It's always the most hectic for jorge, jeff, charles, etc getting the very first two cars onto the rollers... once that's done everything seems to flow smoothly. Fewer people there, fewer distractions for the event planners.

of course sitting and watching people work is fun, so come early if ya want

The morning is always super hectic for a few of us so if I kindly tell you to get the f00k out of my way, you know it's nothing personal.
Once we get the video cameras in place, the live web feed going, and the first car properly strapped down on the dyno things tend to get easier.

I still cant believe MM is selling his COBB AP for $495 w/ MM tunes for the 6 mo. .... I would pick it up but I dont need it at this "exact moment" and by the time the FI is done, I'd be down to like 3 months left of MM tune service. ....Looks like Imma be Trailering my car to AZ for tuning .... that is.... when the time comes I dont want no "email back and forth stuff" I want that perfect tune.

JEDI: Are you going also around that time? Or what? I would drive my car out there, but thats 4hrs from my house. Im not sure If i should be doing that on a "untuned 8". Too Risky. + I think that A little 4 or 6 cyl pickup with a trailer would waste way less gas than my 8 would Even if I had to rent the trailer (something like a ford ranger or s-10.

you should be fine driving on a base map, just make sure not to go into positive pressures (no boost)
