That's not too bad. Now if Chuck and Billy would just put theirs up... :P

And you have to show up to win. It seems there are alot more aircooled than water cooled interested...

I got that feeling in my gut that it is going to a watercooler, They could all be aircoolers except one watercooler and it would still win.

what the hell is the deal with VW bailing on their heritage, except when they brought the new beetle out, It seems that even though Ford, Chevy, (and maybe Chrysler) have no issues with showing roots even if only for a dollar, you'd think VW would sit back and take notice.



sorry that turned into a rant.

I think we're leaving from Eric's shop... I guess we need to nail down the time etc. Eric, how long will it take to get from your shop to the VW dealer?

According to Google Maps, it's 12.5 miles, which should take about 18 min. So let's plan to leave at about 2 or so, so that way we have time for people to show up a bit late. How does that sound?

We can either take 518 down to Yost/Scarsdale through Pearland, or take the feeder of Beltway down to 45.

That sounds good to me, give us plenty of time. Should be fun. I'll remember my camera this time too :?
