Re: (00mofo)
Long time no see guys, I've been busy with work/boy scouts/soccer/party's, not sure I can make it out anymore. At least until winter is over, car is in hibernation, plans for more mods are in session, plus with pics in a mags and a feature coming up, I can't afford to take any chances on messing up my pride and joy.

Since I drove out the other night and saw 3 parked cops in 3 fast sections and two days later a friend of mine called me to tell me he narrowly missed a couple of cops parked in different spots.

werd i went though there on Friday and theres alot more sherrif's cars out there now.. But i only saw them once you enter volente but no where on LCR..
I know in the past that cops like to come out there like once or twice a month just to scare people..
I mean almost all of our cars could out run a cop on LCR ..

The police have 10x more driver training than the most of us. They have fast cars and they know very well how to drive them. I'm sorry but most people suck at driving regardless of how good they think they are. Not to mention the police radio ahead to their homies and block you in. There is only one way in and one way out of Lime Creek.
Not to mention, once again I took a slow cruise up to our truck shop on 1431 and found 3 patrol units on the drive along Volente/Lime Creek.

Got a huge ticket today 
I got out of work today around 1ish i figured id go cruise around in the talon. Wound up on LCR just haveing some fun then bam a ******* motorcycle cop.. So i figuered i could probaly out run him though the twisties so i act like i dont see him hit his lights .. Then about two miles or so up the road I run into a police cruiser blocking the road . So i stop , Bs my way out of avading a traffic stop and i get a wreckless driving ticket..
Oh well guess no more LCR , guess well have to find another good road to run though....

Re: (Slow_Boy)

so much for LC being "ok" to cruise down....only place I can think of is southwest parkway,.....but thats usually monitered pretty well,.....and its prolly pretty damn far from you guys,...
anyone else got any ideas?

Re: (civais)
have fun. A loose dirt/gravel track is 100x more expensive than you'd think. Once you get into paving, you're insane. Not to mention You'd need well over 50 acres to make anything worth driving. I've done my homework on this one many times over.

Wudup fella's? I'm back onboard. It's been almost 2 months since I've really posted or been here. I injured myself moving so I was at home bored out of my mind w/ no cable or net & not really being able to move well. I'd like to come out & chill w/ ya'll again. I can't this weekend as I will be in Houston, but the following weekend I will be out if ya'll will....

This is 2nd or 3rd hand info SO take it as such: I have a friend who lives across the Lake from Volente (right near Carlos n' Charlie's) he heard Volente Beach residents etc had complained enough that enforcement along LCR and 1431 has been doubled or tripled.

someone has already done that: When you are flying into Austin coming in from the east, about 2minutes before touchdown, look out the left side of the plane - its nicknamed "The Driveway" Its on private land, some guy built it apparently to "test" his cars. Its pretty pimp. Good luck figuring out how to get out there/on it...
and off topic....i don't s'pose any of you are interested in an autocross??

yeah he races an S60R touring car currently. Our mechanic went out there and played around in his Mosler Photon and his Zondas. He's got an ungodly collection of cars and you will more than likely never see the inside of his property. Security as you can imagine is intense.

The big H-T thing was for ya'll an AX (hosted by SPOKES - I'm a BoD member and the event master for the 20th) and then a drag and show thingy....but the owner backed out on ya'll or something or other. (He's a sketchy character)
Anyway, because we pay him lots of money, he lets us play on his lot on select Sundays. Nov 20th is our last AX until next year. It'll be at SAR, there will be nothing to do with drags, infact we're contractually obligated to not go anywhere NEAR the strip, or the stands.
But we are having an event, nad since you asked for more info go here:
http://www.spokes.org/Bash/index.html
To make it easier on yourself the day of, you can register here:
http://www.spokes.org/Members/MembersLogin.aspx
Several of our National's contenders will be giving ride alongs, tips, tricks, and the liek to first timers, novices (less than 1 yr of AXing), new SPOKES event attendees, and so on. We'll have a photog to take pics, and the courses will change midway through the day... you're total time for the event will be your fastest run on both courses added together
Any other questions, email me, or post 'em here?
