Smile Dyno Day in the Bay Area (Milpitas, CA) - anyone?

I am trying to see if there is interest in a dyno day in the Bay Area (Milpitas, CA)
Pretty hard to find a spot on the weekends around the Bay Area.

I reached out to a shop there and they will do it for us on a weekend if they get 10 ppl. (I got a heavily discounted price)
$50 each which includes 3 Base Runs with AFR metering as well.

They have a DynaPack Dyno
It would be great to get a few C63's on there to see how they compare.

I was thinking of maybe Saturday 17'th or 24'th of December.
Anyone interested?

Weather for the 17th
Sunny. Cool. High 61°F / Low 42°F / 52% Humidity

Here is the info on the location
Latitude ,Longitude ,Meters ,Sea-level
0,37.405277 ,-121.89725099999998 ,11.430 ,37.500 Feet


On the list

PM me when the date is final.

I may be free and $50 is worth a look at my tune from some guys from Germany.

I would say if we can get 2 more people we should pull the trigger.

Also this would be amazing to test our cars on the same day with the same dyno/
Better yet, being a Dynapack we don't have to worry about wheel/rolling resistance.

I will "cough" bring some snacks and "refreshments'

I'm still breaking the car in so dyno runs might not be a good idea yet. I want to get it done at somepoint though to see how it relates to the quoted numbers.

We lost out on the 17'th and the 24'th(xmas and all).

I am getting new available dates from him now. I also gave him a deposit to secure all 3 dates he will send.

I just got off the phone with him and he will email it to me around noon when he gets done with a clients car.
