When the Lone Star Round Up Car Show comes to Austin, Texas each year, one of the activities that goes with it is "Cruisin' Congress". Nah, it doesn't compare to what goes on in Detroit on Woodward Ave, but it's a gas anyway. Starts on Thursday night and goes almost non-stop until mid-day Sunday. You'll see just about everything there is to see in the hot rod and custom world, and it the greatest place for meetin' folks from everywhere." Too Low
