>What? A gathering of Veeky Forums users to drive spiritedly together and bring all Texas (and beyond) users together to share in the enthusiasm.
>When? February 25th. This allows at least one month's worth of notice for the board to prepare and schedule for it. It lands on a Saturday. Time of day to be determined.
>Where? Widely considered to be the best stretch of driving roads in the state, The Three Twisted Sisters starts in Medina, northwest of San Antonio, and ends in Leakey, and is a 131-mile series of twisty roads.
>Where can I sign up? Just post in this thread with a picture of the vehicle you'll be bringing, and we'll add you to the roster.
Be sure to download the Zello, a walkie talkie app for road communication and coordination: zello.com/texwave
>What can I do/how can I help? Post suggestions for the meet, if you live nearby or know someone who does, feel free to drive it and scout it out to determine interesting landmarks, regroup points, gas stations, and other things that will help keep the experience smooth.
Not bad, but I have a feeling more people are coming than they're letting on, so we need more participation.
Chase Thomas
So I've got it down for 2 hours, 130 miles.
Google Maps changes the route slightly when I elect to avoid tolls, does anyone know if there are any tolls out there, or is maps being retarded? I don't see why there would be.
I don't think anyone's bringing food, or wants anyone else to, so anyone know places nearby to eat?

>This route is mainly very twisty passing over large hills and between not many gas stations. This roller coaster ride will no doubt blow you away. The road is not heavily traveled, but beware as sharp turns have certainly taken many down. Also, although the surface is mostly in very good condition, always watch for loose gravel, deer and slow moving locals heading back to their ranch ... often a much slower pace than we're zippin by at.
>This route isn't going to be know for its "Roadside Amenities" as much as it is known for its scenery and road quality. There are some very nice pull-outs, stop and enjoy the long vistas. Gas up in Leakey as there are not too many gas stations to choose from and where there is a very good motorcycle shop. For a refreshing summertime swimming hole try the Frio River. Note: Hwy 16 between Kerrville and Bandera is not for beginners! Due to recent accidents, weekend police patrol has increased a great deal. Hwy 173 may be a better route between Kerrville & Bandera.
Jose Price
The day of the run is expected to be between 48°-72°, sunny, 0% chance of rain. Sunset at 6:30 PM.
Sebastian Sanchez
I'd be up for a sit-down Mexican restaurant. Don't know any in that area though.
Ryder Martinez
There seems to be a few around Bandera.
Connor Collins
Gas stations are practically non-existent along the route, so be sure to fuel up either in Bandera or Leakey.
Ethan Bailey
Yo hold up. I aint no Johny Tran.

Brayden Brown

Tyler Edwards
Whatchu tryna get done?
Angel Bell
well ive blown 2 f20c motors now. I redid my AC system. I replaced the transmission and clutch 10k miles ago....
nothing super fancy but basic stuff.
Cameron Rodriguez
>well ive blown 2 f20c motors now
This seems to be a common theme with S2Ks.
Angel Morales
Only if you really push the engine and do stupid things... though it doesn't explain all my failures.
first one threw a rod for no reason (that i or 3 other mechanics could tell). I still have the block. Its been 3 years since that rod few out and the only thing ive ever found that might be right was water was in the cylinder but that doesnt make since seeing as the car had been sitting in a garage for 3 days before.
Second dropped a valve on the track at 9500rpm cause WHOOPS mechanical over rev. Purely my fault even though i had done the ap2 retainers that "should' protect to 10k over revs.
I know plenty of S2k's who track with 150k+ miles.
Aiden Russell

Levi Jenkins
I have an 11.7 head instead of a US spec 11.0 right now. Makes more power but god help me if i ever over rev and get valve float.
Ryan Nelson
Are you going to the Texas meet? Know anyone else who's going?
Wyatt Watson
i only just found out about it when i posted. Probably not.
Christian Morris
Well you posted when you posted that picture which was a while ago.
oh... so i did. Well then i guess i better check and see if i cant go then!

