Anybody from Tulsa/OKC going to the Quad State Meet? If so we should get a cruise together. I plan on going down Friday morning or afternoon to visit my uncle in Dallas before the meet but if everybody else needs to wait I can too. I've never been out of the state by myself so I'd greatly appreciate a group trip.

 

Is anybody from the Tulsa area going?

 

yes, sending you a PM.

 

I am still hoping to be able to make the trip. I cannot say for sure that I am going, only that I have it marked on the calender.
The way gas prices have been going this summer, I don't know if I can even afford the fuel cost, and I averaged over 25MPG on my last D/FW road trip in the car.
Record high gas prices, and oil companies with record profits. I know there is a connection, I just can't figure it out................

 

Holy cow!!! 25 mpg! What I wouldn't give to hit 20....

 

Stop driving so hard and fast I've seen how you drive

 

Ya know, I tried one tank of gas where I kept it under 3750 rpms and I think my gas mileage was even worse! And it's just not fun unless you hear the beep.

 

LOL, and to think, that included making a few laps around Texas Motor Speedway. Yes, on the high banked oval, at about 75-80 MPH.
I'da never thunk an '83 woulda knocked down that decent of fuel mileage, but it does. I wonder what it would do if I learned to lighten up a bit on the throttle????????
BTW, I get 20+ consistantly around town, even with my heavy foot syndrome. But I do tend to keep it under 4K most of the time, cause ya never know when a cop might be within hearing distance. Anything over 4K will get a loud POP out the exhaust, with people ducking for cover.

 

if i go, i will probably go to tulsa and down, shorter/better roads for me (may go with friend too, so we will see) both depends on if our car is done.

 

Very cool! If you decide to come, don't forget to register!!

 

Yeah. 25mpg is amazingly good. I doubt I get anywhere near 20. All the northern groups of cars could meet somewhere near the OK/TX border on the way.

 

Hit us with a link (in this thread) to register. I know it's buried somewhere in the main thread, but I had to cut exspenses, and the DSL was one of the first to go. DialYUCK takes forever to hunt the link.
Thanks

BTW, I need it myself, still haven't registered.

Hey, i'm from the rx8 forums and was wanting to see when everyone was going to caravan down to the BBQ from tulsa to Dallas?? either friday night or sat morning, it doesn't matter to me. if you are going then post here what your preference is, can also check out this posting to see what the RX8 guys plan on doing: http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.ph...38#post1022638

 

Bump!

 

A fact of life, when driving on Ok roads............

Rich Politians and rough roads, I know there is a connection, but I have yet to figure it out.

 

A more active thread about the Tulsa area cruise is up at Nopistons here: http://www.nopistons.com/forums/inde...howtopic=54538

Plan is to leave sometime Friday afternoon/evening and return sometime Sunday. Has anybody reserved a room yet? And if so is anybody looking for a roommate to lower the cost?

 

David and Dan may have a room...... I know that you have take your pants off to get into Dan's room.

 

LOL. Yeah. Dan's nickname should be Brick. I don't knwow if anybody will get that though.

 

Ok, the BBQ is less than a week away, any word yet on what time the caravan is leaving Tulsa? Dunno if I will be able to join in the caravan, but I do believe I will be leaving sometime late friday. Already ordered t-shirts and have made plans for a place to stay, even though part of my group may not be able to make the trip.
If all else fails, I will have to leave very early sat morning, but I will make every effort to attend.

 

We'll leave Friday evening. Sometime after 5pm. Probably closer to 6pm. Give 94touring your phone # here and he'll call you when they're ready to go.
