Timeline for the Meet
Ok guys it looks like we have some more details on the Dallas Meet. The meet will begin at 9 AM and end at 2-3 PM. Powerhouse Racing will provide refreshments throughout the day. Obviously it gets very hot in Dallas, so that is why the end of the meet will be a take it as it goes thing.
A couple of questions.
1. Where are most of you coming from so I can post directions and maps to Powerhouse Racing.
2. Do any of you guys have interest in dynoing your car?
Please ask questions if you want, and also if you could plan on definitely attending just post it up baby. I will give more info as it becomes available.

Meet sheets
Turbo - Looks like I'll make it so I'll be coming from Dallas (Plano) so any kind of map showing where in FW the site is located will work for me.
Also, here is something that we used at the last Dallas meet - I'll volunteer to make these if attendees are interested. I would need for them to pm me with the appropriate information. The sheets were put into a plastic sheet protector with strip magnets (on the inside of the plastic, so it didn't scratch the car) and we stuck them on any metal part (top of radiator) showing with the hood raised. It's intended to show the car's mods. Here is a sample of tinygs's sheet. Let me know if you'd like to do this.

Ok, we have more details now. I know everyone will be interested in dyno'ing their car, so Powerhouse Racing has agreed to charge only $20 for 2 pulls on the dyno! They normally charge $90 for 3 pulls, so this is a great deal.
Snacks and drinks will be provided, in addition to lunch for all those showing up at the meet. That is refreshing!
Also, I am working on trying to get Lowrider magazine to make an appearance at the show! So, get those cars looking pretty!

Sounds like a winner! Hey. How come you didn't make it to Hot Import Nights Saturday here in Dallas? And by the way, there was this crazy Blue (Pepsi sponsored) IS in the show! :eek:
And how many people do we have so far planning to attend?

Turbo,
Is the dyno only for Lexus'? I have a miata that I just dropped a turbo in running at 6psi and i'm curious what numbers its pulling. I may be running 10psi by then as well.
If so, i'll be there..
Marcus,
hey whats up? John told me you were at HIN, i tried to go but couldnt justify paying $27.50 for tickets. Heard you're getting a new 350Z. You gotta let me check that out when you get it

HIN was off the hook! And yes, I am counting the days for delivery of the Z! I'm sure they'll dyno your car if you like. Like Turbo said "$20 for 2 pulls."

Will Try
Trying to keep my schedule open so that I can make it. I'll be the one with my 10 year old son. He is definitley a bigger car nut than I was at his age. Just need the address for the meet. I hope you GS4 guys will let me hear your exhausts and intakes in action.

For those of you who will be staying at a hotel, I was able to secure a group rate at:
SUPER 8 MOTEL - North Fort Worth
5225 N. Beach Street
Fort Worth, TX, 76137, US
817-222-0892 Fax: 817-222-1910
Toll Free Reservations 1-800-800-8000
They offered $55 plus tax for a double bed room and $45 plus tax for a single bed room. That seems like a pretty reasonable deal. $27.50 plus tax if we go two deep per room. Let me know if you guys are going to go this route. If you decide to make reservations just let them know you are with the group attending the Lexus Meet on August 17.
