[QUOTE=BillLee;9208740]cant you do that through i-drive?

Yes. Settings/Lighting, and for Sherwood: you can program your hotkeys (1-6) to jump straight to Settings/Lighting.

Is anyone going to Critical Mass tonight?

Other than that, does anyone here trailride? I ride Terry Hershey and Sabine Trail often.

I hate cyclists sometimes... I got stuck behind a biker on single-lane West Alabama the other day for so long (because he wouldn't move off the street) that a cop pulled me over after he got tired of following me at 10mph for several minutes, LOL.

Anyone know some good roads to go driving on? I feel like I can never really let my car loose in this town....

though I "raced" an e36 m3 yesterday, obviously not even close to a contest, within the end of 2nd gear from a 35 mph run, there were buslengths between us. Really cool guy and I definitely love the M cars

Youll definitely have go out of Houston to find some decent roads. There's a bunch of nice roads down at Iowa colony heading towards Houston MSR. Also there's a track event at MSR in April.

I've done this drive back in my S2000 days and it was a lot of fun, fairly close by Houston too

Might as well drive to Austin and make a weekend trip out of it!

Also, anyone know good places for an amateur photo shoot? 3000 Crawford and the Edwards 24 parking garage are all I've got.

IancoleTX · 03-28-2011, 08:39 AM

Seriously the roads anywhere around H-town cannot even compare to Austin or the hill country. It's just too damn flat lol.

NaNo_F1 · 03-28-2011, 10:23 AM

I drove one time to Galveston and took a ferry to some other beach. A day trip there would be worth it just to take pictures of a ferry full of bimmers!

affordable auto glass, in the hillcroft and 59 area - I have an e90 so it might be a different price - the best quote I got for OEM glass was from Safelite for $350
