no date set yet, but we are trying to guage some interest. Club Members get first shot at the spots, but after that its a free-for-all.

who's interested... looks like $50 for 3 pulls.

I know that Jeff will be throwing the S38B36 on the rack (I want to see Dr. Gomon's 740iL run personally), Sheridan should be good with the E36/5 (right??), Jim? Justin? Armen (the RX-7 would be interesting), I'm going to try to throw-down with the E28...

lets get the word out to the euro-philes.

and I'm hoping we'll get my brother's mustang strapped down too! heehee!

For $50 I could turbocharge it! :D

Yeah, actually, that is a little tempting... would there be a little time between runs to fiddle (jets and fuel pressure) ? Or is this strictly a pull?

you should have time to do some light tuning.. there will be longer sessions in the afternoon designed for tuning that MIGHT run $75 instead of $50, but that's not been determined as of yet.

your best bet is likely going to be reserving a later spot when you can go ahead and take the time to do all the fiddling you need to.

I don't know when yet... likely sometime in May, before it gets too hot.

I'll keep you all posted.

MVC members are obviously going to get first hack, but I don't see it being a problem at all.

one thing to remember is that our events run a little leaner on the money-side. MVC events are structured to pay for themself, and nothing else, we don't make money off of our members. Iowa Chapter generally will not hold an event if it does not believe it can profit off of it, substantially.

what that means is that if we can't fill at least 12 spots, the event may be canceled.
