ITS GET TOGETHER, DYNO DAY TIME!
No tuning, just dyno pulls.....some grilling right at the garage... and maybe even some adult beverages (responsibly).
http://www.performancespecialties.com/
A friend of mine (RAY) owns Performance Specialties, and has a very nice Dyno

He is looking very fwd to hosting out event.
-DIESEL Trucks will be an additional $50.00 on top of the $50.00 admission due to complications in calculating TQ.
-We will not limit it to only LTX vehicles, however it is an LTX event.
-COST WILL BE $50.00 per vehicle.
We will do the dyno day on a SATURDAY, June 22nd
(rain date of JUNE 29th)
10:00AM, although I will be there earlier.
FINALLY, to make this happen I need a minimum of 5 vehicles to "REGISTER" and make the (refundable up until 6/15/2013) PAYMENT before SATURDAY JUNE 8th at the absolute latest

For all of you that are attending or are thinking of attending, I was going to try to do something afterwards for Larry for his Birthday since it is the following weekend. Maybe some drinks at a local bar or something like that. Pm me if you are interested so I can figure out where we can go. Thank You :) :) :)

But remember, Im there to host, and have fun... I cant be expected to baby sit food the entire time also.. thats why I was going with burgers and dogs... make a round, shut it down, if need for more comes up..make a round and shut it down.

well Im trying to do the math in my head.. I have 11 cars signed up for now.. if it takes 30 minutes per car... to strap...3 pulls, un strap not taking into account any unforseen issues.....thats 5.5 hours... add in drinking.. grilling eating... call it 6 hours. Assume some people show up unannounced...even longer.. if not.. then at least till 330.

For those coming to the dyno day, yet unfamiliar with where Performance Specialties is, I have attached the Google maps (directions) link. It will get you to the shop whose front door is on high street. There is no parking lot entrance on that side, however if you are traveling East, the traffic light right near the shop is North Evans St. Take that east one block to KING St. Make a left, and on your left you will see the garage side of Performance Specialties. Park in the lot next door (to the left when facing the rear of the shop) since the shop lot has a tendency to get full and hard to navigate. Any questions... PM or TEXT me.

THIS SHOULD BE A LINK TO AN EVENT I CREATED TO USTREAM (LIVE STREAM) THE PA DYNO DAY.
http://www.ustream.tv/manage-show/events/11802201
You will have to sign up, but for those that utilized Ustream last year for the shootout, you can attest that it gives you an opportunity to watch whats happening, without being there.
IF after signing up, the event link does not give you a link, please let me know, but all you have to do is log on and follow the POPO channel on Sat 22nd.

definitely in for next year. quite happy with my numbers, i couldnt believe it. whenever i said the mileage people almost crapped themselves lol. even more suprised osie's pretty stock 94 put down 241whp pulling 13 degrees for knock. i datalogged it after i got home and it was pulling timing like hell. bad gas maybe. doesnt matter, car is coming apart now lol.
everyone was extremely friendly, and popo/miss popo thank you for your concerns with my preggo wife. we were very greatful how caring everyone was. everytime a car did a pull the baby kicked her in the bladder lol.
Lol... I tried tonget her inside in the AC...she insisted she needed to see the pulls.
tried going on ustream and it says video cannot be found.... :( have to just wait till later this week when he edits the other vid
I was so exhausted at the end of the day... I think that i only broadcasted...but did not SAVE at the end.... Idk if anyone even watched our stream... But it was available.
Prob a good thing, because I heard a few convos that were goin on near the camera...and better they were not saved.
George with the cameras will be posting more pics amd vids...soon.
Details on MK4. I will own one someday.
