I think most of us TX folks are in Houston and Dallas. I think there are a few in Corpus as well. You are a bit too close to the equator for my warm blooded self.

Where abouts are you Houston folks located? I'm near Jersey Village (FM 1960 & Jones Rd) and my friend with a '99 is just west of Tomball off 249.

Depending on where you guys are at maybe we can gather on our own sometime.

HMC is mostly "cheese and wine" if you want to meet some of the other miata folk go to the monthly autoX with us.

Mmmkay, who's going this Friday? I'm planning on it. As for the "cheese and wine"... I like both of those things... but I also like burgers and beer... and turbos and ghetto mods...

Just show up. You'll meet more turbo miata owners by showing up than you will by staying home

I won't be going to another hmc meeting... I went to one a few years back and was annoyed as hell for 2 hours, then bored out of my mind for another 2 before I said **** it and left.

Screw you guys, if you want pics then show up and take yer own.

Saying "nobody I like goes to these things, so I'm not going" is kinda like saying "nobody goes there anymore, it's too crowded." If you want cool Miata owners at these things, then show the f*** up.

I have a little driving route planned out near Houston... may go run it this weekend. If it's cool, then I'll organize a little drive for us
