Dyno Day? I so want to be there. Better start saving my nickels now.
Lack of an available AWD Dyno.
Hmm 848 miles / 14 hours. Considering I took 5 years away from the car and have never been to an NG, this just might need to happen.
DO it, DO it, DO it.
Sorry, I respect a persons right to make their own decisions. Not that I condone what may or may not come from their poor decision(s), but it is still their right to choose. Feel free to PM me if you'd like to continue this discussion.
on topic:
What are the dyno costs looking to be? I've never put the car on one before and have no idea what to expect with it.
I usually pay $60 for 3 runs...
We do not have any costs for NG13 worked out, nor would I even begin to post an estimate because someone would come back and hold me to it. We'll post prices when we have them.
Guys, really. Stop the judgements. I had ONE lapse. Give me a f'in break. Seriously. I've had enough. First John makes his judgements, then I'm called an idiot?! Enough. Way to kill a great thread with a lot of enthusiasm about an event that I've already put tens of hours into making a reality.
i think dyno day should be toward the end, so even the weekenders can be there!
All I see in this thread is enthusiasm, were there deleted posts?
I will love to do a few dyno runs!
k would my lil pos dsm be aloud on there?
getting so jacked for this , going to follow alans 20 bucks a week plan ! and thej throw in some at tax returns...
i did have one uestions though , im a paranoid person what do you all do for security of said race cars from being vandalized or parts robbed during the night? i doubt i will be able to bring an enclosed trailer
^ i hope so blue cause mine is comin no matter what :)
Truthfully? The guys hang out in the parking lot so late that even the last hotel, which supplied security, gave up on the idea. It was a waste of money because our guys were out until 4am or so, then back out at 8am. We usually let the local police know we'll be there and they do a bunch of drive-bys. Never had an issue.
In guessing signups and ability to pay won't happen till after the first of the year?
will they dyno a shopping cart?
Sean and I will be there
No idea yet. It depends on how many things are added and how Alan's time goes. It looks like we're going to St. Louis for Labor Day. After that, we'll know more and we'll make some tentative announcements, as well as some definitive announcements. Right now it's WAY too early for us to know much. Normally we would've had the track set for 2013 by May or so, at the latest. So right now we're running behind schedule, trying really hard to catch up. And I'm getting there. We just need some time and patience. Moving this event is a HUGE undertaking, and requires a whole lot of time, which I really don't have right now. But somehow it's getting done, thanks in part to the St. Louis crew who has been there to help with everything I could need. As long as that keeps up, we're going to be ok. Just patience, Kev... I appreciate that you're excited to sign up. I REALLY do. But we're not there yet. we don't even have all the events in place yet (new stuff).
Im going to make it this time. Will not be hauling two cars without a CDL this time either. I have a 24' enclosed air conditioned hauler for this trip :) Now, Just got to get my car finished. Kids are going to be excited.

I really hope we'll have an amazing turnout for this one. I have soooo many things planned that I just can't tell you YET... But it's all coming. St. Louis will include things we've never been able to do before (like the Dyno Day!), and things for the entire family. You're all going to LOVE this event! As you know, we were behind schedule in getting it all set up, so I've been working like a mad woman to get caught up AND plan all the new stuff, but it's all falling right into place now. We'll be in St. Louis over Labor Day weekend, so look for more announcements soon thereafter! Can't wait!!! Is it July 2013 yet??? Alan, let's get that clock rolling!
Can't wait Lori !

Sweet, 325 days till NG, i average 300/day at work. Hopefully another 100k will mean my damn car will be there this year...:lol:
Jason
Lori with there being more events does this mean that some will go on at the same time? Like some thing for those to do that don't like watching autocross and road course?
I can think of two things better than watching RC or AutoX. Participating in each :)
Jason
Hey alan... What calendar are we using to figure how many days until the next NG? I'm seeing 326 days and some change???
I see 326 too. It does in browser using your computers date. I think Jason has the wrong date on what ever device he was using.
