I'm pretty sure there will not actually be a break for lunch.
Also, count on the FI tunes to take about double the allotted time.

I'm betting we will end around 10pm.

I didnt figure you would actually break for lunch but I figured I would throw it in anyways.

I know I am being optimistic on the times.

I will be showing up at 830 to get things settled with the show and help move a few of their cars around. Remember to check the schedule and arrive early, plan to stay late, bring cash and sign up for the BBQ.

Two zero two is up first at 9am, you can show up at 845.

I should be finishing up an oil change and installing my race pipe, but instead I decided to get the food ready for the BBQ tomorrow. I went with a set of 2lb ball tips and I add some veggies to the spread. See pics.

Those will be fried parmesan tomatoes with garlic and basil and fried garlic bell peppers.

Some people have not signed up yet. We need someone to bring bread and condiments.

Got a slow start and it took a while to finish car #1. Got through a few NA cars before the first FI. 297 HP out of the procharged RX8. Was wanting 320+ but after talking to Jeff and really thinking about it, 300 is kind of right where it should be and it feels much stronger then before tuning and not even the same car as NA.

Were a few hours behind but most people are being patient (thank you). I just hope the shop is kind when the payment comes due.

It was a little cold in the early morning, but fortunately the sun came out to warm us a little. I brought my camera, and snapped some photos while I was there to share:

















More pictures and videos on my Flickr page if anyone's interested: http://www.flickr.com/photos/6677869...7624776633698/

Thanks to HWY8 for organizing the event, Mazdamaniac for the great tune, and Hybridworks for their facility. It was a pleasure meeting everyone, until next time... Happy Rotoring!

Cheers,

It was a great turn out. I think they're still going... My car was on the dyno for a bit (just before HWY8), and we were behind by noontime.
