Morning all, just had a call from Simon who owns the dyno. All doubly confirmed for 9am this Saturday. He did ask how many takers & I guessed 6, inc me. The run costs $90 with print-out & tuning tips. I've been advised this is cheap (no previous dyno experience, so can't really say).
Can everyone let me know who is up for a run?
Pete you said you were up, any other takers?

Troy, both Alf and I are doing the dyno run. The tuning tips will be handy. It will be interesting to see how good or bad my back-yard tuning is.

Hi Sparky

not sure yet (Troy hasn't mentioned the earliest we can bomb in !) probably early Friday arvo to arrive around 5pm.

I want to try and miss some of the traffic so may head down through Picton, Mittagong and across the Roo valley.

I'll have to leave Mid Sunday Morning to get back for some other stuff tho.

Hi Jools

That a shame, earliest I can leave is Saturday morning and I have to be back Saturday evening.
I was going through Robertson and then Roo Valley past Cambewarra.
I'll see you there

Just planning how I sneak off work early...........

planning the route, checking the weather. I think we might be a bit unlucky - not to hot and but hopefully the rain stays away, but I may get a chance to check out the Michellins wet weather performance :yes:.
