You know I'm in as long as it gets scheduled for before I leave. I'll be around the first week or so of September, then I'll be in Texas. Hopefully we get this set up before then, I REALLY want to have this thing finished before I leave for school.

@Dezoris should fly out just to hang out. We can make some videos haha!
If you guys get a dyno rented and Tony whored out for a tuning day let me know. I might figure out a way to come down.

But if Tony isn't gonna make it out until late September, I'm not gonna come back for the dyno day. It's an 850 mile drive from San Angelou to Scottsdale, not happening.

Of course, makes sense to me. The sooner everyone jumps on board the better. As Marin has said if no one else really confirms we are both still going for it. Having Toni come down here and tune in person is the way to go on any car.

It would take me about 11 hours. The drive from here to home is 872 miles and takes me 11.5 hours, so its not undoable, but would be a shitty shitty day of driving.

I got your PM and i want to talk to you a bit more about your upcoming work and having you come up here. Your car will be an extremely ideal comparison to the other boosted cars so there should be "extra" appeal. You and me are looking at similar future setups. For the dyno I am going to just try E85 & E10 for comparison against Keith if we can wing it quick enough. That and hte rest of the car stock for a fair comparison. Having your end should give a nice look at "potential"!!! Can you PM me your # at some point? I want to ask a few questions before i talk to tony.

MMMM this is going to have epic written all over it with the "staging" we can put on the dyno of different mods for boost / NA.

Like fly down, or take the car...? So far its starting to look positive. I will be setting up a call with Toni here shortly once I hear back from the dyno no my quote. I would love to have you come down. I don't know if you film for someone else... but i have plenty of equip here we can setup. It would be pretty epic to have you involved.

If it happens past september for some odd reason (and i hope to got it doesn't!!!!) i would consider flying out and helping you make the drive if you wanted. All i have is a couch for sleeping space but hell ill even sleep on the couch and you can crash at my place. So if you want to be included and somehow its too far out we will find a way. But it is starting to look more and more like its going to happen. Can you text me your last possible day you could do this? and give me an idea what your work schedule is like? Thanks man!

Guys this is starting to look pretty good. Please get back to me with PM's asap so i can get the initial ball rolling. By the end of the week i should have an actual idea of pricing and will setup a thread with a roster & pricing. From there we can discuss times & dates for everyone and see if we can turn this into a fun party. I am sure we can arrange a nice grill setup & make it into a large meet / event.

On a totally unrelated note:

TUCSON PEOPLE (and anyone else who wants to come down):

Sir Vezas on Speedway Blvd

Who's coming? We need a decent showing so I can get some good pictures of the Tucson crowd.

Props to Marin(nelsmar) for mentioning Arizona Auto Trends. If you guys need anything that is tire/wheel related I highly recommend going there and talking to Cruz.
