Just a heads up guys... this is the last week for special pricing on the APs.... if you haven't yet reached out to Heffay be sure to do so before its too late.

Also, cash/checks are accepted on the event day for those needing to renew their subscriptions.

gettin' close

I believe it is just a matter of purchasing it (just the subscription) on his website. Another option would be to show up 6/9 with cash/check in hand.

Got another update for everyone, although it doesn't impact the schedule but I was asked by both the tuner and shop to add a last spot to help out an esmeril setup they have both been struggling with for some time.

The addition will be added to the end of the list and will not impact the timing of any existing spots.

I will likely ask they pay the same amount y'all already paid in full and will be distributing that (minus shop costs) back to each of you on the event day.

Ok guys... check PMs ... I got an update tonight on where each of you stand AP and subscription wise.

If I don't hear from Jason (JWeave16) by tomorrow night I'm going to need one of you to give him a call -- want to say I saw a couple of you exchange phone #s recently. He's about to be in a really tough spot.

Also, it looks like I'll be giving each of you back $33 on 6/9. Waiting for final word from the shop, tuner, and our Esmeril addition... It looks like that will definitely be happening.

I will be bringing one of those popup canopies for us to sit under with two folding chairs. I'll also have two ice chests -- one with cokes & sprite and the other with my favorite beer -- last year I sprung for Golden Monkey, this year I'm currently on the fence between Sam Adams Summer Ale and straight up Lager.

Will also be making a Pizza run at some point during the day. The tuner requires an hawaiian one if memory serves correctly -- oh and I'll also make sure he has a couple cans of Monster too.

I'll follow up with him tonight. Since you're online tuning with him already it sounds like a simple oversight.

Here's who is on the waiting list if you want to reach out to them directly, Jason:

7. Skwoko
8. Renzo-Rx8

Also, adamwzl showed interest. Let me know if your spot goes to any of them and I'll update things accordingly. Also, if you do find someone to fill your spot they're going to need to already have an AP. It is unlikely we can source another one with such short notice.

Finally, if you can't find any takers, I might buy the spot myself but use it to have Jeff work his magic with my Adaptronic... assuming my setup will be in state that would benefit from it.

Ok guys... can you feel it? It's getting close

Here's the run order:

1. rkendrick
2. 200.mph
3. Pico
4. JWeave16
5. keck03
6. motomouse

Rod -- need ya there as close to 8AM as possible ... 200 you're not far behind him. Will try to keep to this schedule but if a car comes off the dyno and the next guy isn't there we'll grab whoever is waiting.

The sooner we start ... the sooner we get through the day!

Hey guys,

Check out this thread if you're interested in a compression test, check out nycgps's thread here. With enough interest he'll likely show up and compression test us on the spot.

Show a top RX8'er your support!

That's pretty much what its going to come down to just as soon as the dyno is open and the next person isn't there.

I posted the order based on when y'all called original dibs... but you're right, Pico. We're going with whoever is there.
