(Austin) Cruise-in this weekend (June 8-9th)...
Anyone in the Austin area up for a Cruise-In this weekend? I was thinking of maybe cruising out to Lockhart or Elgin for some good BBQ then maybe taking in a scenic drive? Let me know what you guys think.

I'm up for it. I actually came to Southwest looking for something like this. If I didn't find it I was gonna post one. :D
The 8th is my anniversary, so the 9th would probably be a better.

Chris, Congrats!
Everyone, How does the 9th sound? I was thinking about taking 79 to 95 out to 290 in Elgin and eating lunch then maybe heading out 95 for a cruise around Lake Granger or something like that.

wish I could join ya'll.
A couple weeks ago my buddy and I took a nice cruise in the vert to Llano. Went from 360 to 290 to 71 thru Llano to 29 and back to Burnet. It's a real nice route, with LOTS of high-speed opportunity. I highly recommend it, even though it's a little long (like 120 miles and 2 hrs).

Eric,
What happened with Wes' clutch? Was it just low on fluid?

If I can get my manifold back from the guy who's bead-blasting it, get it back on and the distributor back in, I'll go (given my mechanical skills, I'm guessing that's about a 50/50 proposition). Probably have to meet ya'll there--I'll be coming up from San Marcos.

Oh, yeah, and I vote for Lockhart--I do love Kruetz's. Though if you gentlemen like something tamer (say, something that actually comes with forks and sauce), it's hard to beat the Salt Lick. . . .

*sigh* you guys have fun, I would love to join you but right now I'm in the middle of sanding down my floor pans and I have half of the interior ripped out, that and it doesn't run too reliably yet, hopefully I will be in better shape to join you next time. ;)

Hmm...Lockhart BBQ or Elgin Sausage.
You know...I don't really care. Just point me in the right direction and I'll eat. :D

I am here. I don't know what I have going on for the 9th but I might be able to do something. I think I am out for the 8th due to the fight but I it depends on what time you want to head out.
