New York Area Dyno Day - Saturday, June 28th

We are scheduled for SATURDAY JUNE 28TH around 11AM. Please confirm that this works for you.

I don't know if any of the Jersey or CT guys are interested as well, but they are more than welcome to join...

***Updated AGAIN*** After a number of phone calls, there was a lot of mis-information going around....price is a flat rate of $75/car, regardless of how many ppl show up. Yeah its 20 bucks more than I was first told, but unless you want to hear the whole damn story, just deal with it...

This is at No Limit Motorsport in Medford, NY. Click Here For Directions
It's right off of the Long Island Expressway.

See Page 2 of this thread for possible caravan info.

Tentative signups:
1) me (Andrew)
2) Su_Maverick (name?)
3) Heyarnold69 (Jim)
4) NYC Drift King (Omar)
5) Migi'sBatmobile (Miguel)
6) Gmanigio (Luca)
7) motomouse (?)
8)
9)
10)
11)
12)
.......

The website says they are closed on Sundays....but maybe that just means the storefront, and they will do dyno sessions. I will call them tomrrow to ask about this stuff, but are Saturdays definitely bad for you?

They say $125 for the first hour, $75/hour after that...soooo, for example:
2 hours: $200, divided by 3 cars = ~$65
3 hours: $275
4 hours: $350, divided by 6 cars = ~$60
5 hours: $425
6 hours: $500, divided by 9 cars = ~$55

The more cars, the cheaper it is. Bring your friends!

I dont think they go by how many hours. I think you just ask them for a "dyno day" and they would set it up for $50 BUT you will need 10+ cars.

I think thats how Dyno Days are setup, not really by how many hours you use it for.

I could be wrong.

It's very possible, I'll ask them tomorrow. Heh...I know very little about these things....
But they do give those hourly rates on their website, so that's what I'm going on for the moment.

$75 is a bit much....For that I might as well book a 1 hour hour tuning session cuz I need that.

http://nrgtechracing.com/main.htm

NRG Tech is a great company, bottom right of their first page they have dyno day rates of $50 for 3 pulls.

So NRG said they need a minimum of 10 cars. I'm sure we could find a few more people, but a couple people on the list here already said they are on the fence due to scheduling. Also, they are closed that weekend June 28th. We could do it another time, of course, but i think July 4th weekend a lot of people may be busy.

So, I think we'll stick with NoLimit on June 28th. I know it's 25 bucks more, but they were OK with us showing up with only 7-8 cars, which is what we have right now, and they had no problem scheduling us in on that Saturday. I had to make an executive decision here... Luca, I hope you can still make it.

Please let me know if anyone who signed up will NOT be coming due to scheduling or price or anything else.....thanks.

So I don't know who enzo is or anything....but if you just call them and tell them you're with the group signed up for saturday the 28th. I told them we were just doing runs, no real tuning, but maybe you can ask them....
