No organized 86 meet at the Houston Coffee & Cars this month...which was a shame. I did meet and talk with a young couple who were looking for a track car and had the FRS as one of their choices. Let them know my experience with the car and showed it to them. Event wise it was a really good turnout by Ferrari of Houston and some others. Gallery of some shots I took below:

I'm looking for a reputable tuner in the area that will tune more that idle and WOT. Anyone know of anyone local with FT86 experience?

inline racing, d3pe, possibly jtran too. I'd recommend d3pe out of all of them though. Inline has a decent kit, but it isn't as reliable as people think. nobody talks about that though. d3pe takes pride in their quality work, but they might be a little pricey

Thanks, already a member. I never see anyone post any thing about autox meet ups, usually just track meets.

New member. 2014 Monogram. Have already met two FR-S owners and look forward to meeting others. Love my car and enjoy talking to others who appreciate the FRS.
