I was up in New Braunfels last weekend to hit the river, rained like hell that weekend too. HWY 46 was closed, had to detour through San marcos to get to 35 down to the river

Stuff that makes the ground all wet and slippery and makes your car look like crap, especially if your car is black because of the spots it leaves. It's actually pretty badass though otherwise.

My t-tops leaked during heavy rain storms this morning. They've never done that before. So I'm not too fond of rain right now either.

yea it sucks, its been raining in Central and South Texas on and off for like two weeks straight.

I went to get the tags on my Jeep today and saw a Chevy P/U stalled and flooded, I took a video as I drove by.

I hate the rain, especially here in Mosquito city AKA Corpus Christi

Yup i must admit I have never seen us get this much rain.

I'm hesitant to even take the car out for fear of messing up the opti crap with as flooded as the roads have been.

All the lakes are below average here, driest summer I have ever seen. Looks like Texas stole our rain.

I washed my car weeks ago, and it still looks very clean only a little dusty. People around here are getting plenty of track time.

I want to hit the track, cause I've never been down a 1/4 track yet. Except it is raining out at OSW like slowmofo has stated, and its a 2 1/2 hour drive or so for me. FL is a pain in the *** right now, I don't have a garage to work in either.
