OK Rose I fixed it.

OK so the latest update is the shop that I have contacted has to let us know when and if they can host this event. So waiting for their response.

Here is the link for this particular shop:

http://www.goodies-speedshop.com/2007/index.html

Hopefully this will work with them but if not we have to find another one. I know there are few shops mentioned earlier and I will try contacting them one at a time If this doesn't work with the above linked shop.

Sharo,

Thanks for doing the leg-work and coordinating with the shops. Please let us know if you need some help.

Was the price/hour of the dyno discussed with this shop?

Thanks for asking and no price has been determined and or mentioned/quoted as of yet.

The shop's owner is suppose to contact me with possible dates and hourly dyno charge.

I have talked to Jan, his tunning price is $350.00 per car then there is the price of the 1 hour per car/member we have to pay the shop for the dyno use, whatever that price is, is yet to be determined by the shop owner.

I think those would be for per one car basis pricing. However, I'm thinking/hoping that the pricing could be different/lower when there are multiple cars in a package deal.

Please read through the recent posts in this thread. As I have stated few times already in earlier posts above, no dates confirmed yet. The shop and Jan need to get the timing down.

I feel like koo koo clock.

Would it be too optimistic for me to presume that Jupiter has aligned with Mars and this will be happening in the latter part of this week? I'm just itching to see what Jan can do with our cars!

OK some updates,

The shop is ready to go as long as we can get them one week notice. Therefore Jan needs to let us all know when he can come up here in the next 2-3 weeks perhaps and we are good to go.

The cost and deposits issue I will leave to Jan in how he wants to have this taken care of.

Also, I know this has taken more time to develop than expected but by the way Jan is being asked to travel all over country, just like as a ROCK STAR, to bless everyone with his tune we have to be patient and grateful that this will hopefully come to fruitation soon.

Thanks, Sharo!

Since you're the de facto contact person with Jan for this group, would you mind coordinating with his schedule for our tune? Jan doesn't need all of us impatient types bombarding him with individual messages. Got a new serpentine belt, new engine oil, new spark plugs, and a slightly used W2A IC, and I am rearing for the tune and rooting for next week if possible!

de facto,,, aha,,,,that's right, that's me, but don't wear it out now,,,,

OK kidding aside, I'm not sure about being the de facto thingi, but I'm on top of everything right now. Just need Jan to tell us when and we're good to go.

OK just hung up the phone with Jan. He is very very busy as usual. Planning on going to Hawaii tomorrow and will be back on Monday the 18th. He said he is also working on some racing stuff and after that he would like to take few days off.

We will revisit the timing issue next week when he comes back to set the date. I'm only going to guess and say that it looks as if it "could", don't hold me on this" be the end of this month and perhaps even the 1st week of March.

So, cross your fingers everyone and thank you for being patient.

Sharo

It seems I've heard something like this before, but there were flying monkeys in the story & it went something like this "No one gets into see the wizard, not no how,not no way. hope it happens before AMVIV.

It is going to be at this shop. Since they feel comfortable accommodating larger crowds/racers of all sorts including drag cars racers and have all the tools and means to get this going.
