/hou/ - Tonight's the Night

Just so the cruisers know, what's the speed limit on the Forest Run?

...

Speed limit is 55

55 seems pretty fast for an unlit two-lane backroad.

Aldo for those of yall who aren't too autismo I live right next to house of pies... Y'all are welcome to come have some drinks and crash...

The one on kirby or westheimer?

Didn't know there were two. I live on Shepard, I'm close to the one on Kirby

Still say we should pick a different starting point so we can avoid local redguards.

Where there are bends the street itself is painted to warn you

In fact, yeah. Anyone else in favor of shifting the start point to D&B on Silber? It's closer to the Forest Touge, too.

Badass. Been meaning to keep an archive.

>and crash

No one on Veeky Forums is that generous. Are they?

Here, M3 will probably make it.
I have a backup car

Threadly reminder to join the Zello channel if you haven't already:

You will be seriously handicapped without it.

Pics?

Well, that's not a bad idea to be honest. A huge parking spot, right next to the highway, lots of things to do there as well.

However, let's postpone that for the next meet, since this one has already been decided for Happy Teahouse. We can't just keep changing things, I mean look at the mess just happened in the last 10 hours, we can't even decide on where to drive. Any more confusion might just make people not come instead.

We captured people's inspiration with the second meet, we've spawned a whole wave of board-wide meets. Now we just look incompetent because we're still bickering about what we're supposed to be doing on the day of.

I agree we can't keep setting bad examples, it'd deter potential future membership.

I just don't want more hobos coming up and bothering us. Last thing we need is the meet having to be canceled because someone drew on someone and had to talk to the cops. We have a lot of neat cars coming, so we should think about the atmosphere we're driving them into.

Some of you are some seriously paranoid people you know that. In the second meet we didn't experience any of that at Happy Teahouse. I heard that happened in the mini meet but only when it was late at night. Also, this is going to be on a Friday which is the busiest night on the streets. Everything will be crowded and lit up. Besides, we won't stay at Happy Teahouse more than 9P.M and we also decided for the next meet we will take a poll on which area to pick for the meet. It's getting too late to decide on what to do already, as mentioned, if we change things now it can demotivate people to even meet up.

oh shit nig i live like 2 blocks away from there

Poster v2.

We're at exactly 20, it seems.

Fat Pat Memorial Meet is a go.

Since you don't have a picture, here ya go.

Who here /insomnia/?

That would be me, I have major problems sleeping m8. fucking depressing.

I slept from 1230 to 0530

When I have work I sleep until I have to leave the house in five minutes

That feel

Same schedule here today, man. Gotta look forward to the drivan tonight.

Literally haven't slept at all. Will see how this goes.

>family Guy
Kek

Changing my upper control arm

Finished with the obligatory blood offering

Well my wrist got snagged on a bolt so there's a neat little gouge of skin taken out that didn't make it in the picture . Installed my hids and threw in some water wetter

Get some off and de fog those lights

I sanded the piss out of them that's the best it'll clear up. It looks foggy because the lights are bright as fucc

And off gives you an awful rebound effect. You think it's a scientific miracle when you just spray it on and three days later it's yellower and foggier than ever.

>owning a white car

better have the energy to wash that bitch every other day

White is not bad
Black is hell

Just washed my car for the meet. Can confirm black car is hell.

Stickers will be ready tomorrow. I know I already let him have it I told him he was fucking lazy because he had all week to get them done

Scott Pilgrim

No longer 100% sure if I'll be able to make it, but by god I'll try
I want that sticker though

>tomorrow

And this is after he cut the alternator? What an asshole.

I told him on Sunday I needed them ready by Friday a few times too. What a fag. I'm not going to pay him the three dollars I owe him that nigger is getting 77 dollars for these 20 stickers

Dropped the suspension another inch for that jdm tight stance

cool story fa.m

translation, post a pic

I know how that feels. I ordered a dash cam a while back in anticipation of this meet, even paid extra for expedited shipping, and it still hasn't arrived. Obviously not quite the same thing, since your item(s) would be distributed among the group, but I feel the disappointment.

It's cool, though, we can always collect them on the 22nd.

5 hours to go.

