***Chicago MB Pre-Season Dyno Day 2K9***
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Saturday February 21st, 2009 - 1st Participant Straps Down at 8am Sharp!!!!
A few members have asked me about maybe setting up a pre-season dyno day in order to prepare for this season. It will give everyone a chance to see if their cars are running right and how they stack up against each other. I have spoken to Al @ CPT and he has graciously offered his Dyno to us at a discounted rate. This will be a laid back event - give the local crew a place to shoot the breeze, and see who's going to be making some noise this season.
As many have probably heard/read - I really like the Dyno Dynamics machine used at CPT and there is no one in Chicago that I know of who has done as many MBs as they have. For those of you not familiar with CPT, they are an Audi/VW/Porsche/MB shop located in Melrose Park, IL. They are an authorized Kleemann, VRP, and RENNTech dealer as well.

Info on their dyno:

The pricing will be:
3 pulls with printouts will be available for $75. Wideband carries an additional $25 charge (NOT per pull, total).
We are limited to 10 spots. This is a first come, first serve offering, so please email me if you would like to commit. I expect to see JRCart on here ASAP, since there have not been any black series dyno there yet. I also think Marko will be making an appearance and we may have Victor from VRP join us if his schedule allows. The list will be updated accordingly:

2. ENDSMTG

Count me in if it doesn't snow. Is the driveway to CPT sloped? I'll feel pretty silly if I have to get a semi with a liftgate to pick it up and take it into the parking lot and back out.

nick - there is a slight incline to the shop but the main entrance is on a side street. I'm not quite sure what you mean by your post, but they seem to get their race cars in and out of the shop no problem...

Marcus, I would love to attend, however I am going to be out in California that weekend running the Black Series at Willow and doing some shifter kart racing and possibly some drag racing as well.
