Rolled back into Phoenix a few hours ago and I just now got all my stuff unpacked and am in serious need of a shower.

I digress.

Wow, what a weekend. I have to say that the last 2 years of doing this event had me feeling like it was a lot to cram into a single day. Doing this over 2 days was really a great way to go even if by Sunday night I was tired, hurting and exhausted (pun intended). I'm going to be putting together a recap on BHR.com but there was so much stuff that happened I don't even know if I can remember it all.

I do want to say thank you to Jedi for organizing the event and everyone from Socal that came out. Not sure if Steve trolls this forum but we cannot even begin to express our thanks to SR Motorcars for their generous hospitality and all the hard work over the weekend. We've had the pleasure of doing car club events with other shops. While we enjoyed those experiences, none of those shops came close to being as open as SR Motorcars.

Thank you to everyone who watched via the webstream and for the suggestions through the day. I do apologize for some of the technical hiccups but we were using stickam's website in a manner which it wasn't really intended for as well as working with equipment that I had not seen or touched until the morning of the event. There are a lot of ideas that I gathered from the experience. Let's just say that if you cannot make the big Vegas event this summer that BHR will have a few new tricks for bringing that event to you live.

In all, we saw about 35,000 viewers each day with the web stream so plenty of people got a chance to see some of the awesome cars that went on the dyno.

I was really glad to have an opportunity to talk to a bunch of new people I have not met before as well as seeing old faces. If I didn't get a chance to chat or otherwise missed you at the event I do apologize. Hopefully everyone there got a chance to get their questions answered by someone on the BHR team. We were able to pull off plenty of installs, compression checks and seafoam fun! In all, it was a very busy weekend.

I know all of us at BHR are looking forward to helping the Socal guys make next year's event bigger, better and more bad ***.

I wonder what counts as a view? Each new visitor or anytime the connection is established? Either way that is a lot of traffic for a streamed dyno day!

And only 4,300 of them were troll haters. I guess that is an acceptable rate.
