We need to put a jax caravan together for this one weekend...
My only 'requirement' is to get JChalua and Chris to go...
I missed JChalua's runs this weekend...I've been dying to see his car...
RE: MGW....I felt this shifter in another car this weekend and it was AWESOME...so...if we can get it on a good weekend...I'M IN! Are they going to install for 'free' or discounted? The reason I ask is that on of the vengeance techs mentioned that for a DIY'r...this install could be a serious pain...so, a 8 hour round trip drive is less than a 16 hour DIY install...and you don't have busted knuckles. :P
Another thought I wanted to put out to the local guys. I had Vengeance do the work on my car because they were a known entity for me...they did all the work on my Dad's C5 Vette and his car is perfect and he is extremely picky (and his car will SMOKE mine). Vengeance will occasionally do 'road trips'...a group of 4th Gen owners has them out to Hawaii annually for example. I've talked with Ron and Mike, and they're willing to make the trip to Jacksonville if we get enough people together that need their services. For me, this is selfish...as I want to have several tunes (winter tune,summer(heat) tune, etc)..but most importantly I want my car tuned in Jacksonville at sea level so it's exactly right for where I drive it. I also would like to have them do installs of 'future mods', including gears, suspension, etc (we would have to find a shop for them to 'borrow' for this type of work). Any one else interested in 'future work' or do you guys have a local resource that you trust? For reference, Mike Carnahan (Vengeance owner/tuner) is a former lead tech from GMMG...his reputation is solid)
