Yeah - I was hoping that Horsepower Ranch might be having something like that again.

^^^ Not really, as long as they are not openly advertising to sell products or services. A shop putting together a dyno day, that they don't personally make the money from is no big deal. BTW Where are you at? I have seen a yellow S197 with black stripes around here quite a bit lately.

That statement is untrue, as I know of one dyno that was putting on a non-profit CHARITY event and was banned.

Located in Oregon

The only thing I can think is that they might be able to pull this one out...

I know all about that. Maybe someone else should contact John and see what his schedule is.

So, if I owned a shop, which I don't. I wanted to get a bunch of people together, customers, and non-customers of my shop, I couldn't openly advertise that I had put a dyno day together? Even though I am in no way advertising my shop, or making any proceeds from it. Unless I am a sponsor of this site? If I remeber correctly this person wasn't banned for advertising, banned due to ''personal attacks '' on another member.

Who else wants to dyno? I'll call or e-mail John, get prices, dates available, and how many cars we can run through in a day.

See thats just it I don't know. There are alot of rules that don't get followed, then others seem to be strictly enforced when they are least expected. Clearly a case by case scenario... but I am lost as to why...

There will likely be a dyno day in the portland area specifically to raise money for the Heads-Up Northwest 2008 racing season, details will be posted on www.headsupnw.com

banning someone for posting a dyno day doesnt make sense. how many times on this site do you see someone ask "where can i get tuned?" then 50 people post there favorite shop? unless there is a local(northwest) paying sponsor also putting on a dyno day why would it matter? nobody got banned when we posted about the KAS dyno day right?
-So when, where and how much is the dyno day? these are too few and far between.

What day of the week would everyone want to do one? Do we want to shoot for something, say middle of next month?

Saturday's are the best for me. Weekdays are hit and miss. I suggest just picking a day and just let people work around it.

I just heard my turbo kit is finally in the mail, so I "might" be down by then, if everything goes well on the install, and I don't pop the motor right away.

Just heard back from John. He is all for it. $60 for 2-3 pulls with wideband. Can do up to 20 cars, he would prefer 10-15 cars.Sounds like he would like to have a minimum of 10. This still allows some extra time incase someone needs to tweak a little inbetween pulls.

Let's go for a saturday. Nov 10th or 17th? Both are Saturdays.
