I drove to 620/I35, got there at 6:15, 3 Georgetown Taxis were the only cars in the lot. Still early and pleasant weather so I drove to the Oak Hill "Y" meet, got there at 6:45 and ended up staying till 8:15. Lots of interesting cars; Nissan Z w/a turboed Lexus motor and auto trans that runs 146MPH 1/4's, 2 drag cars on trailers, T-buckets, Chopped and Channelled A's, a '52 Chevy fastback on a recent Caddy frame and drivetrain, ''50 Chevy fastback 50's custom, 2 '57 TBirds, Mustangs, etc, etc, etc. Few 'Vettes; my C6, 2 C5's, 2 C2's (1 survivor and 1 restored), a C3 then a few other 'Vette drive bys that didn't stop for long.

Interesting, 620/I35 is 13 miles from my house, Oak Hill "Y" is 17 miles. I got the highest DIC mileage ever on my C6, showing 27.8 when I got home, re-set at the house when I left for 620/I35, city traffic to I35, I35 @ 70-75MPH to the 620 exit, thru the parking lot then back to I35, to 183, to Mopac, to 290/71 @ 70-75MPH and then to the Oak hill meet, back to 290/71, to Mopac, to 183, to Ohlen Rd exit and home for a total of 61 miles @ 27.8 MPG. I'm impressed with the mileage, that's the longest hiway drive since I got the car in April. maybe the guys claiming 29-30 MPG Highway are right?

Mez

I came later so I missed seeing you.

My mileage has been all over the place since having the head/cam package installed. I've gotten as high as 27 mpg on the highway @ 70 mph and as low as 16 mpg in the city. Yesterday going to thee 620/35 then to the "Y" I got 22 mpg. Granted, my right foot needed to be stretch a few times which could explain some of the difference. I had one of the gentlemen that comes to the 620/35 meet monitor my ECM tune with HP Tuner for an hour and everything looked good.

MarkRx

while were talking about a tune, is there any free softwre online that allows you to monitor your ECU? I have an OBD-II to use cable.

It sounds like you got there way to early this past weekend. A couple of friends in another car club showed up at 7:30pm that night and stayed till 10pm. They said no Police of any city or state showed up and there were 50-60 cars. None of the problem makers and no import crowd showed up.

This weekend may or may not be a big turn out due to 3 different car shows in Austin going on. Classics at Rudy's @ 183, German @ Fry's and British at Settler's Park in Round Rock. Plus a Corvette show in Temple or Waco and the CF Picnic in DFW.

EVIL

Plus ACL...

I have been getting an E-Mail every so often about a car show at one of the local restaurants in Pflugerville. I got one the other day which said they had outgrown the restaurant they were at and were moving. Last night a friend and I decided to check out this car show.

We arrived about 6:30 PM. There were a few cars there from the meet at 620 and IH-35. Turnout was low because of everything happening in Austin yesterday. I talked to James Lyle, the guy behind this show, about the show and some of the problems we had at previous places. He assured me none of these problems would happen here and gave me reasons why not. He also said he would have part of the parking lot roped off for exclusive use of the car show. He gives out awards and has a 50/50 drawing which benefits the local high school football foundation. He was also willing to set aside areas of the show for folks who would like to be grouped together, car clubs, Corvettes, Vipers, etc.

Location: next to the Texas Roadhouse in front of Tinseltown on IH-35
Time: 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM every Saturday Night

Is there a fee?

ESturm

No Fee.

There is a pop-up set up where you can buy 50/50 tickets and other stuff.

Everett

So that's where you and Tom were going. I saw ya'll, but it didn't register until we were past. We went by and checked out 620 & I35. There were a few cars, but a friend who came by later said that there were 2-3 Honda Civics racing around the parking lot and the police showed up and told everyone to leave again.
Where's the nearest Whataburger to this place?

MarkRx

why is it no one acts stupid when i am there? I can assure you i'll be the first to get right up in the face of these knuckeheads that are ruining our meet spots. Maybe the tinseltown meet spot will be a success for the north austin folks

ESturm

I thought that was you when we were waiting to turn on Gattis School road. I waved but I don't think you were paying attention (not to mention my dark tinted windows).

The nearest Whataburger is down IH-35 on the west side frontage road and can be reached from the Wells Branch exit than cross Wells Branch or the Howard Lane exit and get in the right hand lane immediately. It's next to a IHOP.

I saw James tell someone driving through with loud music to turn it down which he did. Next weekend might still be a little disorganized since the Pflugerville Football Boosters are having a real car show at Pflugerville High School on Saturday.

I sent you a PM. Texas is pretty sweet.

AM.MSCL

I am curious to find out what time your friend said the police kicked everyone out. I have a friend that claims to have been there at 7:30pm - 9:45pm when the police showed up and told everyone to leave. No reason for the police to ask people other then wanting it clear out by 10pm.

haljensen

With no one sure of the where or when of any meets I'm going to go to the Oak Hill "Y" tomorrow night. At least there are some different cars there that I haven't seen at other meets over the last few years. 6:30 till ?

Mez

I was at the "Y" last Saturday between 8 to 9 pm. There was probably 30-40 cars parked in the old Albertson's lot. A new ZR1 which was at the Rudy's show, a supercharged Z06, a mid-year with LS2 engine mounted in an aftermarket frame, a few race cars on trailers, old Mustangs, '50's cars, and rods. Pretty diverse group.

Is the RT620/35 meet really dead or do the cops monitor then throw everyone out that night when one guy does something stupid. (Oh, to be 18 yrs old again.....but that's another story.)

ESturm

I suspect the IH-35/620 spot is dead. The troublemakers seem to keep going back and causing the police to show up.

Some of us are going to meet at the organized spot in front of Tinseltown, next to the Texas Roadhouse. We'll see how this one works out.

From the South on IH-35 take the Grand Avenue Parkway Exit 248 and get in the right lane.
From the North on IH-35 take the Wells Branch Exit 247 and take the U-Turn lane to go back North on the Frontage Road. Get in the right lane.

Tinseltown/Texas Roadhouse is on the right. The entrance to the parking lot is pretty steep so don't take it too fast.

The meet goes from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM

3? weeks ago about 7PM a Uniformed Round Rock Cop asked us (5-6 'vette owners) to leave the 620/I35 meet, said the owner didn't want us there. That was Official enough for me. The Cop walked the full lot, asked everybody to leave.

Mez

I got to the "Y" at 7:30 last night and there were a few Corvettes but as I said before, its a pretty diverse group. No ricers if I remember. Since I did not see anyone I know, I left after 15 minutes and went up to the 620/35 meet and arrived at around 8:30.

When I arrived, there were newer GTO's, Supras, Camaros, and "ricers" were there but left around 10pm. There was a new yellow Corvette and later a blue original 1965 Big Block Coupe drove up that looked very nice, then a C5 supercharged Z06, and a C6 Z06. I few of us stayed around and chatted to about 10:30am. No cops.
