    You mean we're not getting our checked, too? Dang, I cleaned up for nothing.

    I learned this the hard way.....

    Take all of your valuables out of your car at night. This includes taking the mounting hardware off of your windshield or dash and hiding the power supplies. I lost over $ 1,000 to a thief with no hope of recovering my items and to top if off they smashed my window in the rain and my truck got soaked. Let my loss be your learning experience.

He could have just as easily told us to all be there at 10 and plan to stay as late as 3.

    It's not like this event is spur of the moment. We've had plenty of time to clear our schedules.
    That's what I thought this was gonna be, we'd get there and just hang out to see who did what and chat. Seems like now a few of us have our panties in a wad over when we're running, I'm sure if you've got plans for something later on the same day you'd be able to swap with someone. I personally don't care what time I run, I'm goin' to hang out and have a good time.

    Crap, sorry guys, I feel like I am the cause of this. Please don't cancel guys.

    I just realized that while I might be willing to hang all day and shoot-the-breeze, my buddies wouldn't be so willing. Plus, one guy asked me what time it would run, he wants to come up, see my car on the dyno and leave (not that my car is exciting in any way...)

    I'll be up there around 10 and hope for an 11:00ish run. If it doesn't happen, I'll stick around until it does or go grab lunch and come back. I'll just see if my buddies can be more flexible.

    OK all I want to know is are we doing OTM's last? I'm fine with that as this is a Miata Dyno day and it will make it easier on Aaron for set up reasons, but I just want to know if I should show up early or after lunch. The already gave me the evil eye as per her the house renovation is taking too long. So all day with the boys could mean a free evening.

    brg can have my spot. I've been w/out electricity (breaker box blew) for 3 days and now it's back on but realizing it's the heater that caused it so I may be sitting around waiting for a heater guy to show up. I'll try to make it to hang out but we'll see if I have the time to dyno. Sorry Aaron, I know this is late notice.

    Mine made almost 99hp in the fall of 04' with over 200k.

    I'll be coming by, I'm not sure if the timing will be right to dyno. Gonna try though.

    Looks like I'm out guys. Gotta stay home with the boys this morning since my wife is sick, plus my prior commitment for this evening actually starts at 2, not 6. Can't please anyone today!

    I really, really wanted to go to this today. But I'm still coughing lung oysters up and don't think it would be a good idea. Pneumonia sucks. Look forward to the results; especially Geckotek's.

    That's better than I thought. Mine should be similar with RB header, stock midpipe, FM exhaust, K&N drop-in filter. Thanks Geckotek!
