Default TX2K 15 Questions

I was just wondering where some of the after hours activities might be going on in Houston. Are there any hotel hot spots and or road areas where there might be some meet ups?

This is the first 2K event I will be poking around on. I am just very green and trying to garner as much info about the event and after hours. Thanks guys

I don't even think cops are that stupid Seriously though OP look around, Check FB etc. The internet traffic surrounding this event is outrageous. Hell just being at the event and talking to people will yield you what you want to know. Asking a question like that on the internet where the whole world can see will get you nothing but smart *** answers.

Kerry Morvant (kjm) and I use to work at the same John Deere factory in Thibodaux. He claims he is bringing his Datsun… If so I would really like to see you run against him in your Z… any chance that can happen? At the track in front of a lot of people would be best...

Mind if I ask why? I will try my best. The car isn't really set up for the QTR but I'll give it a try if I make it out there Saturday. Isn't he solid rear axle swapped? Also as of today there is a VERY real possibility I won't make TX2K15 this year. My wife is on the brink of child birth and I'm doing everything I can to keep that baby inside! Doc is trying to induce this week so we will see what happens.

In the past Kerry has been "very optimistic" about the performance capability of his toys…

Unfortunately... I broke it and then sold it... the replacement engine has about 500 less hp at this point...

note piston to valve clearance was not adequate...

BTW I will have a 30FT RV setup with all my **** I'm going to try and get there early to claim my territory. If you guys are around come check me out. There are a few other Z guys coming from out of town too. One of which has a 416ci twin 62MM 280 WITH nitrous... Should be interesting.

Most after hours action comes from the "clubs" off of Westheimer and Richmond. The JW Marriott lobby bar is a nice place if you got a grand to 1500 laying around...
