Mitsu/DSM Mountain Meet, May 29-31

This is the 1st Annual North Carolina Mountain Meet May 29-31 here in Asheville, NC.

Saturday May 30, 2009 - Dyno Day @ Appalachian Performance

8:00 - Breakfast @ Denny's or Huddle House
10:00 - Dyno Time
4:00 - Car Detailing/Wash
5:30 - Blue Ridge Parkway Photoshoot
7:00 - Dinner @ Asiana Grand Buffett
9:00 - Until - Cruise in @ Patton Avenue

Sunday May 31, 2009 - DSM's @ The Tail of The Dragon

8:00 - Breakfast @ IHOP
9:30 - Head to the Dragon and make some passes
1:30 - Lunch at the local restraunt
2:30 - 5:00 - Indulge on the Dragon some more, then take some pics @ Fontana Dam
5:00 - Go Home

The reason we choose this weekend was because we thought this was far enough in advance for planning, plus, this gives us an opportunity to see some Nissan Skylines @ the Dragon. The Skyline camp is also holding a meet there this weekend and from the looks of it, there should be quite a few.

As far as the Dyno Day is concerned. We have not yet confirmed anything with Appalachian Performance, but these guys welcome Dyno Days and should have no problem with it. They are equipped with an AWD Mustang Dyno and John(The Owner) is a great tuner, if you wish to seek his services. One of the guys who works there is also a DSM guy, so I'm sure he would love to have us as well.

If you are interested or have any questions, please PM us or post in this thread. Adam and I have talked about opening up our homes to those who may need lodging. We know money can be tight, and if we can help you out, just let us know.

We think this could be a great event for years to come! Let us know what you think!

I spoke with Ian at Appalachian Performance today about the Dyno day.

Here is the deal.
-They need to know at least 1 month advance to plan for the event.
-It will cost $600 for 8 hours.

Now, let's talk about the number of vehicles and options
-He said he would like it to be 16 cars, but from the way he was talking, if we had one or two more, it would be ok.
-16 vehicles @ $600 = $37.50.
-Either 3 straight pulls or 2 Drag pulls w/ no tuning. You choose!

If less people sign up, let's say 8.
-The rate per car will go up to $75 per person.
-There will be tuning allowed, but we will have to distribute the time evenly across the board. Example, 8 people with 8 hours of available time equals 1 hour of Dyno time per person.


Ian said it was cool if I brought the grill down and cooked up some burgers and dogs. Add some chips and drinks in and we can eat pretty affordable.

How does all this sound to you guys?

Also, remember to let us know if your going to strap down on the dyno.

Just want to let everyone know this event is officially on the Tail of the Dragon calander.

I'm down for that. I'm a new Evo owner and I was looking for a cool meet up. Whats better than the Tail? My Evo is pretty much stock, so I don't know how much good a dyno would do, but if you find that you have room I think it would be fun. So put me down.

dynoing a stock car isn't a bad thing. you'll have a better idea of what your putting down than most of us that use butt dyno's.

Well, after some searching and talking we've decided on a place to lay your head for the nights you are here. Even though they do not offer any "group rates" with out a full deposit and exact number of rooms, we decided to go with the Super 8 in Black Mountain, NC. This is one of 2 hotels in Black Mountain that can accomodate our large group and the Super 8 is the cheapest by about $30 a night.

http://www.super8.com/Super8/control...opertyId=02770

Price will be $70 a night from what the lady told me. However, they do honor AAA and most other discount cards.

Since they will not allow us to do a group reservation with out a full deposit up front, everyone needs to go ahead and reserve there rooms ASAP.

If there is anyone out there that may not be able to afford this, please PM me and we'll see if we can work something out.


It's a little less than a month away. Get ready!
