Me, Brad (Newbsauce) & Sevan (That7Guy) should all be driving up together. If Dan (Rappadan) gets his **** together maybe he can come up as well for a good tuning.

So far it looks like it is going to be:

turbotim
olderguy
that7guy
newbsauce
brgracer
mach929
braineack

still have not received any definite confirmation from:

snowsurfer03

Anyone else is welcome, even last minute. I'll send out a reminder e-mail/PM this week with a rough schedule (in case people want to come halfway thru the day), contact info, and locations. I'll try to repost here as well in case anyone decides to join last minute.

Okay guys here is the dyno day info for anyone else who would like to join. Please send me a PM/e-mail if you are coming last minute. I will check both Saturday morning before I leave. Estimated arrival times and cell #s would be great as well.

1) Bruce (olderguy), Phil (Mach929) and I (brgracer) will be at the dyno by 9am. Feel free to come anytime in the morning, but the later you come, the more runs you will miss witnessing. We’ll probably be there for at least a couple hours if not more. The address is: ACA Performance, 73 Albe Drive, Suite 1 & 2, Newark, DE 19702. Phone 302-369-0200

2) Lunch will be at Iron Hill Brewery about 5-10 minutes from the dyno. I figure we’ll get here around 12-1pm depending upon how many people dyno and for how long. The address is: 147 East Main Street, Newark, DE 19711. Phone 302-266-9000

3) After a leisurely lunch, depending upon the time, we can either go directly or take a back road drive to the kart racing place around 2pm-ish. If you plan on kart racing, remember to bring a helmet if you have one as you won’t want to use the loaners if you don’t have to. The address is: Midlantic Gran Prix, 4060 N. Dupont Hwy, New Castle, DE 19720. Phone 302-656-5278

Any other questions, suggestions, issues, feel free to shoot me a PM or e-mail. Thanks.

Tom

See you guys there! Don't forget to bring any tools/preset maps to do on the dyno adjustments and helmets for the kart racing (if you have them). Anyone else is still welcome. I'll check PM and e-mail at 7am tomorrow for the last time. Please send your cell # if you are coming last minute. Thanks.
