Meet up in MN

6/30 me and some buddys will be having a lil get together at one of the parks near Plymouth. Its not just going to be FDs but there will be a few there. My buddy is also looking at renting a Dyno for a day at a shop near by so everyone can do a few pulls for a very low fee. Its looking like it should be a good turnout and a great way to see what else is out there.

Let me know if your interested.

Sam

I just foud out if we get 5-6 people we can get 3pulls for $50. That will go down if we get more people but only so many people can do pulls in one day.

That definitely sounds doable. You should post a note at www.northstarrotaries.com and www.teamfc3s.com in the Meeting Room for Minnesota. You should be able to shake a few more guys out of the tree. I would love to know what my Turbo FB is pulling.

The name of the Town i'm not sure, but its off of 169 and I think county Rd 81, that i will check on also. The place is over by the Fleet Farm. 15-20 minuts from where we are going to meet. Bakers park off of county rd 9 or Rockford Road. I'm defently looking forward to seeing what my new single does. I'm going to try and talk the GooRoo into coming also with Damian to tune the rotarys. I don't really trust anyone else around here to do that.

Its running pretty good. I am just having a little problem with some random killing. I'm hoping Andy can tune it at 15psi next week.

169 and county road 81...that sounds like S&S Performance in Crystal. I know the shop through the shop I use. S&S is big into carb's and old school V8's and doesn't know much of anything about fuel injection. From what I remember he has a rear-only drum style dyno. Hope you guys (and gals?) enjoy, be there if I could!

From my understanding there are pretty big into DSM's and other imports. But i'm also looking at another place in Rogers that has AWD also. But i need you guys to sign up on the other link so we can have the dyno for sure and get a good price.

A friend of mine in the local Cobra club just went to St. Paul Automotive for a dyno event last weekend and paid about $60/person. Might want to check them out as well.
