If we only get 5, is this going to be on Friday the 18th? Or can we make it for Saturday?
Yeah, It pretty much HAS to be Saturday the 19th, or I'm out. Start new job on 1st, can't request a day off after 2 weeks of work...DAMNIT!

Please let me know what day it will be on. If it's on Saturday, my deposit will be sent today. Thanks.

(Anybody else have a problem with Saturday!?)

well since it seems like we don't have enough people for 2 days then it will be on Saturday the 19th at Car Version 2 in Delaware. Is that a problem for anyone? If we can just get one more person then Steve will come out. Unless people feel like putting up the extra cash.

i'll pitch in the extra cash up to $150, but i'd like a little extra tuning time. in fact, i'd pay for half of another session if i was able to get more time with steve on my car. i'd prefer jersey if possible, but i'm more interested in going as early as possible since i'm scheduled to go on vacation that day and have to drive back to ny and then leave for nc.

Hey may be able to. If we get 5 cars then 6-7 will be on the dyno that day including me and Martin. But if it goes well like last time then we should have extra time at the end of the day. Or maybe we can squeeze it in during the middle of the day.

I need some quick clarification. Is it $350 + dyno time costs???

If so, how much time do we get/need of dyno time with 5-6 cars in one day?

$350 + dyno time. Each car should only be about an hour on the dyno, but it takes about 15 minutes to put it on and 15 to take it off. You only get charged for the time you are actually on the dyno.

If you want your car tuned you'll need to put a deposit down. The tuning will take place on Saturday the 19th.

I talked to Steve on the phone, he said if we get 5 people or the extra $75 per person he will come out for Saturday the 19th in Wilmington Delaware. His plane ticket is like $350 alone and he has to waste 3 days to make this happen.

If we can't get the extra $$ or the extra person I can do two things. One would be refund everyone, or two would be to reschedule for another day with more people.

yeah, unfortunalty we couldn't get him to stay for 2 days...so it will only be Saturday in Delaware. I hope that won't be too much of an inconvienince for you.

Alright, so basically we can get him the extra money if needed. I'll let Steve know so he can book his flight.
