Sorry for the lack of updates everyone! We’ve been working feverishly to get John’s NSX, Khiem’s FD3S and our other cars ready for this weekend, and also spent many restless nights preparing for our WekFest PreMeet tomorrow night at 8th Wonder Brewery with StickyDilJoe. This is the one meet you do not want to miss. Sven Neer from Neer Music will be spinning awesome tunes at the meet and we are expecting everyone from every coast and are also expecting an excess of 1100+ people. You ready? Okay, here are some details:

AUSTIN PEOPLE ASSEMBLE!

The Austin and Dallas legs will converge here at Moon Tower Inn for badass exotic game hotdogs and Texas handcrafted beer. We’ve had meets here before and can easily accommodate hundreds of cars on the street which is relatively flat. If you are not participating in the Austin/Dallas runs, feel free to meet us here for lunch at 2pm. From here, the actual Premeet is about a mile or so away, so it’s very close. Below is a map of Moon Tower Inn, which is located at 3004 Canal St, Houston, TX 77003.

At 6pm on Saturday, we will allow cars to park at our meet at 8th Wonder Brewery, located at 2202 Dallas St, Houston, TX, 77003. The Mayday Garage crew will be here directing traffic along with our Houston Police Officers. Here we will be serving food from 8th Wonder’s Food truck, Eatsie Boys, and from OUR own food truck, The Rice Box. We will be selling our limited Paul Walker tribute stickers which ALL sales will be donated to his charity, Reach Out World Wide on behalf of Mayday Garage and the city of Houston. It’s important to know that while beers served at 8th Wonder ($3 pints/cups) will be on a CASH ONLY service, the food trucks will accept both cash and cards, so please plan ahead. Bathrooms will be at the meet, but we always suggest a pregame dump before coming, and parking will be on the street.

All of that said, we know some of you will be driving around on some HELLA dumped rides and we will mark every single dip and bump near our meet with large cones. We will also be blocking certain streets (Dallas St is pending), so make sure you follow our map for the safest, most flat road possible to the meet. Although we have made every effort to map out the flattest way possible, this does NOT mean you should speed through, as with any unfamiliar road/street, open your eyes, pay attention, and drive slowly through and your car WILL make it without any scraping. We have tested out the paths with extremely low cars with a 1-1.5″ clearance ourselves, but again, nothing is ever guaranteed. Below is a map of 8th Wonder:

To get to 8th Wonder from I-45 you’ll need to take I-10 East then US-59 as mapped below:
