Nah, I'm just playing. I dont care if I never drive another automatic 2slowty in my life. I had my fill of the auto trannies. Since you are staying auto, are you planning on getting a upgraded torque converter or new rear end gears (like some 4.63's :evilhaha)??

sweet. The auto's dont do too shaby with nitrous. Chris ran like a 14.2 w/ his '95 with a 75 shot, cat-back and short ram on street tires. Said it shifted hard and fast. Made me want to get some of the gas for my auto, but nahh

From where I'm sittin right now, Perth Amboy and New Brunswick are 25/35 mins away, respectively.

However I recently moved to SOUTH (as in too far south) Jersey. I'm at exit 44 on the parkway, 15 mins outside Atlantic City.

I'm excited, this will be the first NICO meet I come out to...plus I can't really race so it will be funny watching me make an *** of myself.

Sky, if you wanna cartel down there hit me up, I'm close to Delaware and am sure I'll have to pass through.

I checked out the Baymont Inn and the rooms look pretty decent...better than Motel 6, but also more expensive. There are quite a few hotels in the area, so I need some input as to how much you guys want to spend, etc. The regular price is $59 a night, but I'm going to call today and see about a group deal.

But, if you want to get on Expedia yourself and book it, it's only $49 with some Blue Sky Special. I'll obviously keep everyone informed as to any new info that I receive.

And, please feel free to give me input as to what is most important to you in a hotel for that weekend.

Hey Chris,Did you ever find out about a group rate on the Dyno.Ive got this meet posted on many other boards and several people are interested but the price is a big factor.With the cost of the drive there,Corvette Museum,track, and hotel without a discount on the dyno most wont be able to spend the extra cash.

Are we planning on going in the Corvette Museum? What day? Sat. or Sun.?

Anyways, I'll call about the dyno today. I don't think too many people except those with some pretty good power will want to get on it, but it will be fun to watch for everyone. I might be able to get some people here in town interested if we're not able to get enough people. All we need is a couple willing to pay...because it lasts awhile for each car.

There would be absolutely no point in putting my car on a dyno right now. I don't even know if it would turn the roller! LOL.

I plan to be there if I can get out of work that day. I'm going into the car business and we have to work Saturdays. I get every other Saturday off, but we'll see.

MORE DYNO INFO

If you would like to dyno, I will need the money in advance...$35 via paypal would be easiest, but money orders will do as well.

send to: [email protected]

If you want to dyno....hurry up and get the money in so I can reserve the day!!!!!!

ONLY $35 for 3 runs....and who cares what you put down...plenty of people would like to see what mods do what for REAL. Hel!, I'd love to see stock ones run just to see.

How close are we to 15 Chris? I am down for $35 but I am not too keen on $60 cause I can dyno up here for cheaper than that.

Nick, Repo, Sim and rydwhite-

Do you want to get a caravan going from Indy to Louisville? I am sure there will be a pre-meet down in Louisville before we make the trek down to Bowling Green. I plan on going to this meet.

Chris-When would the dyno take place? I could be interested to see what the WRX will now do with a free'ed up exhaust.

haha hell I doubt I can afford to go. . But that wheel does make my car quicker. . btw, I've been sporting a large hole in the bottom of it, as well. . and it's not too bad. . haha. . it's like. . a speed hole.

gotta git tha cruise working . . I'm NOT giving up on the button idea. . I checked the switch, and it turns out it's just the wiring. . in other words, my assumptions about the wiring were wrong. . so now I just have to find out where to wire what to. . . . but nobody seems to know haha

I am up for a caravan for Indy if I can make it. It looks like I may have something coming up on Saturday. For now, count me in though. Hopefully my schedule will be clear, but I can't really make any guarantees that I can make it.
