    If you like BBQ, you HAVE to make it. Grand Champion BBQ is the best I have ever had. Look them up.

    Never replied about parking. Is it just going to be the lot up front, and back by the dynos in the grass? or has it expanded.

    I'm sorry. We will be using the body shop and auto repair business next door for extra parking. We will have people directing traffic depending on if you are going to be putting your car on the dyno or not. We have cleared a lot of the cars here out to make room.

    Had a great time at the event. Great food and tons of nice cars.
    The LFA was sweet. Owner was a really nice guy.

    I have a bunch of pics / video to post.

    LFA was pretty sweet....a Tundra kept wanting to jump off the Dyno earlier in the day.

    I'll eventually get things uploaded

    Everything there read lower than it should have. I think its just a low reading dyno. apparently Sharrifs '11 STI pulled 19x stock.

    Not 1600whp... I had to stop tuning it at 700whp until she upgrades the transmission.

    Heard a new stock turbo GTR record was set though.

    Nice video, that's a good spot u had. The yellow Audi s4 wagon was pretty impressive. I was there for only a couple hours and left after they dyno'd the LFA.

    I was standing on a chair leaning against the big blue Snap On toolbox. I knew they were putting that on the dyno at 1:15, so I grabbed a good spot early

    I made sure I had a spot on the backside of the LFA. I could listen to that music all day long.

    I had the yellow bugeye there. Did anyone happen to take any pictures of her?

    I heard a GTR Doug just tuned hit over 600whp on stock turbos at the dyno day today. If so thats freaking awesome.

    Wish I could have been there but we are just to busy right now. Looks like everyone had a good time.
