DFW RX8club/ MVP Motorsports DYNO DAY!
 

Alright everyone we have been presented with a fun opportunity from one of our vendors and sponsors of "The Texas 8" RX8 event. MVP Motorsports recently contacted me about us doing a "DYNO DAY" at their location (Bridgeport, TX) in the spring sometime. The date is up to us so right now I am just judging interest on if you guys would like to take a Saturday in the near future and hangout at their shop and DYNO some of the RX8's?

MVP Motorposrts said that they could DYNO about 20 RX8's during the time we spend there. Now this isn't free but it is at a discounted price of $10 per car (if we get 20 cars) to participate in the DYNO.

MVP Motorsports will also have their world record holding Vipers, Supras, project RX8 and more out at this event for us to check out. They are also talking about doing a BBQ lunch during the time that we spend there as well.

So right now this is just a feeler to see who all is interested in participating (getting your car dyno'd) as well as just going to hangout on a Saturday and get to know more RX8 people as well as one of our vendors/sposnors.

Thanks!

Cool! I'm game.

make sure i can make it. hopefully by then ill have the 7 registered and all. i'd love to throw her on there as well. get a baseline for that.

HINT* spring break is the the week of the 14th. ill be back in town the 12th.

:)

You know I'm in. Also if we have 20 cars isn't the lunch only like another $8 for almost all you can eat bbq?

I"m down! Work for me is going to be pretty busy the next few months so once we nail down a date I can confirm for sure but I should be able to make it.

Yeah the BBQ which from what I have been told is really good and can feed up to 50 people. But once we know how many people are coming we will know the price for lunch. The more people the cheaper it is.

Make it in June :)

I will most likely be down. I think im going to the dyno this Saturday to get a baseline before anymore mods and turbo...

I'd love that.

Nice to see that there is some interest in doing this.......hopefully we can get more people though!

As long as it's actually on a weekend, I'm game! I wanna see how much my "badass driver" mod ups my HP!

Negative 5 HP!!!

I'll go just to show what I can do with fewer horses ;)

So Steve.. Did you have a thought on when?

After the State Meet :)

So no one else is interested? we need about 20 cars to participate.

ill be bringing two. i hope

Bump.....trying to keep the thread alive, hopefully we can do this soon!

Hey Steve... Did this die a slow death or are we still thinking of putting a group event together?

Still thinking about it....sounds like MVP is all about it, we just need to drum up some interest.

just tell me when and where an i will go too.....

I'd totally go... if it lasted until the evening cuz I get off @ 5pm Saturdays..

If my car is broken in when you decide to do it. I'll come down. I'll also ask some of the crew around here.

I am going to e-mail Kevin at MVP Motorposrts today and get an updated cost on doing this event as well as see what dates are good for them. I will keep you all posted as I get more info.

Thanks!

Not June 19th!! I just signed up for the Apex driving school that day! :ylsuper:

Where do you sign up for that? I'm interested... Send me a PM Kyle with the info and what exactly it is :) thanks

Yeah it probably won't be that soon.

Yeah Steve I'm totally down, just tell me when. I wanta see how much HP my baby is putting down :)

BTW I just got my response from my Traffic Lawyer for going 99 in a 50... Total cost is going to be: $233 lol, crazy right??? Whew...

then when you do find out you'll have this face > :sad:

:cussing: and this one

Let me know, I'm down, better than dynoing alone here.

Will do man!

here is some hp for you Brandon

Lol so this is where you work now ehh Brian?

as for the HP I know how much the 8 puts out roughly.. but id like to compare where my 8 stands...

I've been to their shop for a Dyno Day. I think it was a free day with mainly Supras. I think the car with the lowest power they dyno'd that day put was an s2000 that dyno'd 200 or 205. Even the 3 series put out like 300.

I'm up for this! Let me know when. I am interested to now what I got at 120k miles. HA!

^^^ Lol the 8 puts out less than that... im hoping to be close to 200, but I dont think I have enough HP mods yet lol, I still need BHR's ignition upgrade, midpipe and Cobb AP...

Since i'm such a nice freaking guy and everything.... (shut up kid).... i figured i could help some people out and well i have an AP that i'm not using right now but i will need it when i get my car done and i have a mid pipe and maybe something else that switches easily that you guys are more than welcome to borrow and try them out for this dyno day... the catch is... its that i'll need help here and there to get a little done on my car.... i.e. pulling motors.... putting them in..... extra hands to help me hold stuff while i design and fabricate parts... or just some one to b.s. with while i work and drink.... lol

i dont need the AP. but pulling motors sounds like fun. in exchange you can help with the 7. you already drove all that way once.

Where do you live, Speedy?

ha ha .... Kaufman.... lol

Yikes.

Let me know when you need help. No promises on being in town, but if I'm around, I'll come out and help.

Add me in!

Hey guys, pretty new to the forums, but me and my friends have been looking for an rx8 club in the community to join. If this event is taking place, I'd have 3 rx8s that would love to come out to the dyno event.

Welcome Guys/Gals..

So anything new on this one?

I'm down.

Ummmm....
