DFW/Texas End of Winter Meet 2013 at Texas Motorspeedway
 
Import Alliance is coming up pretty soon! Would you guys be interested in showing up together? Parking together as a group? Starts at 9am on Feb. 24, but it's best to show up about two hours early just so larger section of parking are open. What do you all think? Tickets are only 10 bucks!

details here

Want to bring BRZ, but also want to bring race car... such a dilemma. First world problems are the worst.

Nearby is a Starbucks off of HWY 114 about 10 mins away with good parking, was thinking it be a nice place for us to meet up and grab a cup :thumbsup:

I'll be going and down to park as a group. I'll be in Dallas the whole weekend.

5hairpins 01-30-2013 04:26 PM

I was going to get a ticket but they only accept PayPal and I don't do PayPal as my first account was hacked years ago and I refuse to deal with them ever again.

Do we know if tickets can be bought onsite?

lopro25 01-30-2013 09:37 PM

I'll go!

ericvanderwoodsen 02-01-2013 08:00 PM

Looks like we're getting a nice group together so far.:D

5hairpins 02-18-2013 02:18 PM

Turns out I will be out of town, hope y'all have a good time!

Tvo 02-20-2013 05:42 PM

So any plans for a meetup or what not?

ericvanderwoodsen 02-20-2013 11:35 PM

Plans not set in stone but,


Meet Up Location: Starbucks lot, 1108 N Hwy 377 Roanoke, TX 76262


Date and Time: 8am-ish take your time
Take off around 9am-ish only a 10 minute drive


If we can get a roll call for people in for the meet up and another roll call for people just going to Import Alliance later would be great. So if you're showing up later maybe we can park with a space in between kind of like a saved spot for yall, just an idea. Lets here any suggestions.

As of right now I made 276 on 5lbs. But bc I am not tuned I did a pull in third gear to have less load on the motor. We also had to do it rpm by rpm to keep an eye on the AF. We only took it up to 7200rpm that's when it started to lean out.
