new page so I'm reposting to make sure everyone sees this:
Even if by some miracle we do not get rain (which I HIGHLY doubt, change #2 will still be in effect)
Major Announcements
With the event only 4 days away, I want to let everyone know of the following changes.
1. The Standby list for both Saturday and Sunday has been eliminated
Due to rain in the forecast and the VERY limited space we will have at SR Motorcars, I'd like to minimize the number of people at this event to active dyno participants and those having installs / services performed by BHR / SR only.
The rain has thrown us a curve ball this year and for safety reasons I simply cannot have 50+ people crammed into a dyno bay while we tune cars or have everyone crowding SR's small customer lobby.
If your are not listed in the 1st post, I encourage you to tune in via our live webcast instead.
Thanks everyone, hope to see you this weekend or chat with you online.

I zoom therefore I am.
please keep in mind. If you are a single (or open to cheating) hot girl and wearing a very sheer top, you're very welcome to stand just outside the shop in the rain. Just putting that out there.

Yup you are likly to encounter snow on your way in....I am hoping not to as the really bad stuff is not supposed to hit until Friday evening. The weather peeps are calling for snow showers in Vegas on Saturday so I am worried about getting over the pass and home on Sunday.
I will look for some locally and bring it with me.
Quick note to the FI guys:
Wanna make tuning easier for me and less scary for you?
Come to the event with only a half-tank of gas or slightly less and stop at Home Depot or Lowes on the way and pick up a single gallon of xylene from the paint department.
Think of it as liquid insurance.
I don't tune for it, but it allows me to go for tighter AFRs and timing quicker because I don't have to be so cautious, worrying about the quality of SoCal gas.

What should people be bringing for the group? I already bought a case of water and a large pack of small bags of chips. I can bring other stuff as well if anyone is maintaining a list and can tell me what is needed. Is beer going to be allowed?

map: I believe a few people are bringing donuts, those typically are popular in the mornings.
water / drinks are a good idea as well, it'll be a long day.
I'd like to shy away from alcohol as some people got too carried away with the drinking last year.
