DFW Austin trip on 4/22: Want to visit PTP?
Since we'll be down in austin anyway, I was wondering if you guys wanted to take a trip to PTP motorsports. I talked to Jon in the aftermarket forum and he said it'd be fine and they'd let us do a free dyno day as long as we didnt bring like 50 cars.
for those who don't know, PTP is making a custom turbo kit for the RX8 scheduled to come out within the next few months. As far as kits go, this is the best looking one i've seen and the price will be fair.
Is anyone interested in this?
We can go saturday or sunday between binge drinking hours.
Please post and let me know so I can let PTP know if we'll be there.
Thanks guys.

If a car does not pull a high 400 or better it's not that exciting to me. That and it has to be running racing fuel so you can enjoy the smell :D
