Yup that is what I mean. By that time my Evo mods will be done and we can put them on the same dyno the same day. I don't think it's ever been done? I am curious to see how far apart they will be. I'm not sure who will win? The only issue is that my car will have a few more things done to the engine by Evo than just stage 1 & 2.
I'm sure the K car will have a few other things as well.

On a side note, my friend and I are staying down there after the meet to go dancing in H.B. if you guys want to join.

Let me see what i can find and will let you know. But that should definitely be an interesting comparison. Are you going to start up a new thread with the official date, time etc...?

I will start a new clean thread on Friday with the location and time. If I can't pin those guys down by then I will pick a new spot. It should be a fun meet.

That'll barely get you into something decent in V.C. Think 2K and up.

Hey guys here is the status of the meet. Evosport is not an option for a big meet. Only a handful of cars will fit in the parking lot so I had to come up with plan B. Simon came up with a good idea of having it at a park and having a family BBQ with volleyball and stuff. No worries Fred we will have beer. LOL I still would like to do the dyno thing, but we need a small group for that.

I called parks and rec. in Huntington Beach and found a few spots. The only problem is that none of them have room for all the cars. Anyone know of a beach park or just park in OC that we can have it at? I might also check into renting the local community center. James and I were talking about it and it would be nice to have a well planned meet in O.C.

Any thoughts?
