I will replace my 380 JCW injectors to 440's. If anyone is interested in my used 380's (5k old), I will be selling it for $ 220. My time slot is 11:00 am Saturday. Thanks

Hello everybody. Something new has just come up. I talked to Jan and Eric at the Left Coast. Because we have so many cars to tune. Jan's going to try to come up Friday (1/22) in the afternoon and tune some of the cars. So if anyone wants to change to friday afternoon let me know and we can arange for the dyno. It would make it easier on everybody if we could get 5 or 6 cars on friday. I know some of you are coming from a long ways away, but maybe some of the local cras could make Friday. Please let me know.

Thanks checkers

Waiting for his return this spring on the other coast to Rochester NY.

Checkers,

How late is Jan planning to go Friday evening? I could possibly make it down by 5ish that Friday from Oregon, but I have no idea what the passes are going to be like near the border. Clear now, but if a storm comes through...

Is anybody on Sunday willing to switch with me for Saturday or would I be able to switch anyways now that we have moved some people to Friday?

I'm trying to avoid rushing back up to the Bay on Saturday for a 300+ mile drive so the extra day would make things a lot easier for me.

Thanks!

I'm not sure yet, but I think around noon or 1 pm. It would help if you could move to Friday.

Checkers,

I have an R50 and want to make sure that Jan is able to tune it. I spoke with him early 2009 and he said no problem.

Checkers, I sent you a private message about 2 weeks ago and just now sent you a 2nd private message but haven't heard from you.

I might have to give my spot to anyone that could not get in. I have an issue with my car and a possible Surgery on that Saturday that I have to go to.

I will keep you posted. Please reply when you can.

Okay guys. Here's the latest and greatest. I've talked to Eric at left Coast and Jan. We're starting at eight clock a.m. on Friday Saturday and Sunday. We got the dyno pretty much all day for all three days. As of now we have a card on Friday nine cars on Saturday and six cars on Sunday. Please don't forget to bring cash it's $350.00 for R 53 and R 50 and R 56 are $600.00 plus $75 with a dyno. We will try to get everybody in as fast as we can. Please come early and be a little patient.

Thanks
Randy
