I went by there with the kid and wifey. Did not hang around too much but a subaru sti blew a head gasket and then the GT-R was up next for dyno. I think I saw a couple GT-R, GT500, CTS-V and ton of subaru and evo. They had a bbq grill selling $5 hamburgers and still had a bunch of people when I showed up around 4pm. No pictures since I was lazy and just strolling with the kid.

What did the GTR pull And the CTS-V ?

I can't believe they were charging for the food !

What a crock of $hit...before it was all free....And to charge $5 bucks for a crappy burger....WTF ?

I will never show up there again !

Free food for first 200 folks which I think is pretty fair and by 1:30pm they had handed out all the 200 tickets. I would love for them to feed everyone for free but I doubt that would happen. Imagine the line of homeless folks and bums lining up on dyno day for freee burgers.

edit: I skipped the burger at the place and before hand went to fuddfcukers with wifey and got a proper 1/2lb Texas Burger.

Nice to see everyone again and new faces as well. Post up some pictures. I'll be glad not to wait 8 hours for a dyno though. Crazy that many people showed up to that meet. I wonder how many people actually dyno'd.

Lol the Harlem shake is really blowing up. I like how the little kid just stares at the tiger dance. Hilarious. The funniest one I've seen is probably the firefighters one in the truck.

Harlem Shake = Pure Gheyness !

Q, you need to come out to an event with your G-37.....Burn that **** up out there...you won't hurt the G.

Travis, are you signed up for the PCA AutoX at Crandall this Sunday ?

Last day of 3 day weekend and I am numb as Sh*t with 4 fillings/cleaning and a bunch of anesthesia and I am now $485 lighter in my wallet and numb as hell. This freaking doctors just want to shoot/drill into me and take all my money.

Nope.....with Austin trip and just like everyone else it seems dropping a lot lately at dentist. Root canal first part of march and then bond to 4 teeth to level them.....since its considered cosmetic insurance doesn't cover it....$200 a tooth. And I think one reason I dyno'd low is dirty air filters....haven't cleaned and oiled in a year. I am hoping that when I retune after cleaning filters to be back where I was but hoping for 280
