It looks like Texas A&M is having their first 2009 AX on 2/8. Anyone up for meeting at the McDonalds in Hearne at 7 AM?
If you have not previously gone to a TAMSCC event, then make sure you print and complete one of the insurance forms.
More info here: http://www.tamscc.org/forum/index.php?doc=aboutautox
Perhaps we can stop at the Elite Circle Grille (http://elitecirclegrille.com/) on the way home, as usual.
Lee and I are going to be staying in College Station the night before. Let me know if anyone else will be doing the same and we can meet up for dinner.Quote:

That sounds like fun! I've even got a buddy I can stay with in Snook! :D
(Just sent him the obligatory email...)
Ahhhh, Snook... I'm going there this weekend to hit Sodolak's Country Inn. Chicken Fried Bacon appetizer and the 16 oz extra small siroin for dinner. Check it out on Texas country reporter....Quote:

Sounds like it would be fun (and I could hit Sodolaks for a second weekend in a row) I've only AX'd at Pennington a few times, how does this venue compare? On Sunday the first car out is at 10:30 and the gates close at 2:00. I'm sure it largely depends on how many drivers show up but any idea about how many runs each driver would get? How is this venue for tire wear? i.e. if I've got about 1/2 thread left will I be good for both days (and the return trip home)?
This will be much bigger than Pennington, but I think it might take them a few events for them to get used to mapping a course for the additional area they have added. You can see the old area versus the new area in the thread.Quote:

I've heard of it but I've never been there - yum!Quote:

Since I'm too lazy right now to sign on the TAMSCC forum right now :rolleyes:, where's the event? Riverside Annex?
Yes.Quote:

Since Thomas is only there for Saturday, then I'll take a co-driver for Sunday, if you're interested. You just have to promise not to beat me. ;)Quote:

Hrmm, if someone is headed down there Sunday that I could hitch a ride with I would probably jump on that.Quote:
