About two years ago, a few of us in Socal got together for a dyno day and had a lot of fun. Since then I have made a few changes to the car so I thought it is time to do a few more pulls and found a very reputable shop in Los Angeles that can do the job as they have a Dynojet, as well as a 4WD Dynapack on site. I also was able to get them to give us a good price of $50 for 3 pulls and if we can get enough people to attend, they would even do a BBQ lunch for us. I'm thinking of Feb. 27th and would like to know how many are interested in attending.

Bruce, I would be there, but I'm scheduled to be out of town that weekend. I put my car on the Stillen dyno about a year and a half ago and would like to get another readout for the heck of it. Best pull that day with Stillen exhaust as only mod was 557 at the wheels.

If that weekend doesn't work for most of you guys, I can see if we can change the schedule. We just need to agree on a good day pretty soon.
BTW, last time I had my car dyno'd the temps was high so I'm curious what it'll do in cooler temps. I also didn't have race gas in the tank but I think I'll come with race gas and change the tune while on the dyno so that I can both a 91 and a 100 graph to see the difference.

The shop that will be doing the dyno, DC Performance informed me that they already have about 10 GT's coming so the date of Feb. 27th is set in stone. Hope more of you can come out. Here's a link to another Dyno day I participated with my Viper over there:

Come on out guys as $50 is a good deal and even if you don't intend to dyno your car, still come out and hang out with fellow GT owners.

Hey guys, I know Dan very well. He is the Viper Guru in the western US. Has a great shop, easy of the I-10 and Robertson. You will have a great time, he provides coffee and stuff. Shop is also in a cul-de-sac so there is no hassle with on going traffic, etc.

Here is the web site

http://www.dcperformance.com/

I would encourage you to drop buy. An exceptionally nice individual!

If I am in town I will be there I am 4 miles away.

I am really bummed. Our Sheriff's Department exercise that was scheduled for last Saturday was move to this coming Santurday, so I will be flying my plane rather then dynoing my GT.
