Historically the Friday night even has always been a big karting meet at dromo1 i beleive. i'm down, but I would need a ride from the Doubletree, I'm not renting a car until Sunday.


One a related note, if anyone wants to goto Magic Mountain (the amusement park, not a sexual metaphor) on Sunday let me know.

Didn't you get your fill with Astroworld?

same stellar management team that ran that place in the ground is running Magic Mountian.

I grew up going to AstroWorld and it makes me sad when I think about it being torn down.

Astroworld (pours out a 40) I actually worked (Rides/Pyrotech) out there as a kid, 3 of the best years of my life. Being 16-18 and possessing "a little bit of game" as the kids would say made picking up females as easy as shooting fish in a barrel.

Yea, I live in Bellaire now, so I pass by that vacant patch of land often. I still get pissed about it. Actually I did hear about Del and some others moving out there. Yoou know shortly after the deal was worked out to scrap AW, the old CEO and his cronies got ousted, sadly it was too late for Hofheinz's dream.

I miss Texas Cyclone most of all, as a former member of ACE I have ridden 100s of coasters and I swear that Cyclone was one of the most intense rides from start to finish. Tillman Fertitta has built a new woody out on the Kemah boardwalk however, maybe I will give it a try.

BTW - Marvin Zindler died.

MAAAAARVIN ZINDLER Eeeeyewitness newsssssss!!

Holy snickies, I haven't even thought about that guy in 20+ years and yet his trade mark sign off spills out of my mouth like my own name!

I just happen to be attending Magic Mountain on the Sunday also...

We only have 1 rollercoaster in my whole state and its REAL lame...

So i'm gonna freak when I get to MM.

Who needs Magic Mountain when you have Santas Village.

But on a serious note. I can probably give you a ride KillJoy if I have room in the Mazda3. But that would mean no shots for me if I'm going to be a DD.

So is there a plan for drinks after the races?

RedR1

iTrader: (5)

well you gotta win to earn the shots (Yes, the trash talking has commenced!)

Yea, i was planning on having drinks with yall and what not afterwards, regardless of the race. More or less just hang out with you guys and get to know yall better. Heck i was thinking grab dinner at a place with an open bar after the races and what not.

I don't know the area at all though, so that'd be up to you guys. I'm all for whatever

I'm up for a beverage or three!

If anyone says "Fosters" you get a punch in the mouth. (we export that **** because Aussies don't drink cats ****!)

You wish. They would probably all whoop you on the track anyways.

RedR1

iTrader: (5)

Dude, after the race, we'll kick back a brew. They have this nifty stuff, you may have heard of it. . . it's called Fosters!

A loooong time joke, like here in the states, the foster logo was "Fosters, Austrailian for beer"

However when we drank it for the first time, we spit it out and was like "Fosters, Australian for queers"

We'll definitely have a good time though. do you know when your plan arrives?

cool_as_crap

They can whoop me anytime, anywhere

WAS:12A

iTrader: (4)

Yeah the girlfriend and I are flyin in on late Thursday night, picking up the hire car and then drivin out to the Doubletree to stay.

Ha Fosters!, we did the same thing over here with Budweiser "the king of beers" bullshit!!!!.... that crap tastes like Fosters (ie Cats ****!)

MGD and Coors are OK. So is "Fat Tyre" and i think its called "Tommyknockers" if your around the Colorado area, get on it.

(looks down at beer gut...Man I gotta cut down on my beer!)

Have you checked with the SoCal RX Club? LC and others usually put together a little go-karting action Friday night at DROMO1 near Anaheim stadium of K1 (can't remember). Anyway, either way is fine with me. Just want to make sure that two groups aren't planning competing events without knowledge of each other's efforts. Should be a blast!!!!

WAS:12A

^^^ good point.

I'm up for getting my **** whooped at either track...

RedR1

iTrader: (5)

I didn't know that I left a thread in the 7stock subforum. I'll look around in the socal area of the forum and see what i can find

Heisenberg

It does not matter to me either way. Dromo1 is closer to my house anyways. I dont know about K1 but if its your first time at Dromo1 you have to sit through a stupid little movie before you race so I would plan on trying to get there 20 min early.

Plus they dont take kindly to rubbing and having a few drinks before the races (dont ask me how i know)

Sounds like the "Best of" the lounge rats are showing up for some fun.
