Gotcha, I knew there was a reason I chose the upcoming weekend lol.

RX927 02-07-2010 10:49 AM

Is it possible to do it the weekend after that then?
27th 28th?

Gives ample time to make arrangements and if were lucky warmer weather.

Kane 02-07-2010 03:23 PM

Sorry, I'm deploying that weekend...

it's gotta be this Friday and Sat or see if Jeff can run a web seminar for you guys.... or wait a year... LOLZ

RX927 02-07-2010 05:37 PM

Yea guys your going to have to count me out. This upcoming weekend have to many things planned.

Props to kane and Jindesu for setting this up.

JinDesu 02-07-2010 07:12 PM

Gotcha - sorry you can't come by. I'll be pming the rest of you guys tonight.

ssspeedfreak 02-08-2010 10:50 AM

So whats the plan?

Kane 02-08-2010 11:03 AM

Good question.

I guess Jin was waiting for the hard confirms from his PM last night.

JinDesu 02-09-2010 08:48 AM

I'm still pm'ing. I was out all of yesterday, and had no access to the forums. I'll update whenever I can.

JinDesu 02-09-2010 09:18 AM

UPDATE:

So far I have two person confirmed, one person declined, and 2 other people replied to. The remaining 4 are unaccounted for. I will take today to wait for responses and answer questions. By tomorrow, if I do not have more than 5 people (myself included), I will cancel it for this weekend and push for the 21st. I have spoken to Kane about it, and he is fine with this proposal.

For those who read this thread: The current situation for the 12th/13th is this:

Cost: $720 total - split amongst those who attend (5 people attending is $144 per person).
Location: Queens, NY. Probably a hotel near La Guardia or J.F.K. so we can get parking space and a conference room.
Time: 7pm on Friday the 12th. This is to allow people to get off work at 5pm to get to the place. We can work on this.

JinDesu 02-10-2010 06:58 AM

Alright - due to the low interest for this weekend, I will push it to the 21st. I will update more information later today when I figure it all out.

Kane 02-10-2010 08:37 AM

Given the weather, probably not a bad idea.

We shall see.

RIWWP 02-10-2010 01:07 PM

Thanks for pushing it back. This was pretty much my drop dead date for saying "if no further info, I'm backing out"

Also, only 5 people pushes the price past the webinar from MM, when you count in gas for me. The break-even point is about $120 a person, or 6 people. Possibly less money more people due to southern CT and NY gas prices.


If this happens, I will need a place to crash overnight. It's ~3hrs from Providence. Don't need anything fancy, even just an empty spot on the floor will work. I'd willingly sleep in my 8 if the weather was warmer :)

JinDesu 02-11-2010 08:41 AM

Alright - I'm trying to see if I can get in touch with RX927 to see if he is interested and would let us use his place.

If so, we can cut down on the hotel bill and make it even cheaper for all of us.

Kane 02-12-2010 05:28 PM

I am thinking of canceling this.

This is my last weekend free, and the lack of interest is motivating me to pull the plug and have you guys do the MM seminar... I don't want to leave this weekend open if the tuning class get's canceled last minute.

If we don't have enough confirms by Monday then I'm gonna say this is a no go.

JinDesu 02-12-2010 05:57 PM

Gotcha - I understand. As far as I can tell, most everyone else is still a maybe. Only the two who had confirmed to me seem to be definite regardless. I can't really vouch for much more =\

Kane 02-12-2010 05:58 PM

Werd man - not trying to be a prick - but I'd rather set up some other stuff IF we can't get the people for this.

Let's see how it goes.

JinDesu 02-12-2010 06:37 PM

Roger that. I'll set the deadline earlier this time. I.e. Monday. I'll pm everyone again tomorrow and Sunday.

JinDesu 02-16-2010 05:46 AM

Alright - I am officially canceling this. The guys who were interested - please check out MM's web seminar thread in the engine tuning forum. Thanks!

RX8YA 02-17-2010 04:15 PM

^ Thanks for Trying Jin wish Kane had more time I would have paid some extra monies for him to help me with my FI setup lol seeing as its basically the same as his.... Well im sure when Kane gets back he will have the rotary itch again and maybe we can set something up.

Kane 02-17-2010 04:29 PM

Juansito 05-23-2011 07:55 AM

WOW! Im down for this!

Learn + ill pay from him to tune my car!

Kane 05-23-2011 09:42 AM

I'm still down. I think 4 guys would make the cost low enough to be worth while.
