Welcome to the forums, you're welcome to join us on our next meet. Good find on the track info

I have invited the San Antonio and Houston G drivers to join us. It's kinda short notice, but well see. I don't know what they will say but I'll let you guys know ASAP. I'll talk to the Dallas Gs tomorrow morning. Perhaps we can all get together and discuss the Spring TX Meet.

We will also try to plan a Meet in other cities for those Austin members who want to caravan down to San Antonio, Houston, or Dallas in the neat future.

^They are all concrete.

To those of you who might need some work done on your car, John aka (Sir boostalot) is the man to see. We recently did some maintenance on my G. We changed the transmition and differential fluids (these were very easy), and changed the Power steering and Alternator/ Air conditioning belts (this was easy to change but a real pain to tention correctly, my suggestion would be to buy a tension gauge tool beforehand...ABOUT $60-$100).

thanks for all your help Bro When I get ready to drop my car on Tein s tech, I'll let you know. This next meets dinner for you and your wife are on me .

You're most welcome.

If anyone in the Austin area needs any mechanical work done on their G. Please feel free to contact me. I'll do most services for almost half the price of the stealership
