XKR, Rude, Quick, and Darren have no excuse for not attending....especially since USN is making the trip.

The Dyno test is on Friday at UMS Tuning: http://www.umstuning.com/contact.html

Saturday's auto cross, 1/4 mile darg, and Time Attack is at Firebird International Raceway. http://www.firebirdraceway.com/web/contactus.html

Definately try to make the trip. I would like to meet you all, just to make sure you are real peoples.

Doesnt Rude live in Chandler? What about Darren and the Intense crew? I thought they were in the Mesa area or something like that.

Sharif wonders who this hooka is?

awesome. I mean, they should already know that, but still a good idea to re-enforce it.

I'll ask the usual local hooligans... I actually have to drive past Firebird everyday to and from work. I thought I saw them setting up the track for something this morning, but I doubt it's for this.

Good luck Sharif, travel safe. Bring the GTR back in one piece because I was assuming you'd let me take it down to starbucks when I come over on the 17th

i dunno, my shifting is pretty bad... even with paddles i could get confused and downshift when i was trying to upshift, etc..

Amazing. Glad to see that the rest of the industry is recognizing the work you guys do. Go dominate and bring us back a first place podium shot.

There are 3-4 hotels within 5 min of Firebird. Which would put you about 10-15 min from UMS.
