***** Always check the first post for updates in this thread.

Date: April 24th Sat
Location: Kemah (Super Target/Chik-Fil-A off of Marina Bay Dr and US146 --> See link below)
Time: 5pm till whenever

Be sure to get there on time if you want to line them up together. Chik-fil-a hosts this gathering and it is open to anyone. So expect all different kinds of cars to see out there. The last time I was out there, it was mostly domestic cars - old and new.

I'd be down for Otto's again or or a Frankensteins meet. But whatever yall wanna do is fine by me. OR:

We could do Kemah, just show up before all the other cars do to make sure we all get parking together. There's been a really good turn out the last few weeks.

Well I dont know if this would be completely out of the question. If yall want to ride, TPE is having a cruise set up for the Saturday after the 24th on May 1st. I know some one has suggested we tag along for one these as a monthly meet. What yall think? Maybe even Kemah afterwards since it would be on the way back in town.
here's the thread from TPE: Click Here (http://texasperformanceevents.com/showthread.php?t=2367)

here's the info copied from TPE:

"OK folks, the next cruise is set for Saturday, May 1st. The weather should be perfect for a beachside run.

PLEASE BRING 2WAY RADIOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Contact - Matt 832-343-1586

Meet- HEB off FM518/288S in Pearland by the gas pumps

Time - 945am to leave at 1015am sharp!

Route - 288S to Blue Water Highway in Surfside going east to Galveston.

Lunch - Nates West End in Jamaica Beach

Pictures - San Luis Pass Area, and Cherry Point in Galveston (cruise will officially end here around 4pmish...some may choose to hit the car show that evening off NASA Rd 1 and 45S.)"

Was out at the Kemah meet tonight and they had an awesome turnout..... The Mopar guys had a big meet out there. I think I counted like 35-40 Chargers, Challengers, Magnums, Jeep SRT8's out there. it'd be nice if we could get a turn out like that next week. So lets see how many we can get out there!!

Come on out! Always nice to meet new faces. We're gonna meet out there at 5, so we can all park together as a group before all the hot rodders and other cars get out there. Home Depot/Chic Fil A parking lot. Hope to see you out.

The change I made that I was teasing Dan about was I had my engine cover painted to match the car. I'm apparently the second guy in these parts to have a painted engine cover.
