Yeah didnt spot ya,what time did you pass? I normally watch the road just to see what passes by. lol

5 for the go-karts(for the kids) 6 for the super karts(worth the extra buck) lol. If you have kids or have fam./friends with kids tell them to swing by they'll like the place.

I was passing by at around 4pm I think? I will be in that area again next wed. to touch-up my tune. So it's $6 for adults , that's a good price. For how long can you ride? and are these go-carts fast like our evos

Nice meeting you (briefly) at Cars and Coffee. The MDR car usually shows up at the Planet Zero meets, so if you want to run him, you can talk there. I think he takes his car to Baytown a lot.

What did your car put down at Secret Services? Everyone complained about the dyno, but they are only good for comparisons anyways. Mustangs usually read about 10-12% lower than Dynojets, so I put down exactly what I was expecting and was happy with that.

I went on the dyno at Jtran last week but I made almost the same numbers as I did at SSA.. I think I only dyno-ed like 10whp more than the mustang dyno at SSA
The Jtran dyno is also a Mustang, so that makes sense. I thought your torque seemed a little low at SS, but you were running low boost weren't you? Like 22 or 23 psi? Happy early birthday... who's bringing the cake (and ) to PZ? lol

I just signed up. I think its almost full for the AWD cars, so hurry if you want to get dynoed. I'll be using the dyno to help put the finishing touches on my timing map since I've made a few upgrades recently

Previous mods (when dynoed at SS): Turbo back exhaust w/ test pipe, AMS copy licp, Apexi Power intake, Hallman MBC, tuned for 93 octane @ 24 psi.

Mods in progress: 1000 cc injectors, Walbro 255, Samco MAF pipe, Synchronic BOV, 3.5 ETS intercooler, custom short route uicp, tuned for e85

Hoping to gain about 50 hp with the new mods. Already gained about 30 just by switching to E85 with a nasty boost leak and basically no ignition timing tuning.
