I'm probably heading there at 930 to catch the open kitchen. I'll hang out for a bit with some drinks though.

Rwilliams8586 06-09-2012 05:17 PM

I'm out. Windshield cracked from top to bottom. :(

I did not see any paint damage....whew.

Good thing you didn't have an appointment today, you probably drove away in one of the red nismo's. :)

Pintsize725 06-09-2012 07:30 PM

That's good. I think that windshield claims don't cause your rates to increase, but paint sure does. Bummer luck, but she'll be better soon!

jhh343 06-09-2012 08:41 PM

It sucks but I am on my second windshield too. A rock hit me on 183. It was $400 or something like that for safelite to replace it.

ViciouZ 06-10-2012 08:56 AM

Won't be claiming to insurance - It will cost under less then my deductable so I'll just foot the bill. Having replaced tomorrow.

I thought insurance companies usually waive the deductible for windshield repairs .... or is that only for chip repair?

Some might - But not policy. :(

Next Austin area meet = ???

Zaggeron 06-13-2012 06:56 AM

The next regularly scheduled meet is Austin Cars & Coffee in Leander -- JUly 1. We may meet before that as well as some folks did last Friday at Rudy''s.

Pintsize725 06-13-2012 09:15 AM

I'm always in for Friday or Saturday meet ups. Who else wants to meet up before July C&C?

^^ Hey man I noticed in your sig that you have 4.08 gears. How does that work with the syncro rev? Do you just have to drive with it off or what?

I could maybe meet before the C&C on Saturday if it was in the afternoon. My Sunday commitment is about to end so hopefully I can start coming to more C&Cs.

ViciouZ 06-13-2012 02:10 PM

Time and date and ill see what I can do. I work nights so anything past ten makes it difficult. Has anyone checked out that k1 speedway? Maybe one day a few of us could park the Zs outside and race on the track? Just a suggestion cause I'm lookin at checking it out.

The better one for speed is down in Kyle. Just an oval but karts that hit 65 mph. :tup:

ViciouZ 06-13-2012 02:20 PM

I seen that when I lived in san Marcos. Never could find out times though either or of any of you wanted to do something like that id be down. Deff down for anything really. One of the reasons I was looking at k1 apparently they have a league with points. I used to race so it really caught my attention.

I'm down. I'll be in South Texas this weekend, though. :ugh2: Maybe next Friday? The weather is nice... around 8pm is perfect time for a drive, food, drinks, whatever.

No, I leave it on. As long as you're down shifting while decelerating.. The difference isn't noticeable. If you down shift to accelerate... It's a little rough, but not as rough as if the Synchro Rev was off. I'll let you test drive it as I'm sure we will run in to each other at a meet soon enough!

65mph in a go-kart?!...:icon14: I have raced go-karts in Las Vegas similar to the K1 karts and they seemed super fast. Maybe we should go to K1 first... Baby steps!

I think I can attend this one -
North
Maybe Sam's Boat off Braker. We could always park across the street at the hotel.

Not a big fan of seafood, but it looks like the menu has something I can eat.

Just an option - I figured we would be looking for a place up north since I'm the lone ranger in the south :(

That sounds like a better idea

Windshile replaced, but the guy cracked the outer plastic piece that covers your drivers side A pillar. He paid for the part, which should be in tomorrow. Can't say I ahve ever had this much bad luck with a vehicle..

Maybe I should sell it and buy a GTR....:happydance:
