Austin, TX Owner's Club

Hey y'all!

I've been noticing that on just about every thread on here it seems like about 1/3 of the guys commenting are from the Austin area, so with that I mind I figured it was time someone setup a group so we can meet up and share the 997 love...

Hence, I now present the Austin, TX 997 Owners' Club:
Austin TX 997 Owners' Club Page

Spread the word to any Austin-based 997 owners!

Hmmmm... I'll have to mull over the Facebook side of things, I've avoided it up to now but this may be a good enough reason to join (in a limited way).

I had looked at the official PCA clubs (Houston and Hill Country), but they seem to be largely concentrated away from Austin. This may prove to be a great idea!

Your right, for advanced only, but it's free to go watch. Should be a great time.

Considering it, but still in the CLK BS. Think anyone would notice?

FYI – State Hwy 16 and particularly Hwy 965 near Fredricksburg are really terrific roads. Single lane in each direction w/designated passing zones and 75 mph speed limits. Scenically, kinda like Napa/Sonoma. You'll fall in love w/your car again.

Awesome to see so many responses. Yeah, I've done that drive through Fredericksburg, really a nice drive! For those of y'all from Dallas, I live in Austin, but work in Dallas, so maybe we can arrange a meetup of Dallas folks, too. My goal is to setup meetups at least once a month, talk cars, go for a drive, get some photos, maybe do giveaways and raffles from different vendors.

Dallas here, as well. Do you know of any local groups?

ETA: One suggestion would be to turn it into a discussion group rather than a page to Like. It seems to get people more interactive if they can see who they are speaking with. The group could remain closed and a mod would have to approve joining. Just for those worried about keeping their identities a bit more private.
