Brownsville/Corpus Christi area

im most likely going to be moving down there in the summer after school to finish up my last years of college and staying with some family. ive been down a couple times but only in the "winter" months unforuenetly none of my cars have a/c since im from this cold *** place lol, so i got my 85 fb and 93 ranger with no a/c but 20% window tint on each, so guys is this gonna be hell on me or what? what are the summer time daily temps like? hell? lol

also i wanna know whats goin on down there as far as rx7 owners around the areas, race tracks close by, any cool racing shops or rx7 shops, anything i should know bout cops and how they do **** down there?


thanks

Corpus is humid, and hot, and did I mention humid? 100% humidity is common. 100 degree weather is not uncommon either, and then you have the drainage. The drainage system for the city is 50yrs old and isn't enough for how large the city has gotten. Do not park your car in low lying areas unless you like water in the floorboard </3 It may not always be raining, but there is hurricane season, and then you'll know what I'm talking about when I say the drainage system in corpus is terrible. Good luck!