Though 3 days out, I'm worried about participation. Only about a dozen or so people have posted interest, I think the problem is the thread isn't getting enough exposure, or word hasn't gotten out. 72 hours to at least get a roll call.
Ryder Lee
There just aren't that many of us. Ever since I have been going to DFW meets the most one meet ever had was 7, but that was March of 2015. Since then its usually its only 3-4 of us. Also some people might not want to drive 4+ hours to meet with a bunch of autists.
Angel Hall
Have fun anons. Wish I could be there. Next time.
Jayden Taylor
I did enjoy that one meet we had in austin that one time with the 300zx that crashed into the wall.
Blake Wilson
But I mean, if you're doing a "state" meet, I would figure a neutral ground would be the most balanced proposal, it's not really close to anyone, and I would think if anyone knows the meaning of traveling great distances, it's the largest state in the 48.
Alexander Thomas
nyoro~n
Julian Morgan
How many Night Wave boys going?
Ayden Smith
Don't know yet. At least 2.
Jason Diaz
I can't make this meet, but I will definitely shoot for the next one. When/where do you think the next one will be?
Cooper Ross
Depends on what we end up agreeing on at the meet. Hopefully one where the date works for everybody.
Jonathan Gutierrez
At least 10 of them were interested, but the date just didn't end up working out for most schedules.
Jason Wilson
I'm thinking about going, but my car's in such shit condition I don't know if it'd be realistically better for me to ride passenger with someone. No backup car.
Eli Nguyen
Same case for me, just need to make sure it's running properly this weekend before leaving. The fuel cost will be a bit high but I haven't been outside the city in a while anyways. It's a three hour trip from Houston which is not so bad.
Anthony Peterson
Anybody going to the All Team Bash in San Antonio? It usually gets pretty lit I'm coming from south texas with some friends to check it out
Dylan Wood
When?
Tyler Martin
4/23
Ethan Stewart
Daily Zello reminder.
Samuel Perez
Only 7? Wow. The smallest Houston meet on record is 10. There has to be at least 10 of us for state. But no matter big or small, it'll work well.
Adrian Turner
So far it seems like Bandera Park at 2 PM (though some seem to want 5 PM), and a Mexican restaurant either before or after the park, but before the run.
Also, bring cameras, dash cams, and take pics, videos, thread material.
Connor Robinson
Get the hype flowing, ask anyone you think may be interested. Passengers count.
Carter Lewis
Also, Texas meet chapter(s) will be part of Night Wave: Final Reality documentary.
Alexander James
April? Sheit, prolly.
Colton Ortiz
>still only 6
Someone's not doing their job, fucking join that shit whether you're going or not, you can listen in.
Ryder Phillips
Set the interruption window to 10 seconds, so if anyone takes longer than 10 seconds to say something, they can be overriden.
Evan Morgan
We have around five people coming in from Houston, no way there are only 7 people in total.
Lucas Martin
Fucking lurkers, I swear.
Noah Barnes
Every time.
Jaxson Bell
>texas
Jonathan Roberts
I could be wrong, but there may be some hints that you have to pay to go to Bandera Park, can anyone confirm this?
Josiah Collins
>tripping as anonymous
Carter King
There's Mansfield Park and Hill Country State Park if that doesn't work out.
Angel Flores
>page 3
Not on my watch.
Christian Hill
Does anyone have a passenger seat open in case I can't make it on my own?
Zachary Cruz
what city?
Brayden Wood
Houston. Though I wouldn't mind leaving my car in Bandera, as I know it can make it to the starting point, but I don't trust it once we start running hard on more demanding roads.
Connor Thomas
what will you bring as compensation?
Ethan Clark
split the bill on gas and you'll be alright with me
Jaxon Perry

Dominic Parker
Now maybe I'm just counting wrong, but which are the 3 Sisters? By my count there's 5 stretches.
