Finally some more DFW an/o/ns come out of hiding. I hope these don't keep dying.
Jose Reyes
After this meet we'll start establishing Austin and Dallas hubs.
Cooper Allen
I live in Minnesota and I hate the cold so much. I heard Texas has low cost of living. Sell me on it or turn me away from it. I hate mexicans less than somalians or basketball americans and will tolerate any amount of heat, I just can't stand the bullshit that is -30f temps and salt.
Daniel Sullivan
COL really is low here, at least compared to liberal states (although property taxes are nearly 2%, property isn't very expensive). Suburban Texas is really white in my experience, but expect to live in a McMansion if you want that perk. I can leave my 3-car garage door open overnight with no problems. It's good that you don't like cold, but I hope you like hot, because it doesn't go below 90F during the day 8 months a year. It doesn't sound that bad until your AC stops working and you're sleeping naked on the tile floor and paying $5k+ to have some mexicans replace your compressor. You'd best have a garage because parking in the sun can lead to electrical problems as the insulation melts. Salt is basically unheard of here. The roads only ice a few days a year, and when they do, entire cities shut down. Also you'd best not be allergic to any plants. -DFW
Jacob Johnson
It's p nice here year round but summertime reaches up to 115F, AKA hot as shit. Consider if the trade off is worth sweating so bad you can get a heatstroke from sitting in traffic if you're a retard who doesn't drink enough water. I missed the last DFW meet at the autoX thing. ):
Nolan Butler
Also we're technically in tornado alley but Terrall and Tarrant county seem to get bit more often than us
Jordan King
texas is shit californian master race reporting in
Kayden Miller
Nice try, goy.

Michael Morris
nah man im not a commie
Aaron Davis
If you don't like blacks and mexicans stay away from all the major cities besides fort worth - they are all blue and went to Obama/Clinton. Plus a lot of transplants are coming from California for the lower cost of living, so it's making them even more blue. You can live in rural areas outside of the cities to get away, but you'll still be dealing with them when you go to work, shopping, etc.
Stick to fort worth and east texas if you're really looking to live near like-minded rednecks and want that comfy white power feeling.
Nolan Baker
Isn't Fort Worth the place where several shootings have been happening?
Adam Gutierrez
probably, it's still got issues like others, just more white people
Oliver Carter
stay in MN, tired of out-of-staters ballooning taxes and property costs
Jason Williams
How many Night Wave members are going to attend?
Christian Richardson
Damn guys what a coincidence. The Texas Solstice and Sky club is going to be there that day also and I was already planning on attending. So I will be there.
Pic is of me on Ranch Road 335 in Dec of 2015.
Next autox meet is March 4th at Texas Motor Speedway.
Wyatt Cox
Austinfag here, sign me up. Hopefully my new headgaskets will last the whole trip this time.
Don't go to Austin if you want low cost of living, and don't go to Houston if you don't want to live near ghetto black people.
Brayden Stewart
>Damn guys what a coincidence. The Texas Solstice and Sky club is going to be there that day
What, really? Same place and time? I just pulled the date out of my ass, that really is some coincidence. What time?
John Ortiz
>Don't go to Austin if you want low cost of living, and don't go to Houston if you don't want to live near ghetto black people.
Some of the realest advice I've heard.
Cameron Long
Join the /hou/ groupme
Leo Sanders
dont do it
Carson Sanders
>What, really? Yeah man. This meet has been planned since September. >What time? Nothing set in stone yet. They will pick somewhere to meet around Kerville and head to the Sisters around 8 or 9 am.
Most likely what I will do is head out with them early and catch up with ya'll later in the day.
Ethan Nelson
Yeah, 8:00 or 9:00 is too early.
Samuel Bailey
Definitely too early, if this is gonna be a statewide meet it's gotta be a little later to accommodate for travel time. Texas is a big ass state, yo. Nobody wants to get up at 4 am on a Saturday.
Also, adding don't go to El Paso if you don't want to live near ghetto Mexicans.
Aaron Campbell
I'll be there :)
Liam Murphy
Definitely after noon, but I would imagine at least some of it during the day, so somewhere between 4:00 and 7:00 PM I'd think. As an initial meeting time at least.
Angel Williams
>Mustang
Try not to genocide us.
