Who wants Jan to come to Boston?

How many MINI owners would be interested in having Jan come out to Boston for a tuning weekend?

I haven't spoken to Jan yet about this, and we all know he's a busy man, so it may not happen right away. Still....

There's a Dynapack shop west of Boston that may be able to host the event. I'm taking my car there this weekend for a pre-mod baseline run. I'll guage their willingness while I'm there.

I'm certainly interested, given timing and finances.

I had to back out of the CT gig due to the latter (unemployed).

Perhaps next week I'll get the news I've been waiting for.

(I need a fingers crossed emoticon, and do not have one)

Well, I don't have anything confirmed yet. I have been in touch with Jan by e-mail and he showed interest in coming out to Boston, but there is not yet any confirmation. He is a very busy man, after all, so we may have to wait....

count me in please, I am from Montreal too, not far from Boston. I knew that Jan will visit Detroit on the 6th to 8th June, so hopefully he can pass by Boston or New York area will be fine.

Bump...! If Jan can work for us in Boston, I am sure at least there will be more than 5 or more Montrealers will join.

Jan wants to get this thing going, so we need to peg down a time for him to come out.

What works better? Last weekend in July? First weekend in August?

Either date works for me. I just want to get it done.

Hopefully Jan can come before the beginning of August, since I will have a business trip to Asia at the beginning of August.
