Austin Area TW Chapter (all gens welcome, even T4Rs; heck, just make it a Toyota and we're good)

LOL, it was a complete coincidence. My son and I showed up to dodge cones and next thing I know there were Tacos there.

 

Suuuuuuup​

 

Do you have a Tacoma?

 

No, but he passed out in the ditch next to the taco truck last night.

Not our first time

Never considered a track-day for the Taco but that looks like fun.

 

They also have an "off road" coarse as well but once they saw us having too much fun on it that was it

 

Those were the good Ole days man

 

I'm looking to get a front and read bumper powder coated. Does anyone have any experience with Powder ATX?

 

That's who I use. Ask for James, good guy. They'll say a few weeks out but usually about a week on my stuff. 10/10 would recommend

 

So bummed. I ordered new OME leafs last week, everything except one leaf pack arrived yesterday, it should have all arrived on Wednesday. Looks like one of the leaf packs was "lost" in Dallas. Had to open a case today with UPS so they can try and find it but I don't have high hopes.

 

Anyone built a detached shop/garage and can give me a realistic cost expectation? Never done anything like this before and it’s also my first time realistically house shopping. Needs normal power and a couple 220 sockets. Would like a lift in the future. Worried the Taco will soon be too large to fit in a normal garage might as well kill two birds one stone

 

Concrete will be your largest expense. A lift needs a certain amount of concrete below it to support, so knowing which lift you want is important. Best for electric is to have another feed from the power company fed in so you can have a higher rated panel dedicated to the garage. That way you could potentially install comfort cooling as well. What size building you looking to do?

 

Hey guys quick question. Where am I supposed to hook the ebrake cable up on this new leaf? And I'm assuming the leaf pack with the negative goes facing the front on the passenger side.

 

How did I not know about this?? The only place I know out here to take the truck is Hidden Falls and OffCamber in Llano. How much did it cost? Shoot I'd still take it out to the paved track too

 

@CedarPark Great question. I am starting to research the same thing. I am looking to do something around a 24'x36' size. Also looking into a 2-post or a scissor lift.

 

Sorry I'm no help but interested to hear how these new ones affect your ride once you get em going!

 

I'll let you know. I have an older model of ome but they are clunky.

 

Anyone been out to offcamber? It's the first I'm hearing of it.
