    I like the one topspeed did. I say their our battleground. Where is battle ground?

    No offense scott but unless we have 4 our 5 dynoing I think we need the dyno jet not the pak.

    Battleground is basically right off the Armore Drive Exit on the HW 13 access road deal next to 85. If you are familiar with the Ansley/Midtown area, you shoud know the general area I am talking about.

    Unless they've moved, that is where I last remember seeing their shop. They're right nextdoor to a buddy of mine's studio.

    I voted Topspeed only because of the changeover time on a dynapak.

    consistentcy on a dyno really counts. for the guys that did dyno @ topspeed last time, they would be better off. even better since porter rocks!

    TOPSPEED. they did us well last time. i say we take it back there. lots of parking, they can dedicated time to us like last time and there have been alot more people on the site since then, i dont think that this time will be any different. More people, more cars, more food, more beer, earlier start time, bring parts to sell, do more installs, tell more jokes, smoke more smokes. TOPSPEED.

    actually batlground motorsports is on atlanta blvd next to dobbins AFB and Lockheed. My question is how many pulls do you get and how much will it cost. Also, I would definately say Topspeed or Batlgound because of the time. 30-40 min per car is far to long...it would take a week to get through everyone.

    last time knowledge talked to me about hosting a dyno day at their shop... they said that though they have dynapak, they will get a significant amount to help to get at least 20 cars through... they were also ready to match the $40 price... i thought it might be a nice change to do it somewhere else this time... also its nice to run on the same dyno for comparisons but keep in mind that changes in weather will affect ur numbers just the same

    if everyone still wants to do it again at topspeed, then i won't try to talk to knowledge

    almost any saturday is good for me... however, 21st is the headlight baking day and 28th is the mountain run...

    mike: if u have time, make the calls and see what people have to offer

    matt: if u could get a price, dates and info on extras like food, etc. from batlground, that would be cool
     
  22. sti4u2nv

    sti4u2nv Member

    I'm sure pricing and extras will also be affected by number of people. So, assuming we found a date that worked for everyone, what is our head count so far. I'm definately in.

    I believe milo is right....weather is as much a factor as keeping dyno consistancy. Besides who's to say that topspeed's dyno is calibrated just the same as it was the last time. However, changing dyno type all together might make a more significant difference.

    As always, we're all about it!

    We'd love the opportunity to host you guys at the shop again. We can cook out again as always, Giovanni's always up for those rosemary burgers. :D Maybe we can grill up some chicken or some brats next time as well.

    We'll have the dyno rolling any weekend you guys want to do this, we have another mechanic now (w00t!) so there will be no time conflicts with anything dyno-related. We did ~23 cars in a day the last time around and should be able to easily match or beat that if there are enough cars. With the extra set of hands we can cycle through with a quickness and actually take more time on the dyno per car. :D

    Thanks again fellas, we love you guys!

    I would say Topspeed. They have been good to us in the past, they have earned our patronage.

    I talked to Tracy this afternoon, she was very excited about the idea of hosting a dyno day, if not this one then possibly one in the future.

    $40 a car

    Ill take care of the grilling.

    OK everyone. I will try to coordinate a date that will work for as many people as possible. We'll try to keep this organized. Everyone who wants to go, PM me your top 4 saturdays that you want dyno day. No earlier than may 21, but it seems like peeps want it in june. If you don't care the day PM that. If you have 1 or 2 definately no dates, send it and I'll try to consider it.
