10-day forecasts are probably not too reliable, but this is hillarious (in a sick, sick way):

Weather guys will openly admit they can't predict 72 hours in advance, let alone a week into the future..

Let's wait and see..

I'm not worried about it. From what I hear, the new garage is huge. We can all hang out in there and wrench, drink and BS. The only concern would be muddy parking and spoiled photo shoots. It gives me great peace of mind to know the Swift's are offering us great all-weather facilities!!

dude, I just got MAF-d! and just in time for the fest thanks to Mike Murcia...Im going to try and dyno it next week and play with the fuel pressure/boost until its semi-safe as I think its running really rich right now...it scoots @ 17psi though...I think Ill be a little closer to the front of the pack this year

Sammy, Glad to hear it. I'm on the brink of MAF.. Danno's got me on his list, I want to check it out and get some feedback. It looks like you will be one of the guys who benefits from Fishey's dual scout setup..

Dan, are you looking at GURU's MAP kits? Mine is a Vitesse MAF with chips Danno burned so the MAF could be used with the stock turbo (originally inteded for use with the stage2 vitesse turbo), I gotta say he did an awesome job. Out of the box its feels great. The dyno may tell otherwise, but its all stuff that can be ironed out Im sure...Danno was very quick and helpful to me. ok enough hijack, back to the fest!

While I haven't seen it yet, Danno has promised me a Guru chip for a door prize. MAF is the next step for my car, but at this pace it may be a while. I've always had a lot of respect for the guy and hope to meet him someday. Can't wait to see the setup!!

Not sure I'd fit in..??!!
Was that someone else that had a few too many Rolling Rocks (?) at Hershey and handed over the master key to Rennlist?
