[Snake Skin]

Happy New Year To All, I'm putting together a drive this Saturday from beltway 8 & I-10 to Bolivar to our recently finished beach house Mermaids Cove II, that we lost during hurricane IKE then late lunch at Stingaree then ferry ride to Galveston hope you can make it. Troy P.S. will be watching the weather.

[FLATOUT]

So are you guys going to have lunch on Bolivar? It's a haul from lake conroe so just trying to figure out the logistics.

Andy

[Snake Skin]

Yes we will do lunch at Stingaree Seafood Restaurant, Cindy will have App.at the beach house before lunch I know its a long haul but hope you can make it.

[FLATOUT]

No problem, even if I can't make it thanks for putting it together and congrats on getting the beach house back!

[VYPR BYT]

Being an Ohio guy, I saw this thread title and told myself to Not look... but here I am.
It's like driving by a roadkill and your eyes are drawn to it. LOL
Good luck and have fun.

[Herrsss]

Weather is looking really good for a convertible cruise - Richard's just gonna have to deal with his head above the top of my windshield :dude3:

[blk_fxstc]

Troy, we are over in Rosharon now, about 5 minutes from MSR. I changed jobs in Jan 2013 and the drive from Cypress was killing me, not Andy's beer consumption.... :D

[Herrsss]

so what's the problem with that? U afraid of a few miles on that purty blue beast???? I thought we bought these to drive :p

[Herrsss]

Anyone want to take bets on what Edgar's going to show up in this time?????

Hey man if you're picking it up Saturday afternoon you'll have to call Troy and meet up with us somewhere. Hopefully Morgan will get some heat cycles on the manifold and have everything retorqued for the road trip. Good news is I'll be out there so if you have any problems I can help diagnose it quick.

[FLATOUT]

Troy I'm a go, got the car buttoned up and fired up tonight.

Appreciate it guys, sounds like we may make a solo 'spirited' dash from Tomball to Stingaree if it is before noon when we leave Tomball. Had not thought about heat cycles on the new intake, but I assume Morgan knows to do that before I drive it 500+ miles Saturday? I'll call him in the morning. I know they are going to throw it on the dyno Friday to see what she does.

Did you have any issues with the intake loosening up?

Not really I had a vacuum tube that was causing a leak that I tightened up. I know Morgan and I were talking about it for yours (to make sure to ziptie those).

I'll give Morgan a ring tomorrow and see how it went :). If he's driving it over to the dyno though it will get a few heat cycles on it and he'll retorque it befor you pick it up.

I saw your car at Tomball this morning. The Gen V intake looks so good. Much better in person than in pictures! I see a mod in my future :). Hope to see you tomorrow on the road.

Dude I drive right by on my way to work every morning if I knew you were over there I would have stopped by and said hello :)

I'll see you guys tomorrow. I will meet up with you guys at the first stop in Houston.

[MtnBiker]

Thanks Andy. I dropped my car off to have harnesses installed. Wish I had the skills to do that myself for cryingout loud! But, I will feel safer knowing Morgan did the install :).

So thats whos black ACR was on the KP dyno...

I'll see you guys at the walmart @ 9:30am.

[Snake Skin]

Plenty of room for more and no this is not a VOA members only event, just friends with the same interest's.

Dropping my Paxton SRT Ram off to Morgan in the morning and if we get out of Tomball in time I will meet you guys at the restaurant. Figure it should be about 1.5 hours to get there straight shot depending on how quick the ferry is.

[Snake Skin]

We won't head to Stingaree until about 1:30 so if you make it before then 3016 Shady ln Port Bolivar 77560 it will be nice to see ya'll again.

[Mr. Bill]

FYI 45 south bound is closed. 8:30. Bad accident. @ 1960

[TexasTonka]

Great afternoon with a really cool group! I appreciate everyone letting us join in and tag along.

[Snake Skin]

Just want to say thanks to all of you that came out for the cruise a fun time was had by all, and we all got home safe. If you've ever put something like this together your never sure if you would be on the cruise by yourself or just a couple of cars. So thank you all for making the fun time it was. I'm just glad we never broke the speed limits it would just be wrong !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
