I talked to PT today and he said he could make it because, him and his wife just split up and he has nothing better to do. ;D

Added to the calendar.

Who is PT?
cdc
(the former ***)
You'll see if he shows up.
what's the traffic like around the 6:00pm time on 121/183/121 coming from DFW airport? looks like that will end up being my route...put me in as a definite, with a possibility of being late.
have chips 'n salsa ready for me plz...queso too! and now that i think of it, i'm pretty sure they put that chips 'n queso on your ticket at oasis, Alan...i get this one!
Traffic sucks on those roads at that time of day. You would probally have better luck coming from 30.
okay then i'll come down 360 to 30
If the trackday is canceled I'll make it out for this, if not have a good time guys wt:

Thanks I will try that!
Jim you coming to dinner tonight??
(doing my part to keep other threads on-topic)Unable to commit at this time. I'd give it a 50/50 probability at this point. Count me/us
out, unless I call you and ask to get one (or two) seats for me/us.
I'm still in. mo:t:

she's in the loft right now for some loving, actually...tonight i'll be in a cage; i have to take a friend to the airport after work. but i should be in for saturday still, if i can decipher where/when everyone is meeting at exactly.
Its 3:36 and its almost time to meat I mean meet up and eat some meat!! :e:v
Headed home now!
Rich, ther is no good way for you to come. I was thinking about what you said "360 to 30" that sucks also because you have to get off the highway to get back on the highway. So do your best and we'll see you when you get there! I'll be there around 6ish.
W00T ;D (another thread, I know)
I set a reservation for 6:30 under my name. wt:
See ya there. mo:t:

The group kept getting bigger and bigger. We went from two tables to four, I think. Glad the trackmasters came by after a hard day of riding fast and taking chances. Thanks to our secret benefactor for the outstanding tequila shots!
It was just as well we didn't work too hard to figure out where to go watch the Stars playoff game. By the time I got home, debriefed the wife, and channel surfed for the game, it was already over. Better luck next game Dallas....
What a great time. Totally worth the trip. Thanks to Ashok for the Patron. wt:

+1, indeed--good stuff Ashok. 8)
you were missing out on that tequilla, alan....good stuff. thanks Ashok! i saw some hooligan fly by me on I30 near beltline...he must have been doing at *least* 75, maybe 80! and then this guy in this bigass pickup with some white bike in the bed was driving like a maniac and nearly kills right at the exit ramp on I30 for I35. i'm seriously lucky to have made it home in one piece.
and i had some free entertainment after getting home; i heard a bunch of yelling around 10pm out on the street (i'm on 13), which wasn't abnormal for a thursday night (i figured maybe the stars came from behind and won?)...finally i leaned out of my window and tried to see what was going on, and saw a huge gaggle of people near city tavern, photo flashes going off, people running towards the gaggle from the other side of the street, tv cameras, etc...i thought maybe there was one of the Stars players making an appearance, but then i remembered that it was an away game... a couple minutes later i figured out what was going on... they were doing an episode of "cheaters". awesome! i got to see the whole confrontation go down, too. no fights or anything i could see, just yelling and swearing (it's nice to finally hear cheaters without the "bleeps"). the people at city tavern were loving it. they got to sit outside drinking beers and watching it all go down, and then heckle them! what a sweet deal... oh, and i met my downstairs neighbor, who was also leaning out of her window. good times! wt:
awesome! cheaters! guess no stabbings eh?
Looks like a fun time! I sure missed out. Wish I could have made it!
Thanks for the pics, although I could have gone the whole day without that crotch shot. ;:|
Don.t know who took that but it was indeed a board infraction of the 2 point variety!
damn it the one time i can't show and we get a really good crowd. :bang oh well! I WILL NOT MISS NEXT TIME!!!!
where for next time i must know??? ???
Chris we never discussed it. We will talk about it on Sat. but it will be in the middle somewhere.

"Ducati=Time Machine"
Ashok, thanks for the drink, but no way in hell could I drink patron. I WILL THROW UP!! and no one wanted that last night. And Scott what the hell is up with that crotch shot ???. That must have been for the STG guy (mccain) ;:|
