What do you mean?

No. Actually it's making me think a lot about keeping the car and just getting a new shell, fixing its small problems, and of course up grade

So we'll see.

You would have about the same amount of use for it as her than correct. Cash to support other things?

Just give the intake to Peter as payment for the eighty bones.

Sadly enough my elbow and knee hardly hurt, but I somehow bent back my big toenail and it's still throbbing like a bitch. I was finally getting comfortable with taking corners at speed on the thing and it bit me. I for sure am never owning a motorcycle, ever. I'll gladly take the safety and comfort of 4 wheels, full body, racing seat and a 5-point harness any day.

GOOD TIME!!! Thx for the event it rocked. I got 2 passes to RF, which is cool. I really wanted the head studs though so i could throw more boost at my car it only has to last 3 more months!!!
Great to see you all.

Hince why I gave the scooter back to chris right away.
I wouldn't have respect for it and would eventually end up biting the ground. I am a 4 wheel 5 point harness kind of guy.

I found out the hard way on my motorcycle last year.

Those pictures have me missing MN. I remember the first DSMStyle Dyno day at elite. It was a blast and went long into the night. (mainly because of Nash taking 50 pulls. LOL )
I hope you all had a lot of fun.

I've spoken to a few people and got some mixed reviews, but overall it seems like it was a well received event. I'm disapointed in the actuall turnout in cars but there isn't much I can do abotu that right now. A fall event is being planned and we already have some changes that will be taking place from the sounds of it.

I want to give a few special thanks:

Dan and Shane. Thanks for hosting and being there on a hot day when so much else was packed into the weekend all over the cities. It's a great show of support and we can't thank you guys enough.

LSE & Brookdale. LSE was nice enough tto bring there grill as a back up and provide the tow strap. Not to mention some kick ass door prizes. Brookdale also provides some door prizes. It just awesome of you guys to do that!

Chris, Mark, Nash, & Matt D. Sounds like you guys put together a hell of an event. WIth the only confusion being scheduling of who dyno's when could only be solved if we had more members take advanatage of the dyno day. Thanks so much for stepping up while we boogied out of state.

Thanks guys!

I was j/k'in it up at this line. Don't be mad Tauni!

s1ngletracker · 07-24-2006

I musta just missed the prize drawing. Nice to meet some more people, and a few more 3/S punks

As always I too got a suburn.

slowbubblecar · 07-24-2006

I would love if we had one more fall event as I might be able to bring out my new project when it arrives. My car wasn't quite ready yet unfortunatley but I had a lot of fun.

Jakey · 07-24-2006

It was good to see those of you who I had a chance to visit with. I wish the traffic back into Minneapolis on I-94 hadn't been such a nightmare. It took me just over an hour to get from DB to the Marriott City Center. Thanks to all who put things together for the day!

thesoccadude · 07-25-2006

yay. my boost leaking 189 whp vr4 made it in a few pics!

Shane55113 · 07-25-2006

I wish i had the cash to throw my car up on the dyno, but i was broke as a joke. Yeah that was a ton of fun, can't wait to go to the mitsu cookout soon.

I still don't get it

**Halon** · 07-25-2006

What kind of mixed reviews did you get Allan? I guess I saw everyone having a great time there. I'm sorry I had to back out at the last minute, but I think I snapped a shift fork Saturday night, so there really wasn't much I could do.

I'm guessing that the downside of things was the number of cars that dynoed. I think they were hoping for 10-15 cars on the dyno. I think there was less than 10 cars that went on they dyno.

I think the organizing of the event was well done. And the prizes given away were top notch!
