me, my friend with his fc, and 2 other fc guys are in need of a tune. Ramy, dan said that he would also look into getting Carv2 to host it again. Middle-end of march would be a good time.

I don't mind doing it at CarV2, but the only prob is, we have a lot of local guys (both North and South of NoVa) who claim to really need a tune, and don't want to travel too much. I guess time will tell how serious ppl are...

I'm not from the NVa, but I'm down for it if this is going to happen.

Ramy, let's get the show on the road. Count me in with a deposit when needed.

you do realize the temperature shouldn't matter that much right? If the car is going to be in a shop on a dyno it won't be freezing either.

"NoVa = FLAKERS .... Please its sub zero outside and you want a tune now ?"

It was 65-70 degrees when everyone flaked out last time. what better temp could you ask for???


"Some of with heavy mods need a tune for the spring summer temps."

Some of us drive our cars year round. hot, cold, rain,shine and snow and it is heavily modded w/ street port,single turbo,front mount etc...

I am just tired of hearing people want tuning then when the time comes they back out with every excuse in the book.

Andrew, I wasn't speaking only about this thread. It's more like we have soo many FDs around here, but hardly any show up to any meets. I think you of all ppl should know that. How many FDs have we had at once at the Chick Filet meet for example? 3 or 4? That's just sad... You're one of the few that actually make it out...

Ramy, like I said count me in.... Just let me know when and where - perferably closer to the NC border then the WV or Pen state line. You got peep complaining of 3-4 hour drive? I'll have a 7 to 8+ hour drive for this and will be there!

Besides, it's about time to meet the man I give 2 out of 3 paychecks! LOL

The List
1) Noxlupus

I think you guys forget that anyone around here who is not a flaker already goes to PFS or maybe Demetrious. Which would explain the lack of interest in a Steve Kan session this area. We already have good tuners here. No need to fly someone in.

My 02. Hope to see you at the BBQ this year Ramy.

Ohh yea, that's right. My bad. I remember you mentioning something about your motor a while back. Sorry. I'm sure she'll be a beast when she's finally up and running!

Sounds like a plan
