Smile RX-Club of Houston April Meeting - 4/10/2012 @ Gabby's BBQ

Greetings all,

It's that time again. We head back to the top of the loop for another great Gabby's meeting. We haven't seen some of you in a while, but we are still seeing more than 20+ members at most meetings so come on our and meet some rotorheads and enjoy some grub.

There is plenty of parking next door to Gabby's so come out and bring a buddy.

Remember we prefer Mazdas, but anything that might interest your not-so-average car guys is always welcome!

Location: 3101 N. Shepherd Houston, Texas 77018

Time: Parking Lot @ 6p --- Food @ 7:30p
(earlybirds are welcome at early as 6, but many don't show until around 7)

Of course. We've actually done events with the Houston Miata Club in the past, but haven't in a while.

Just ignore all the people making fun of your tiny pistons. :P That's just big brother type teasing.

The vert is pretty much in the same condition...needs tires, needs tags, needs insurance...I dont think I'm going to take the risk.

Probably won't make it tonight.

Will be down for the block though as soon as I figure out how to get it home. It needs to go into the RX2.

Well it seems that we've heard from everyone and their brother that isn't coming.

How about people who are actually coming to the meeting tonight?

Should we just cancel the meeting? I'm listening?

I thought this meet was really good. I met some new folks, ate some BBQ and learned a little about tuning. Looking forward to the next one!

It has been experiemented in the past and once a month is the sweet spot for RX Club meeting frequency.