Landon Howard
There shouldn't be any crowds so we be good, also didn't rek at the Austin toe gays
Jaxon Wood
Whatever you do, do NOT come to Houston. It's muggy, hot, and I'm pretty sure whites are a minority here (my area is over half Mexican). The roads are really dirty, and the car culture might as well be called North Mexico (i.e. swangas and dropped trucks) or Brotruck central. Not many stancefags or muslims though. Lots of moms in suvs/minivans who suck at driving. Lots of floods recently, I've had six friends lose their cars to floods. Pic related is 85% accurate.
If you're going to move to texas, do yourself a favor and stick to the DFW, or the area around Austin. The area around Austin (key- 30-45 minutes away in all directions) is p cool, and Austin is nice in small doses. The hill country can also be pretty cool, if you avoid the extremely white trash areas
Brody Thomas
>Whatever you do, do NOT come to Houston.
As someone who's lived in Houston for the past 14 years, I didn't have to read any further. Heed his advice. The only upside is it's a good place to be if you have no money at all.
Charles Moore
youre muatang is so autistic
Ian Cook
Thanks m8, I really appreciate your input
Wyatt Long
>Moostang on the touge
Blake Phillips
Are these things usually spergfests? What kind of activities go on, just driving? DFW fag here
Thomas Walker
>beltwy8 and fairmont >get shot
thats made cracker central (plus snooty 40 year old mexican women in last gen escalades) with pet grooming and day spas and chain retail everywhere.
Noah Moore
>Implying I don't have more track time than you
Christian Morgan
>Implying I don't have more togue time than you
Luke Murphy
Was anybody here part of the classic BMW meet that happened there a couple months ago?
Gavin Campbell
Will you guys make fun of me if I show up in my Camry?
Robert James
Race me irl fgt
Aiden Brooks
>attention whoring
just show up and be yourself
Carson Lee
>first ever "Wrong"
We organized a dozen or so successful meets from 2011-2013 at places more central Texas so everyone could attend. Shit Antonio is pretty far south of a drive.
Cooper Ramirez
It really is a spergfest... It ends up being a bunch of idiots standing around in a parking lot with hoods up, hands in pockets just grunting and nodding which eventually leads to a das attempt of driving a shitty back road until the troopers show up or a Miata flips
Nolan Ortiz
ok
Samuel Garcia
A cop showed up once, AFTER the run, and no trouble was caused.
Jaxson Gray
>It ends up being a bunch of idiots standing around in a parking lot with hoods up, hands in pockets just grunting and nodding this is basically how it is at all Veeky Forums meets regardless of board or purpose
Jaxon Rodriguez
The fuck are you talking about? /hou/ meets are great. Genuinely which meets have you been to?
Alexander Bennett
Nice self-deprecating meme. Guess you should go to a Plebbit meet, then.
Wrong.
Isaac Hill
They're fine. You have to look at it logically. Only the least autistic portion of the population is going to be willing to expose themselves to face-to-face social interaction.
Zachary Gray
Nice photo, K. What kind of camera you use?
Didn't hear about it. How'd it go?
Nathaniel Carter
Yes.
This.
Jose Campbell
>camera kek all the photos I have posted in this thread where taken with a Galaxy S5.
Connor Gutierrez
nigga the fuck that was literally our meet last night
-the driving part
Brody Peterson
Its actually not really much of a spergfest so much as it is a group of goys with a lower than average level of political correctness having a good time and making each other laugh
Im sorry that you are so
Parker Cooper
sorry meant to reply to
Nathaniel Baker
Like I said, 85% accurate
Camden Ross
Austin Veeky Forums meets in a nut shell
Love the Miata kid who ended up in a AW11 after flipping his NB Miata.
I always wondered if he wrecked his mr2
Brandon Johnson
I don't know what you're trying to say.
Chase Morales
Fug. Seriously good photo quality. You singlehandedly sold me on an S5.
Brayden Edwards
Whoops, meant to say I don't know what is supposed to be saying.
Daniel Brown
>a group of goys with a lower than average level of political correctness having a good time and making each other laugh
Exactly this.
Landon Morales
Sorry Austin is so autistic. Not even sure if I'm being condescending.
