Default Austin GTG - Jan 10th

Rudy's Country Store & Bar Bq
Address: 7709 Ranch Road 620 N, Austin, TX 78726
Phone: (512) 250-8002

I doubt we can show up the DFW group's GTG (20+ cars) but we can try
Anyone want to host a tech session or plan a drive afterward?

Tim,

I have offered about 5 million times to have you guys over to the house any day, any time... Still stands. My garage is one GIANT tech session... You can view a fully sorted race car, every body style of 928, you can see (and smell) what a BRAND NEW 928 is like, and you can see a Euro 928 GTS...

Come on down!

Awesome!!

Tim, does this mean a gathering on the 2nd Saturday of every month???

Sha-Weet!! Might be a good monthly option for those who can't make the 1st Saturday in DFW.

James should be glad he's so far away from Oklahoma. I'd probably be sleeping in his garage snuggled up to one of those fine sharks if he wasn't so far away.

Austin is just under 6 hours from OKC via 928 GTS. Will have to take a serious look at my schedule, especially if it means an afternoon at James.

Six hours should feel like a joy ride in that Purdy Blue GTS of yours.
Come on down, I can't promise the weather will be great, but it should be better than OKC.

I'll be there. Um, at the rate I'm working on my torquetube I'll have it done just in time. Otherwise I'll be showing up in the Jeep. I'm also down for dropping by James's place. it is amazing, and James is the guy who helped me get into these cars.

Okay DFW gang; what about a road trip down to Austin. I'll put in for a VC day, it's far enough in advance for everyone else to plan. It's the weekend after our GTG here in DFW. The Austin guys (well some of them) come up to us, time to go down to them. Who's in?

Wow,

Amazing how much play you get when you set a date, put it out there, and call it done. I love it!!!

I'm going to try to make it as well. If I can't, I'll try to make the next one. I try to make all the DFW events and I probably end up making about every other or every 3rd event. The great thing is, it's always on the books, I always have it down, but kids, sports, etc, definatley are going to win the battle when it comes down to it. When the kids go off to school, put me down for every one baby!!!

Rudy's is a great place to have it, I know exactly where that one is. Hope to see y'all there!!!
