I'll take that as a yes Mike.

Where are all the other Arizona owners.......don't miss out on the chance.
Anyone near Arizona should take advantage of the opportunity.

I may be interested in driving down from Vegas for this. It'd have to be a weekend, and either prior to Halloween weekend in October or after November 17th.

Agro, thanks for jumping on the wagon.
I am sure that we can schedule this for a weekend.
I'm sure all of us along with Randy would prefer it that way.
Do me a favor and email me your information.
I am making the waiting list.
It looks like we might be up to 5 now.
The list is growing...........Who is next?

It seems that we are closing in on our 10 owner minimum for the group pully install. Anyone out there in the southwest who is interested, let me know.
I have a list of the interested owners.
You still have some time to save the $400 by October.
If you can't make it to one of the others, come to PHOENIX!

I talked to the spousal unit about this, and if the dates are good, I'm in. I am going to be out of the country from 10/30 to 11/16 so any weekend outside of those dates works for me.

I think the drive down and back will provide a nice comparison of the effect of the pulley.

Great Agro!
Do me a favor and email me all your inforamtion.
I will talk to Randy and be sure we schedule a weekend when it works for you.

I just made the drive from Vegas last weekend. Let me tell you what.......DAMN....I love this car! The curves and straight aways make it an extremely fun drive. There is a stretch just past the dam when you can open it up.
Hit 120 on the way, and 120 on the way back. I had so much fun!
With the pully, you should be able to hit that 125 mark on the way home!

Your right, I do have it. Sorry.

When I pointed it out to her, she wasn't to happy.

Mine is not too bad about it, though she is constantly harping about the effect on our insurance costs if I get a speeding ticket. I have a solution though, I still have my Australian license. I'll pay the speeding ticket, but I don't want the insurance company to know about it. Haven't had a ticket (in the US) since October 97.
Touch wood.

Actually, I'm now 100% in, I had a good night at the casino last night. Won $1500.
That'll pay for a pulley.

DVLMINI, if I order some stuff from Miniswag, will you bring it with you and save me the shipping cost?

Since I am not sure there are enough confirmed participants now to guarntee that the list will exceed 10 before October, I think I will make the drive to San Diego for a July 13th install.

Maybe I should be more optomistic, but I don't want to miss the oportunity to have Randy put one on my car. A girl can never have enough power!

Dominic
Having worked to coordinate the Dallas event I think I can tell you that your event will fill up as you get closer, just as mine did and the Florida one did. We had MINIS everywhere! Some even signed up during the event after they drove a pulleyed car.

If you have people on the fence, THEY NEED TO DO THIS MOD! It's incredible how it transforms the car.

what would help you the most to fill the event is a date. You'll have a sense of urgency. Take a poll to see who might be thinking about this but are delaying even posting yet. All the events so far have had Randy working 3 full days and in our case at least it was 4 days.

I hope this helps.

I just happen to be one of the few who signed up. Brandon (MINIMAC) is the one coordinating. I'll let Brandon know that you posted this.

I'll second the date thing. I'd like to know exactly when I need to be in Phoenix. I'm going to be out of the country from Halloween to 11/17, so I have to make sure the dates work. Oh yeah, I'm also gonna have to leave by lunchtime on the sunday of whatever weekend it is to get home in time.

Agro, with you on the list, it looks like we would be at 7 for sure, with 2 on the fence.
I really don't think we are going to have a problem with the last 2. Join us!

I keep getting more and more email every week about it. This is goignt to happen!
I also wanted to tell everyone that a date has yet to be set.
Agro has a window he needs to avoid. I would like to have it after he comes back into the country. My wife and I are expecting our baby girl the first eek of November. I owuld like to avoid the last week of October and he first week or so of November. But I can make anytime work.