Gavin Walker
>How'd it go? It was nice. There are a couple of blind corners you need to watch out for though. There's speed warnings before most of the turns, but the main danger are amateur idiots coming the other direction. Almost got memed by some fratboy idiots in a c4 coming around a corner in the wrong lane, and met a man who rolled his Focus st down a mountain. There's a bunch of cool scenic overlooks with little gravel paved stops off to the side, and the mountains provide a really cool driving experience. The food is generally pretty good, with most of the places being focused around bikers (watch out for bikers on the roads too), so it's mostly barbeque. I think the place I was at was called the Historic Leakey Inn or something. Highly recommended
Adam Hughes
>Mustang >on highly twisty roads
To the back of the pack you go. At least you'll only wreck whoever's in front of you.
David Sullivan
You guys know each other? Dallas group I'm guessing?
Easton Rivera
>Ranger danger everywhere
Thank god I'm too poor to own a car I care about.
And since you've actually driven on it before, any suggestions on where to set up checkpoints, or places of interests along the route?
Wyatt Jenkins
How long did it take? Google Maps says 2 hrs, 45 mins.
Brandon Ward
Camp wood is nice, and I think there's a little gas station/lunch place at the intersection of 336 and 41. Other than that, just look for signs as you drive, I believe the stops are marked. I honestly can't be bothered to find them on the map right now.
I don't remember. It didn't seem like that long, but if your car is liable to explode from too much continuous driving, I'd make use of the stops on the side of the route
Jonathan Brown
>medina is a 7hr 25 minute drive from me It's just not worth it
Julian Bennett
>nigga the fuck that was literally our meet last night >-the driving part Nigga, the fuck? that was literally our meet last night, minus the driving part.
Evan Baker
Yup. They're both pretty slow though.
Owen Jenkins
Then you're not worth it.
Liam Collins
That's a lot more forested than I was expecting. Noice.
Elijah Roberts
I mean y'all aren't worth a 2 hour drive tbf.
Adrian Young
>First far from it. This guy gets it. Remember the 300zx crash? >wrong check yourself
Kayden Rodriguez
Wrong.
Robert Peterson
Yeah, then you're not worth it either, so. No loss.
Luis Nelson
Low cost my ass. I'm paying practically 700 for a shithole in Austin. And I have no friends so pls anyone.
Gavin Turner
It was some good fun when I was driving around there. If you guys go, I'm sure you'll have a good time. There's some legitimately frightening parts of the sisters though, so prepare yourself
Robert Sanchez
We said Houston is low cost and Austin is not.
Tyler Sanchez
There will be at least one casualty.
Brody Collins
Never been to a meet before. What sort of cars do you usually see? Is it a lot of sub-2k shitboxes, or mostly low-tier sports cars? >considering bringing my volvo 240
Owen Collins
Your answer's in this thread, barring the lurkers who refuse to post theirs.
Chase Peterson
San Antonio fag here.
I plan on coming along just need to double check i won't be busy that week.
There are some nice BBQ places in some towns in the hill country very close to the 3 sisters.
Whenever I go for a drive there I usually stop to eat at a BBQ place in Bandera which is between Medina and San Antonio.
Also Medina has a place called The Apple Store that has very good home made apple pastries and other foods.
Lost Maples state park is also very close to the twisted sisters if anyone wants some nice scenery.
Nolan Barnes
Another pic from Ranch Road 336
Yeah he fondled my balls one time at a DFW meet.
Medina over 6 hours from me. TX is pretty big so some driving is going to be required if it is going to be a "state wide" meet. You just need to git gud.
U wot m8
I would say its a mix of both
Adam Bailey
You heard me.
Elijah Flores
pigfat pls go
Blake Harris
Hey guys dallasfag here. Just got a speeding ticket for 85 in a 45 (5 mph from a FREE IMPOUND! GEE WHIZ) That being said, assuming I still have a liscence by the time the meet comes around, how are cops on the road? How is traffic? How fast can I go?
Jaxon Powell
>tfw I own a shitty 3500lb 4cyl shitbox and cant have fun on the twisties. :(
Dominic Green
Cant argue with those 9's....
Asher Stewart
Dude, I guarantee no one's going to bring a shittier car than me, but I'm still determined to go.
Brody Martin
>You just need to git gud
Fucking this.
Jackson Robinson
No it wasn't.
Adrian Brooks
Fuck, I don't know how I keep accidentally quoting the wrong posts.
