I'd like to go second or third.

Hopefully someone that knows how to code shows up. Frankly, I'm just too lazy to sift through all the online material to know how. I'm sure you guys are the same lol


Please be sure to bring your dyno waiver forms. I'm sure the TTFS squad would appreciate just having to collect them rather than run back and print out copies.

Also, I'm sure you guys may have noticed that their facility uses a Dynocom dyno (apparently the latest and greatest one). Some of you may have heard that the Dynocom is called the "heartbreaker" since it reads a bit lower than typical Dynojet. However, I have been assured that the dyno is calibrated for BMWs to the same spec as a Dynojet and they've had a customer dyno on both machines (on the same day) to within a 5hp variance.

I'll also try and record everyone's pulls on my gopro/mic setup so you also have something cool to show off.

Cant wait!!!

If possible, I'd like to be one of the earlier runs. I'm not sure how long I will be able to stay Sunday.

You can take mine... not that there are really "spots"

I'm sure we can all talk and figure it out in the morning based on everyone's schedules.

I'm pretty excited for Sunday! I've only ever had one car on a dyno before.
It'll be even better with EALm4 recording the runs for us!

Can I bring my POS E36 instead? I'm more interested how much power still left in my old car, since I've already seen countless dyno sheets for a stock F80. Besides, it'll be boring to see a same car (M3/M4) run after a run. Also, I never had used dyno services before so I'd rather try it out first in my old car.

Btw I can bring my cable and a laptop. I've only coded some things in my car so I'm bit of a noob, but I can try.

Do we already have a rendezvous point for caravaning for people coming from north? I was thinking someplace near where 695 & 95 meets, since I'll be coming from Pikesville area.

I'm cool to meet at Canton car wash.

ATTENTION:

I just got off the phone with Justin at TTFS and they had an incident today where power to their shop was cut off and apparently something was damaged during the thunderstorm today. As of now they are unable to restore power to the shop and their landlord said the earliest they can get someone out to inspect the building is Monday.


Being such the the dyno day has to be postponed.

While this is disappointing it's out of their hands.


We have a couple options:
1) Reschedule
2) Cancel and get a full refund and I'll send you guys back the money
3) Find a new venue
4) other.........
