spots are full i doubt they can fit you in :hahano:



























:bootyshak

JETS3T8 01-03-2011 01:22 AM

Hey Jedi. I know spots are full so just put me down as a standby.
Preferably for Sunday but it doesn't really matter.
I don't mind doing a couple of exhibition pulls and meeting some of the guys finally, should be fun.
Let me know if I have to put a deposit down.

Robb: both days are completely filled with participants.
Would you like me to put you on the standby list? There's a few people ahead of you but maybe you'll get lucky? :dunno: Once we get closer to the event I'll have a better idea of what the list will look like and I'll PM you with pricing details if it looks like we can get you on.

Hey rg1977,
I've got you down for Sunday. Are you doing straight pulls or are you looking to have some tuning done as well?

Since I'm not signed up with MM, would this be the time to do so? or will I be signed up at the event?

Do I make any deposits now? or pay a lump at the event?

Thanks Laythor, I think that car wash will come in handy for anyone coming to the event whose car hasn't been washed lately since someone seems to do that every year. With Zach shooting pics all day, you do not want to be THAT guy with the dirty car... :lol2:

Also, microfiber towels + quick detailer spray is your friend.

It's crazy how far this meet has come in a few short years and I honestly think this will be the BEST one yet!
Now you sir, have some serious work to do between now and then so get crackin'!

damn, I post your name and you come flying out of the shadows to post. That was both creepy and rather great timing on your part. :lol2:
All kidding aside, we'll get you signed up with MM before the event that way the only thing anyone will need to pay on the day of the dyno is the dyno time fee paid directly to SR.

I'll send you a PM later on with all the details.

Just straight pulls. Also, I'm pretty sure it's no big deal but can you check with the shop to make sure they don't have any issues with an open exhaust and methanol?
Thx Jedi!

Jedi54 01-03-2011 12:04 PM

I doubt they have an issue with that but I'll check just to be safe.
You should see some of the crazy things they've put on that dyno beore.

**cough cough** 4 Rotor **cough cough**

Jedi54 01-04-2011 09:35 AM

you're on sunday's standby list.
to be honest, it'll be pretty tough to get you on since at least two people would have to drop off but I'll add you and we'll see what happens.

Sarah_b 01-04-2011 10:23 AM

Bugger, we just pulled the 4 rotor engine out of the RX8 :( We decided to pull it down and check it out, its been together for the last 18 months.

Depending on how our time goes and if its back together in time we will try and arrange to bring it down, we are working on a few changes for the 2011 season.

Jedi54 01-04-2011 10:54 AM

sarah: I was ABOUT to PM you to ask how the 4 rotor was doing.
We'd love to have you guys come down if you have the time and (as always) it would great to see that beautiful car of yours.

Changes for 2011??? do we get any hints as to what you're up to?
