SC people Dyno day?

My local shop finally got their dyno. He approch me wondering if the Rotary guys want to get together and have a Dyno day. He didn't give me a price because he want to see how many people are interested. So let me see how amny people are interested so I can set up a propose date and cost. I figure if we do this on the AM then we can take a drive to either Hunting Is. or Hilton Head for a day at the beach. If we get this together then I'm going to request a deposit from each one of you so we can save the day and make sure we get so people there.

Nieto he also asked me if you want to dring the car by him so he can tune it for you.

Well he'is doing my car tomorrow. From what I gather from him is that he used to owned a shop in Japan for a few years before he transfer out of it and got out of the military. So I'm guessing he got a good experience with the dyno. But as for tuning a rotary I would say none. That's why I'm kinda of iffy when it comes to tuning but straping the car down to do a pull should be that hard.
