggestions for you organizers. There's no Lime Creek on here although it's very close and would be easy to hit also. Hairy Man and Nameless are too far North.
http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&i...439453&z=11Outside of these you can go further South from Austin and hit RR 12 and RR 32...Devils Backbone to fredericksburg and Blanco.
Looking forward to it! Hope the car holds up!! lol
Joe got the time off from work & Vadar is close to running again.
Death - where & what time are we meeting up?
what route(s) are we planning on doing?

Guys don't leave this up to me as I'm the most flexible - I can be there at whatever time/wherever. I say we meet up at that bridge again if it's close to start of the route.
Mixmaster - can you help us out with this? You are local so you know the best places.
Ripley - you were the one with a certain route you wanna run - I trust your judgement
Alex - you know damn good and well i wouldn't leave you out. Worse comes to worse crash in my backseat till we get there and ride with someone with a front seat open once we get there [only cause I know it'll be cramped back there - otherwise you cna ride with me till whenever]

Mixmaster & myself are coming up with a place to meet near the route & a schedule w/times as well.
I'm working hard on getting this all locked in so there's no confusion & as little disorganization as possible.
I'll post back up with info as it gets worked out this weekend.
Please bear with me as I have lots going on here but I will get this all worked out.
