Just a quick update. We've got flyers made up that will be posted at the dealership; hope that will draw in the public (and other Vibe owners). I'm posting a few flyers around some of the tuner shops in Houston as well.We're still hoping to get a group discount at one of the nearby hotels...hopefully will get an answer this week.OK...now for the important stuff. First of all, where do you all want to meet for dinner after the meet? Blanco's has been mentioned several times, but which location are y'all interested in?Secondly, I'll supply drinks and snacks for our attendees ("you're welcome"), but it doesn't really cover lunch. Any ideas for that? Or do y'all want to make it "fend for yourself"?Under three weeks to go...sure hope Mother Nature figures out that summer's over by then!

I'm looking forward to it.

Quote, originally posted by NascarXprt »they will probaly look really great but you might need to go a little bigger with the size of the rim.Yeah, I agree. I stayed with 16" rims for two reasons: smoothness of ride and cost. 18" wheels added about 25% and tires another 20%.

Looking through the gallery pics - looks like you were on the way to a wicked sunburn, Zuben! Did you get any burn Nascar or yardman?I put sunscreen on, but missed some spots and didn't do the backs of my hands which somehow got burned! Don't think I've ever had that happen before. And you guys were out there longer....

I'm usually really good about sunscreening myself (w/ golf), but the weather was so nice that morning, I just forgot. Well, that, and the fact that the groundwire install took a heck of a lot longer than one hour!

[NascarXprt]

yea i got burned on the back of my neck and my ears but thats bout it.

[yardman13]

no sunburn for me
