Yes up to a certain point, I may have to extend it to 1 week before the event. Please let us know as soon as you find out so we can make sure all the slots are filled. When do you think you'll know?

I'll put you on the list.

Why should this event be any different than any of the others?

There are over 70 bars and restaurants within 1 mile of my house. I'm sure we'll find somewhere to have a drink.

First post updated with Jeff's flight cost. We now have final costs for everyone if we get 8 people.

Since the dyno time starts at 10am, I'd LOVE to get as many of the participants together as possible ahead of time - either Friday night or early Saturday morning - to get the road datalog portion of the tune out of the way.
It will make Saturday go much more smoothly.

Gathering somewhere that we can get the cars on and off of a highway would be best as I need the vehicles to sustain 50 - 60 MPH for a minute at a time.

I will bring TWO AccessPORTs with me, BTW.

Sounds good. I can scope out a place to meet up just north of Seattle off I-5N Probably north of the U district. That's the best place I can think of where we'll be able to get some highway time without getting stuck in too much rush hour traffic but still being reasonably close to the metro area.

I'd like to verify that one of those is slated for me? I don't mean to sound pushy or anything. I'm perfectly willing to buy one online ahead of time but this will be more convenient (and dodge shipping/sales tax ).

Friday night portion should be doable. Maybe I'll actually drive to work that day

Well, its first come, first served.
If you want to buy one now the usual way, I'll refund you the shipping charge and hand deliver it.

That goes to anyone else on the list as well.
