Texas Proteges
 
I can see there is a lot of people that like (love) their Proteges, but are there any in Texas?

gottacatchup August-26th-2004 11:58 AM

Damn straight there are.

davens August-26th-2004 09:42 PM

I wouldn't say I love my Protege...I'm awfully fond of it though.

loozisprotege August-26th-2004 10:37 PM

Sho nuff, that would be me right here in houston... love mine.

Bellydawg August-27th-2004 06:43 PM

Houston here. My P5 is like a mistress according to my wife.

hughes412 August-29th-2004 05:43 PM

Good to hear from you all. I think it would be cool to set up some kind of get together, Im up for any place. I have had my car for a year but just recently started to mod it. (Finnaly gave up on the corvett, have to wait for the kid to get a little older). I would like to see that B&M shifter in a car be for putting 200 down. What do yaw think?

the B&M is awsome, well worth it. An easy install to I'd say go for it.

hughes412 September-17th-2004 04:16 PM

If we could get some people in on it Im game, I havent had a road trip in a long time. We need to pick a time and place, hopfully before it gets to cold!

Sir Nuke September-24th-2004 02:04 PM

I am just south of houston a little ways....out PAST sugarland.....near Wharton if you know where that is.

hughes412 September-24th-2004 08:09 PM

I guess the ? to ask is who is willing to drive and who aint! I'll drive H town or Big D. Our you all can come to Austin and I can show you around! I personally have had to much experiance in Dallas! But there are a lot of good winding roads here! Let me know. Hopfully the exh. and rings will be on before this happens

Jeremy Martin September-28th-2004 08:04 AM

I'm in Oklahoma, if it's cool if Okie's tag along I'd drive to Dallas, or maybe Austin. Just got my 03 2 weeks ago and I'd like to see what it can do

hughes412 September-29th-2004 12:47 PM

Any of the Dallas guys know a place that we could meet, restruants, parks maybe BBQ (that way we don't bug any one!). I sure thought there would be a better response to this.
ps
As long as OU losses this year you can come! Jokin
Hell I don't care, the more the better.

Jeremy Martin October-1st-2004 06:11 AM

Long who?
 
Oh no, come on guys, you don't really think that UT, Tech, or A&M will actually win this year right? :bt:

hughes412 October-2nd-2004 08:31 AM

HUSH YOUR DIRTY MOUTH!!! I GOT 200 that UT Beasts OU! Ou hasn't done anything like the did last year.
Go eat soap you filthy little boy! lol

Jeremy Martin October-4th-2004 05:33 AM

How about a 12 pack of some fine Texas brew? I'll even give you 3 points.

hughes412 October-4th-2004 08:26 AM

Your on, but the winner has to drive to the lossers place! Hope you get good gas milage.LOL.
I don't know Ut has wooped every one sofar even if it has been a ugly woopin! I guess well see in 6 days, I started praying last night.

Jeremy Martin October-4th-2004 09:43 PM

Deal. :bt:
I get 30mpg when I don't have my foot in it. So it shouldn't take more than a tank to get down there. I do always haul ass on the stretch between Waco and Austin though. It always seems like everyone is doing 90mph, even in the slow lanes. I love it.

hughes412 October-5th-2004 08:19 PM

Well I guess you were telling the truth about coming down here or you wouldn't have known about the austin waco autobon!! I like that strech!!

futbol_stud October-8th-2004 03:44 PM

OU only wins cause all their players are from texas!!! my name is julio i am originally from ennis(south of dallas on I45) but live in tyler now and i love my pro too!

Phantom Cruiser October-8th-2004 04:21 PM

Oh god, stop talking about football and start talking about cars! Please!

hughes412 October-8th-2004 04:26 PM

Phantom, You can only tell us what to do if OU wins untill then HOOKEM!!!! lol

I tried to talk about cars here but there aren't enough Central Tx pro owners here. Austin is dead!!

Nice to here there is another happy PRO owner Futbol

Jeremy Martin October-10th-2004 08:34 PM

My frosty Brew
 
For my winnings I would like a nice cold 12 pack of Fat Tire. It can be purchased in many fine and not so fine retail outlets in and around the Dallas area. I have never looked in Austin although I'm sure it's there too.

OU - 12
Texas -0

5 years in a row. :blue:

hughes412 October-10th-2004 09:53 PM

Well I guess I owe you! I will pay up, But I will have to wait for a long weekend. And you'll have to put me up for the night. You no LONG drive and all.
Fat tire, good choice, the only dark beer I drink.
Now about the game, White is just a better QB. We were out coached again. But I have to say some good will come out of it. There will be getting rid of Gregg Davis finnally.

