Cool...the tune with Hackish went well, long, but well. Michael and I spent an entire day, and into the late evening (unto 0230) running laps on the highway, fine tuning the wagon. Had a concerning loss of boost during the hot, humid mid-day, but concluded the weather was the culprit for boost returned into the cooler evening. No dyno time was rented so whp is still tbd.
Had a really comfortable meet/lunch with George (2006_RA), and Hackish in Ottawa prior to the tune session. Again, it was a pleasure to have had a chance to meet you George...
Another highlight of the time was meeting Hackish's dog, a pure bread American Bulldog, who brought back my childhood memories of having a "man's best friend."
On the way west, out of Ottawa, I stopped by and finally met Garrett (Cranswick) near Madoc, Canada who impressed me with, not only his ride, but his beautiful family that he had already established at such a young age. God bless you and yours Garrett. Hey Garrett, remember the story you told me about being stopped and questioned at the border? Well, they did the same to me, having me pull over to the side, stop my car with my emergency lights on, leave my cell phone and keys in the car, while I went inside and got questioned and my vehicle searched. About a half hour later they released me without further incident. Nice guys...
Sorry I didn't get to meet you nor take you up on your offer to sleep in your "man cave" Brent. You can blame Mike for kidnapping me for so long...
