Think I might have to sit this one out and just be a spectator. Fundage is too tight to drop another 5k in the car. + I’m Looking for a second fd so in the spring I will have a full on drag car. Ill be down for a tune in the spring. But I don’t think id be ready even by mid nov :tears:

That's mad expensive for some dyno time. How long do you plan on dyno tuning?
I know people at TurboTrix if you want to see if we can keep costs low. Also, I dynoed at New Mother's so let me know if you want me to talk to them. I know Rx7up is tight with Sammy. Maybe pm him to try and work things out. Let's do this before the season is over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't think he would be available for that week. I'm suprised we got this much interest so quickly man. I wasn't expecting to see Steve till next year.

Actually the dyno time isn't really that expensive.....considering it usually costs about $125 per hour to use a dyno plus the setup fee.

The third week of November would work the best for me, I dunno about anyone else. That would be the 19th and 20th. If everyone can agree on this i will give my address out for people who wish to send deposits via the mail and paypal address for people who would rather do it that way. Just so everyone knows if you choose to paypal the deposit it will be $206.50 to cover paypal fees.

Thanks,
Dan

Alright, just spoke with Steve....since there is so much interest we are considering stretching it over 3 days....friday, saturday and sunday November 18th-20th..... Now we just have to figure out who is interested and what day/s we'll have him tuning in DE, NY... It seems like a lot of people don't want to make the trip to Delaware, but I think that we can probably get 6-7 cars done in one day at Car Version.

I usually calculate about 2 hours per car for tuning. If you figure it that way then you're looking at a 14 hour time window for tuning. Sometimes it doesn't take that long though. As long as you come prepared and ready then things should run smoothly.

I'm gonna get with Martin to discuss the tuning schedule further and we will get back to everyone about that. For sure there will be one day at least set for Delaware to accomodate the lower states crowd... MD, VA, DE, lower NJ and PA if anyone is interested.

I'll put up my information later today so everyone can start sending deposits to reserve your spot.

Update:

Sunday?...... Not a problem.... He will have some one open the shop on a Sunday just for you guys and this tuning session only.... It will be closed to the general public, just like every Sunday. So if you guys want to run around in your underwear while Steve is tuning your cars, you can...

Don't you guys feel special.... lol

*PS. Just thought of something..... If you guys can get a couple of more dollars together, maybe I can arrange to have a stripper there......
