Thinking if the weather is nice I'll haul the ol' Alfa out to The Oasis Sunday morning for Cars & Coffee. I think a few of the local Opponauts are planning to go but I thought I'd toss the idea out there for you lot. 10 am to 1 pm. I'll probably head out by myself then have the wife and kids join for brunch later. Just an FYI.

from what I hear the turn out is WAY BIGGER then some expected .. so it may be worth the drive. I'm just going to see the new Viper up close .. I keep driving past this guy everyday and I work over in the "rich" part of town and he lives these so I would expect to see him there at C&C

I'll cruise if the car is feeling healthy. Fo sho. I think the problem is the idle valve donut. It's staggering below 1200 (fuel filter) but I can't set it higher without adjusting the throttle stop, which can cause the dreaded plenum pop. Have to find some time Saturday to tune. Could probably use new spark plugs too. I mean, why not?

There's an orange on black one somewhere in town. It's just a rumor though. I'd count on some high end machines though. On MoPac last week a brand new F12 Berlinetta sucked up behind me. Followed by a V12 Vantage. Followed by a R8 V10 spyder. All these rich mofos moving into town and I bet they want to show off.

Yea , I got some NGK "RACE" plugs but Idk how the car will fee about them .. The stock plugs are supposed to be Copper so iridium plugs ? idk .. I'm thinking the hotter plug will help burn off some of the extra fuel my car is sending to the motor..
If I wasnt going to rip this thing out around Tax return time I'd be right there with you trying to get it to run the best I can ..

I grew up in WLH. Live just SW of Houston now.
Lakeway has grown up a lot since I went to HS (early '90s). It was nice then, but it wasn't nearly as nice as it is now.

One of my friends from HS is a cop out there. I haven't spoken to him in a while, but from the pics he has taken in his full gear for patrol (damn near riot gear), I won't argue with your point.
And yes, there is some new money out there. A lot of it.

I feel like younger money is coming to Lakeway which is nice .. It seems like alot of these people who have been here forever are passing away .. So Lakeway has actually got pretty damn flash in the last year .. I went to Jimmy Johns and parked the Datassun walk inside to get greeting by a bunch of guys digging the 280z then I turn around after I got my sandwhich and a aventador backed in right next to me ..
GTR's , New Stingrays are the norm out here .. however on Friday afternoons all the old folks meet at sandeez with the classic cars .. even saw a morgan there last friday .

I'm from and live in Austin, off of 620 where it meets 45, right on the edge of round rock. Long story short, I'm actually moving to Arlington for the spring semester, until I return to Missouri for school.
If I'm not stuck in Arlington on Sunday, I'm definitely going to try to show.
