Is that you?

Just wondering how many people here...Austin area, drive their Camaro daily?
I often see a few on my way to work and back home, and always wonder if that person is on the forum.
I drive mine (Black 1LE) on a daily basis 42 miles round trip, and these past few days have been non-traction days in the rain!

Hi, I'm in South Austin but I don't daily mine. Mine is a black SS, but (regret) not 1LE. In my drives, I occasionally see a nice looking camaro but not too many. Often surprised at how few are SS, and it's super rare that i see a ZL1. Not even many at the COTA cars and coffee (and us camaro owners need a better presence there ;-) I get lost in all the 5.0's there on the occasion that i do go, lol).

I'm liking that Orange Jade!
I was going to attend COTA back in March, but the price seemed too high at almost $600 a day.
I might do the drive to Cresson where it's much cheaper, but then again the track surface is not the same and I'll need to drive my car there.
I've seen a nice White ZL1 the other day...gave him the and he revs his motor..
I assume that was a hello as we were going in opposite directions.

MSR Houston is not that far from you and probably closer than Cresson. That pic I posted is from there and it's usually $185 but I'm definitely going to bite the big one and knock COTA off my bucket list someday.

Well MSR sounds like a great option, I may need to check that place out.
COTA is nice and has a long sweeper...it's more like a double apex, and two nice straights...but for $600 it will have to be for a special occasion or with gathering.
Thanks for the heads up on MSR!

Had a nice Hyper Blue 1LE with dark taillights throw a rev at me on Enfield today. If you're on here, your car is sharp.
