I put down $200 for something i don't need and if the spots are full....why not have someone send me a check for $200 and they can keep mine. Rather than me ask for Eric to mail my check back (i mean if he wouldn't mind he can) or me spend $30 to cancel the check.

I see, guess the list is full? I'll wait for the Tulsa or somewhere closer.

It doesn't work like that. If someone wants to tune, they need to send in a non-refundable deposit.

I've never mailed anyones deposit back and don't plan to. It's not my money, it's Steve's.

You're not the only one who's sent in a deposit and hasn't been able to make the tuning trip. Your deposit will be held until you're ready to tune.

I haven't heard from spot to pyro_racer_0016 since friday. If I haven't heard back from him by tommorow, I can give you his spot.

I'm very hesitant in helping you in any way since you've continuously bad mouthed me.

I can forgive, though.

I would have mine tuned but I already bought a commander and I don't think Lightspeed is going to give me back my money.

Did I bad mouth you? If so than I'm sorry, I want to tune my FD but haven't little trouble with the injectors. I bought a set of 1200cc that turn out to be bad and now 1300cc that the seller haven't ship it nor heard from him since I paid. Let me update on the list.

I haven't heard from pyro_racer_0016 so the spot is yours if you want it. Have you paid Steve your deposit already?

You'll get tuned on sunday. I'm not accepting deposits through paypal. I'm only accepting checks made out to Steve Kan.

Here is my address: (Make sure to make check out to Steve Kan)

EC
1320 East Main St.
Belleville, IL 62220

Let me know when you'll be sending the check. (Tommorow?)

They had 110 sunoco gas there last time. I'm not sure if it will be available this time (I pm'd the owner just now). If not, there are plenty of places locally that sell race gas on saturday.

Time is expected

I decided a few months back that I'm not going to get tuned again (I'm happy where I'm at). So, I've given my spot to Dr. Hagner. Most of you know him, he's got the very clean white FD.

Anyhow, I'm still excited to get this organized and have some fun

most likely like last time you'll have to buy c16 ahead of time...but last time they had 110 aviation fuel (leaded)
C16 was brought in (pre-paid)
PUmp gas from the gas station at the end of the lane.

Phil, you'll be number one on the list. I'm going to get a list together of the order. It should read somewhat like the one listed. I won't be there until 6pm on saturday so I'd like to see some cools cars get tuned then . Also, the VP C16 can only be purchased from a local shop. Shoot me a pm tommorow and I can get the address tommorow at work.

Jamespond, we'll start tuning on sunday at 10am.

Bond, sounds good...... Glad you kept with it! I'm anxious to see that thing scream! FYI: I got my 2 step boosting 18psi with the help of Steve. We'll talk about it!
