Default GAUGING INTEREST: Dyno & Tune day @ Slowboy Racing w/ Bobby Ralston!

I posted this over on g35driver, but I wanted to let you all know as well, because this event is for both G's and Z's!!!

Exclusive for G and Z drivers!

Marti Ruiz, Manager at Slowboy Racing, has offered his shop to us for a Sunday to tune & dyno our cars on their brand new dyno! Bobby Ralston of S&R Performance will be coming up from Tampa to tune our cars!

There will be vendors, raffles, food, drinks, & entertainment!!!

Marti will be posting with specific information about the dyno, but until then, this is just to gauge interest. We need to have at LEAST 10 people commit so this event can be a success.

The date will be a Sunday toward mid- to late-June. Specifics will be finalized after we make sure we have enough people to participate. This will give everyone enough time between then and now to install all your new parts!!

We don't have an exact cost yet, but please be aware that this event will require a non-refundable deposit to ensure your spot in line (Unfortunately we have a lot of people sign up for events and then don't show up).

Ok I finally have an update!!

We're looking at:
$5 spectating/eating foodz
$50 for 2 dyno pulls
$60-65 for 2 dyno pulls w/ AFR
$695 for a full tune

Info on the dyno:

Originally Posted by Matt@Slowboy

We can start as early as 9am, depending on how many cars show up.

PLEASE READ!!!!! If your name is on the list, please confirm that you will be there on Sunday, June 13th. If you cannot make it, please take your name off the list! If your name is not on the list but you would like to go, please sign up!!! Thanks :2:
