No kidding, I frequent the domain on weekdays as well for lunch and/or dinner. I'm somewhat of a regular at Jasper's for dinner - they have the best lobster and macaroni and cheese (side dish) in Austin as far as I'm concerned.

For lunch, I tend to hit Gloria's (chicken enchiladas).

I'm usually parked on the "4th" floor in the nearest garage to Jasper's/North's, etc.

My car has to go under for a couple of weeks, new bumper and exhaust, but lets try to get together sometime in the not to distant future for a meet and greet. Also, what happened to TP_IS, koala...?, and some of the others that used to be on here often?
lol yea I'm all the way up north. Not sure what happened to them, lost interest? Not many of us folks in Austin, TX on CL so not sure how successful a meet would be...

And the connections keep on coming. My father is very close friends with the CEO of National Instruments James Truchard.

I also have a few old high school friends, Blake Lindell and Christopher Craik, who work at NI. Perhaps you know them?

ah nice! yep, Dr. T. ask your father to ask Dr. T to give me a hefty pay raise

Don't know either of them. Looks like Blake is a hardware engineer and didn't find any info on christopher.

I think I saw TurbIS's 1IS at the domain today in a garage.

Had black rims, blacked out tail lights, and an "AEM" sticker on the passenger side rear window, parked between levels 3 and 4. I parked maybe 10-20 spaces away.

I figure since you have an "AEM" product in your signature, that might have been your car. Looks pretty sweet in person

Edit: Never mind, wrong car. Looks like TurbIS has a black IS, this one was silver.

The guy that owns the silver one is from Cedar Park I think. He is on isfanatics.com, but not on here. Nice guy from the times that I talked to him. Told him about this site but I guess he hasn't made it over.

I think isfanatics has, on average, 2 people viewing the forums at any given time. It's simply not a well-populated forum. You should definitely push him to come over to CL.

I tried the first day I saw him on there, but I guess to no avail.
