My vote would be for MAC as well. I doubt we could get something put together this quickly, but it is worth a shot. Also, keep in mind that this comming Saturday is Labor Day weekend.

Karl, if you wouldn't mind, could you do that please? Just find out what day would be best for him and prices :) We will assume that about ten cars will show up but make sure he knows that can change at any time. :) Thank you!!!

Last time we (coSRToc) did a dyno day at MAC, they charged $45 or $50 for 3 pulls, no tuning allowed. Nick was awesome as always, but Bill is running a business and had a knack for making us feel as if he could care less that we were filling up his shop for a day. This year we'll be having our dyno day at PFI in Ft. Collins. Real good prices, they support our club, and from what people that have been to the shop say, they're real cool people. Down sides are the shop isn't as nice as MAC and the dyno isn't AWD.

We could also try Street Concepts. Mike B is our connection to the place, so I'll give him a call.

Yeah sorry but I don't want to exclude anyone on this dyno...so an AWD dyno is a requirement.

Street Concepts does not have a dyno

I was joking... dynoing an awd car with the ebrake up to disengage the rear transfer is probably the dumbest thing Ive heard anybody doing... Id love to see somebody try it though

Grrr.... okeydokie, so we need a dyno shop that is available on a Saturday to host about 10 cars with an AWD option. Perferably anywhere between Fort Collins and Colorado Springs since people seem to be okay with traveling a bit to get there. Other ideas???

No problem. I was planning on calling him tomorrow anyway, still got some work left to do on my Ride. I doubt we can pull this off for this coming Labor Day weekend, especially if we're gonna reserve the dyno for most of the day. Its also key that we get this well organinzed and get real commitments.
