I think it'd make a good event next year- find somewhere in between where the drive would be too long to do friday afternoon and then dyno on Saturday. Maybe somebody could come up with a shop that's willing to work a better deal than what I got. Especially if we could get some media coverage.

I know they've got a wideband, but doubt it's included in the $50. I'll ask when I confirm the participants.
What's the LC1 doing? nothing?

I'd be up for one next year as well. Long as it takes place before I go home for the summer.

Rob, if you happen to talk to the dynolab guys again, would you ask them if they'd be willing to aquire MAP and WB with the run, and if so, what type of extra charge it would be. Please don't make a special call or anything, just if you call them back to comfirm or something.

BTW guys, the Snap on 230V 250A MIG is the ****, once I figured out the temp and wirespeed. I made myself one big *** ugly weld! Got one more to do today, hopefully.... I have no formal welding instruction, my only experience is welding on 2 exhaust sensor bungs.
I'm happy to share, and will attempt a weld for you, or you're welcome to come and try.

Thanks
Ben

I'll ask and get back to you... and the thread.

That's a nice tool Ben. Big volts are the way to go. I've figured out a way to get 220 to my garge, so that'll set me up for a nice tig when I retire. In the meantime it'll be a place to plug in a "real" compressor.

Harbor freight sells a little buzzbox tig for like $250. Some guys use them and come out with some decent looking welds. Downsides: Scratch starts, no pedal, not liquid cooled. I would buy one if I was a broke *** and wanted to do some tig in my garage when I was living off unemployment with 5 kids a fat grouchy wife.
Otherwise I would hope I could get a nice one before retirement, Mig suffices for most jobs though. Man I love welding.

I'm sure we could figure something out. There is a couple dynos in knoxville I believe. Air Cooled Classics and ... i can't remember.

Hi again, been busy changing jobs, buying cars and what not.

May 12th as a dyno day? It is SCCA autocross, I am running 1st in the morning and might be able to come after that, maybe even do a pull or three with my locost or tow vehicle for grins and giggles.

So this is official Dynojet facility and we would get prints out of it?

Earliest I could be there would be 1 pm, are you planning to be there at the time?

My guess is it will be an all day venture. Head over after the autoX and if there's time I'm sure you can jump in. The day starts at 9am. - rob
