WELL IT LOOKS LIKE WE'RE FULL

If anyone has thoughts of coming please let me know ASAP. I may be able to get another spot or two. We have one or two re-tunes which may not take the full time.
Thanks to everyone for joining in.

DAMN - I FORGOT A SPOT FOR MYSELF

Adding a few new parts again. RMW crack is a bad habit. Good for Jan.

Great habit for the track though.

Jan, for some reason you never raised my rev limiter. Is that something you can just plug in and remove?

I'm sure Jan can do that for you. What's it set at now? Jan won't raise it that much unless you have his head on the car that will handle it.

If I remember correctly you were out of injector so I didn't want to raise it. Feel free to come by and we can take a look at it

Make sure your belts are showing a minimum of 3/4 hole
check your oil/fluids
check your plugs (replace if they are over a yr old)
I can bring plugs if you need them
run the fuel you plan to use on a daily basis
I will bring some flash tools for those that want mulitple maps
check your air filters to make sure they are clean
make sure all your boots are in good condition

if you have questions feel free to call me
thanks,
jan

Snow be damned - I just wonder whether to wash the car before the drive up or not if it's slushy.

I can't wait to see Jan get the shake down from TSA at the airport for the plugs. It was fun at Daytona.

Jan

Looks like you should bring more than just a few sets.