>gonna get home by 6
>meet up spots an hour away
>gf's car isn't starting
>still have to give my car a once over

Fuck man. I'm still gonna try.

Meh it'll be sideways.

It's not actually that low, but it's as low as I'll take it. Houston roads and all...

v3.

Foo my was posted both in an earlier hou thread and in the Honda thread. Also mustang bro isn't attending his car is at the stealership for repairs

Don't remember it, and

>implying I've ever been in the Honda thread

I'll add you.

whats wrong with the mustang?

By no means is my car low, but it is low enough to the ground to make me slow down to a crawl for some driveways and some speed bumps. Its about as high off of the ground as a mustang but the wheelbase makes it almost seesaw sometimes.

It's only lowered in the front but stock height in the back

v4.

Mine is about 5.75 inches of clearance for the front bumper.

Which is perfect because I can run over a painfully average errect penor without scrapping at all.

let's take some penis to bumper clearance measurements after the meet u down bro?

I was going to try to make it out tonight, but I ended up having an appointment with some clients. I'll try for next time.

Houston is packing some heat baby

Did wat racing drop our sponsorship?>mfw rain narrowly misses shitting up our meet

You can never trust expedited shipping to deliver on time senpai, it just doesn't work that well. I really wanted someone to have a dashcam and record, I think Focus ST is the only guy who has one so far. If more people have it maybe we can get the videos together and put some euro-beat over it.

Interesting to see that many people want to redo the 610 loop (blue) since we already did that last time. I guess the vote will be decided by the time we get there.

It *would* be nice to do it without having to worry about inland seas.

Well if it's not flooded then we will go with the second highest one then, 610. Perhaps if anyone is passing by brazos can let us know if it will be or not in order to save time.

I mean if it IS flooded.

I don't think Brazos is flooded, I'm saying it would be nice to do a dry 610 run.

Still thinking whether I should clean my car or not, because of the extreme heat it might make it worse by leaving dried out water marks.

Planning on washing mine at around 7 so it'll be darker...

2 and a half hours to go till I leave

Which I find hilarious because no one wanted to do it the first time. No one who was vocal, anyway. Now all of a sudden we want to do 610?

It's Diesel time, bitches.

mfw GS400 doesn't bring stickers to the meet

NICE CAR

Been driving all day in the heat with dat glorious no A/C, really looking forward to some night driving.
Anyone else coming in from the Spring/Tomball area?

Pretty sure Dracula's coming from Tomball.

Me. I'll be washing and vacuuming my car at 6; leaving at 7.

Is there anything like Race Wars?

If there isn't, we're going to start it.

YAS

Have fun guys. I spent more than I wanted to on all this shit.

Which reminds me, if everyone could fill out this survey, for their power level column, it'd be interesting to see what the distribution is like in terms of racers vs cruisers. So we get a sense of where everyone's at.

docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1g8SQlAr_V43jeOt92yPrh0GXDmMcI2SYGbm3xP-XJkM/edit?usp=sharing

Power level scale:

>0
Not even interested in driving. Just a passenger.

>1
Willing to drive, but little else.

>2
Drive at molasses pace.

>3
Just under the speed limit.

>4
Strictly at the speed limit.

>5
Pure cruising.

>6
Willing to adapt, but low drive to go much faster than necessary.

>7
Moderate inclination for speed, but still remains within the bounds of the law where applicable.

>8
Moderately high drive to find thrills. Will occasionally actively seek opportunities to let loose.

>9
Got the need for speed. Speed is part of your life, it's part of what makes you feel alive. High risk taker, will only occasionally see the need to slow down.

>10
Fast and furious. If it's not about to make your adrenaline pulse, there is no interest in it for you. You live your life a quarter mile (or a touge or wangan) at a time.

>11
TAKE TO THE LIMIT.

>O'rly vehicle renewal

Nice. If you want me give you a hand let me know I drive around with a full suite of tools

>Parents ask me where I am going
>"Just to meet some friends"
>"But user, you have no friends"
>"T-thanks dad"

Hold me /hou/

Once /hou/, always crew.

we'll have the Honda drivers go sloot scooting for bitches to show up with

Departing in about an hour. If everyone could get on Zello, that'd be great.