Jeremy Martin October-11th-2004 05:54 AM

White is a great QB, but he didn't have one of his best days in the air.
I think Mack has Stoops figured out pretty much, he just can't find anyone to make the plays to stop him.
How do you feel about the possibility of the game rotating schools when the contract is up in five years?
Phantom, this is kind of car related because we could possibly be driving our cars further to the game :bt:

hughes412 October-11th-2004 08:04 AM

I think it will suck! Look at how much money Dallas will loose. I don't care that its in TX all the time but there is a tradition here. a 100 yrs worth. OU just wants to get in on the money part of it so thay can pay Stoops!
A def coordinator is what stopped OU, not Brown. By now you I know you have heard us UT fans say we want new coaches. Its not because Browns a bad one, he just aint worth the money we pay him. He will never will the BIG ONE! He doesn't have the fight in him. Oh well next yr. Untill thin heres to OU :cheers:
But what a game!! :boink:

futbol_stud October-12th-2004 02:06 PM

oh it was a crappy game, that fresman for OU, you know peterson from TEXAS!! ran all over the defense. and white is an alright QB. o'well fat tire is an excellent choice i would have gone with corona, i guess its a mexican thing:rolleyes:

hughes412 October-12th-2004 04:50 PM

You got to be crasee!! He didn't run all over us! He go to good runs that made up 100 of yards. Our D was good! We did hold them to 12 pts. Let me ask whos your team?
And no it aint a mexican thing, when Im in my chill mood I hit the CORONA!!! :bt:

TurboZX3 October-12th-2004 11:05 PM

rbprotegelx October-17th-2004 01:21 AM

just saw this thread and i was curious..was this for a plan of meet or for the football and hokey..lol.


anyways, there was a plan for a meet but it got cancelled, theres a nopi race wars right now till sunday oct 17 at ennis..i was there earlier and the car show part was only two protege. a white one with houston import thing on the side (p5) and a black dx sedan. wish there was more.
also on the part of representing different areas in texas im representing DFW (dallas fort worth)..AND YES I LOVE MY MAZDA.. i have a converted 97 mazdaspeed protege, a 03.5 blue speed protege, a 98 mazda MPV es and back in the Philippines i have a 93 323 glx with 1.6l engine.. i gues i can say ive never driven any other brands.lol

futbol_stud October-18th-2004 10:41 AM

man i should have posted something about the nopi drag wars. i am from ennis and i was there for a little while, i ended up doing some stuff and never went back. i own a black dx sedan but i wasn't showing. i actually parked outside. maybe next time!

hughes412 October-18th-2004 02:36 PM

Every on that has post on this thread needs to drive to Waco the weekend of 30 and we can get together! Or something like that! We need to meet, we can do it somewhere in the middle to cut down drive time. we could go to the east so houston guys can join us. We need to do this befor it gets cold.

futbol_stud October-18th-2004 05:43 PM

im in school here in tyler but that sounds cool. i would like to meet other protege owners who love their car as much as i do. the next time that i will be in ennis or around the metroplex will be the 5,6,7 of november for my b-day. but hell even if we had to meet in the cold it wouldn't bother me. i've got a jacket and a nice heater in the pro:blue: let's do it!

Specture October-18th-2004 09:58 PM

im in waco and im all for a meet.....

hughes412 October-19th-2004 02:00 PM

Thats 3, Waco is only 1hr 20min from me. How far from Tyler? May be we could all meet in the middle. any one els?

futbol_stud October-19th-2004 02:46 PM

well it would actually be closer if i were to tavel from ennis. from tyler it would be between 2-3 hours. but i dont know exactly from ennis. ennis is about 20 min north of corsicana. ill actually be moving back during december and i'll have lots of time before i start the fire academy in january. someone propose a date, damnit!!:wee:

hughes412 October-19th-2004 03:47 PM

Well November 6 is definitely out for me; UT plays OU State at home so I’ll be at the game. We could meet on the 7TH. He Specture do you think you might have the time to find us a place to meet? Maybe plot out a course to drive. We could do like we did in San Antonio. We meet at a park first talked for an hour or so and then went for a drive. We went to hooter to eat and then called it a day.
It took about 5hrs total.
That was pretty good but I would have liked to have done some more driving, I have to admit it was pretty cool with the 6 or 7 of us trolling down the free way. We definitely got peoples attention. It would be cool to get more people in this one.
