Default S-Squared BBQ - 4/3

Looks like S-Squared will be having one of their world famous BBQ's Next weekend at the shop in Sac!

Is Reno going to send a contingency? I know I'm there if I'm not still working weekends.

I'm probably up for it. Curiously, any news on their dyno? I might have my AccessPort by then.

The dyno should be up and running in a few days. It would have been up and running a few weeks ago, but everyone was too busy prepping their car for Buttonwillow.

You all should come, it'll be good fun

The dyno may make its maiden voyage this evening. Nate is welding the anchors on as we speak.

The 'Q doesn't start until 5 or 6 I believe, but the dyno will be running starting at 10. Just get there whenever you guys feel like making it.

Fedex ground didn't deliver my swaybars yesterday... I called, and begged them to deliver this AM, but no promisses. At least they have Sat. delivery...

I'll call Matt, or Scott if I'm going to make 10:00... I'll catch up to you there otherwise. Save me a parking spot and some grub.

I still need a ride home...

Headed out to swap wheels, and put in harnesses and load up all my parts.

Sweet!. Okay everyone, We're meeting at Super Kmart in Northwest Reno. Plan on 10:15 or so, we should hit the road no later than 10:45. Looks like we'll have about 10 vehicles. Eric (silver STi) called in sick today, so he's going now too...See you guys at 10;15,


Matt

Sweet, feels good to be home...I had a great time today, Mike, I'm sorry that had to happen, but at least you're okay.

All-in-all...Great day. The BBQ/Dyno day was top-notch, thanks Nate, Scott and SacSubies crew, we had a great time.

We will return the favor the 17th, when you all show up here...

Just cuz we're a Subaru club doesn't mean the Evo won't be missed!

I've been replaying the accident in my head for the last few days, and all I can think about was how I wish there was some way I could have helped as it was happening. I'm gonna have to start learning the force... anyone know Yoda's cell phone number?

Keep yer head up Mike, things will work out.
