If anybody wants my cell number, shoot me an email, PM or IM (Akboost952 on AIM)...

Please everybody get there when your run group will be running...it will help make things flow much easier. I will post tomorow with a starting time and a more updated roster/run order list.

Looking forward to this even though my car wont be ready (bill is up to $8700! with only 6 hours of that on the frame machine. $1500 for a rear control arm, $1500 rear axle carrier...I should've supplied them with the parts and taken the difference). At least the weather is lookin good!!

Adrial, any chance they will have someone at the shop that can do a quick weld for me, or will they mostly be focused on the dyno.

I have a small hole in the crossover pipe from my own stupidity, not a crack, that I have been continually patching. I’m hoping someone can get to it without removing the entire cross pipe. Should take all of 10 minutes on the lift.

I guess I can ask on sat., not sure if they need a heads up…

I will be there, and I'm bringing my video camera so if anyone wants me to video their dyno run talk to me or adrial. Ill have my laptop and blank cd's so i can burn you a copy of it right there on the spot. I'll be leaving around 1:30 tho so i cant do anyone after that...gotta visit a girl on the island.

I would dyno, but it doesn't support miatas oh well, i get to watch porsches

Adrial...It really sucks about the car...let me know when it's ready and we'll go for a ride...test out the camera mount too!

John, I just talked to him. With the number of cars that they'll be shuffling around and everything probably not. But if you're willing to hang around till the end they'll give it a look see.

Here's the roster with run order:
<a href="http://members.rennlist.com/adrial/Porsche%20dyno%20day%20part%202%20June%202003.doc" target="_blank">http://members.rennlist.com/adrial/Porsche%20dyno%20day%20part%202%20June%202003.doc</a>

Run order is fixed in that it is 968's, then maybe 1 other car, then the 951's, then its a crapshoot with the roster as a general guide.

This thing is gonna get started at 10:00 AM

See you all then!

P.S. Yes, Ryan will be the general video camera bitch and will be able to burn anybody a CD of their dyno pull if they want it. And remember guys, he's driving a yellow miata so make fun of him as you feel necesary.

P.P.S. Bring cash

Adrial, thanks for asking. I'll probably hang around till the end and see if they can take a look.

Dan/Tom, and anyone else meeting at BK, since we don’t need to be there until 10pm, let’s plan on meeting at 9AM, instead of 8:30. Let me know if that’s okay with you guys.

Thanks again, Adrial, for organizing the Dyno Day for a second time. It'll be nice to catch up with everyone, and I'll get a chance to put some faces with some names (Ken) that I haven't met before. And you all get to eyeball the new cab, hope I do better on the dyno that with the coupe!!%&**())

wormhole- should i assume you know where you are going to/from deman and follow you or should i have my own directions ready? (also i will try to stop calling you wormhole in person)

andrew- i will call you in a bit but just incase i dont get you and you see this first, i will meet you at nassau coliseum between 8:15 and 8:30 which hopefully leaves us enough time to make it to wormhole and tom by 9 plus the bmwcca will be autocrossing there so there will be cars to look at

Sat Jun 28 Partly Cloudy 81°/61° 0 %

tom, you will be at bk then right?

hopefully i am going to go have my car washed right now, if not you will all have to keep your mouth shut about the dirt... black is hard to keep nice ok!? not to mention the rock chips and cracked stone guards <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />

if this starts at 10, ant the BK is listed as 1/2 hour away, meeting at 9 should get us there early. Lest meet at 9, and hope to be off by 9:15.

It isn't hard to get to the triborough from the cross island. it may be quicker that way. we can argue the merits of each route at the BK.

i am going to put a charge on the firebird tonight, and should see you guys at the BK tomorrow at 9.

Dan, if you leave the coliseum at 8:30 you should be at the BK around 9.

Take the meadowbrook parkway north, as it passes Roosevelt field stay in your left lane.

Take northern state west.

Northern state parkway becomes the Grand central so don't worry if names change.

Northern State west (not northern boulevard) to cross island north.

Cross island north for about three miles to northern boulevard West. BK is on your left. if a driving range is on your left and you see a chevy dealer on your right you went the wrong way. turn around on northern blvd and when you go over the highway, the BK is on you left.

Look for the red firebird convertible from your fathers high school days.

lets pm each other cell phones so we know how many at the BK

So far its
Tom - Me
John- Wormhole
Dan - Dan
Andy -

tom, the andrew i speak of is dualblade on rennlist. just left him a voicemail, so if he is reading this give me a call whenever tonight i probably will go to sleep around 1am and if i dont answer just leave a voicemail, ignore the really stoned sounding guy you hear on my outgoing message !

my dad drove a firebird in his highschool days but not a convertible

will these directions be faster than taking the LIE ?

"LIE West to cross island parkway, it is past port washington, past roslyn road, past lakeville exits. i think i listed them in the correct order.

cross island parkway north about 1 mile to northern boulevard west.

as soon as you get off the exit, the BK should be on your left."

just trying to stick with roads i know..... god im such a woman!
