Octane Fest 2024 is almost here! SAMC is sending three Mustangs this year:

The scenery is gorgeous, the roads are challenging (straight and flat on the desert floor, twisty and hilly in the Davis Mountains), and the evenings are cooler.

Texas Air Museum

The Texas Air Museum boasts a large and varied collection of aircraft, vehicles, uniforms, weapons, and other artifacts that are unique and historical. Of particular note are Katherine Stinson's Bleriot, and many aircraft from the early days of flight.


Come join us to explore the rich history of aviation.


We'll head over to the Trailblazer Cafe after the museum for a fine lunch.
