What a response! Yes this is going to be the Dyno Day of all Dyno Days.

Until the next one. We should just do 48 hours of DYNO runs!


Maybe I'll throw the TII on there and see what she'll do.

Did some one say Camaro?

This event has always been a lot of fun! It will be great to see all the RX8's on the dyno.

As Jedi mentioned, BHR has been in the planning phases for this event in terms of what we'll be up to. While the details are still being ironed out I can tell you that if you miss this event you'll be kicking yourself.

I'm really hoping it is!
I want to see a shootout between you and Ngo for top HP figures

the identity of that Pettit SC customer is being kept secret for the time being.
Konig: we can get you on early in the day, that shouldn't be a problem

yeah it is, we're setting the bar for everyone else out there!

with enough Monster Coffee drinks and Jager, anything is possible.

sure, he can come watch if he likes but dyno time is reserved for rotaries only.

I would love to sign up but shouldn't cars actually being tuned take priority over those just going on the dyno for kicks?

If space for a car that needs no tune, count me in

tilt; you bring up an excellent point.
Priority has always been given to AP owners and I did forget to put that in my original post. I've now updated post #1

For you non-AP guys, don't worry I'm not brushing you guys aside but since Jeff is coming all the way out to Cali it only makes sense to do it this way.
Keep in mind that Steve at SR Motorcars is a close friend so if need be we'll set something else up for a day of straight dyno pulls. I'll hook ya guys up

Honestly I'm going to be surprised if we're not strapping NA cars on the dyno Saturday night.

Having parts worth thousands and thousands of dollars and not even cracking 200rwhp in a "sports" car is what is concerning!

But yes, excited for this. It will be nice to match familiar names with unfamiliar faces!
