Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches Capitol CEG July 13th NJ Dyno Day 3 Invite

RACEREDI is crap. I went to school with some of the guys that work there, I wouldn't trust them to change my oil, let alone install a blower. Most of their shop is ricearoni anyways.

CCMP is located off Route 355, behind FSK Lincoln/Mercury and the Saturn dealership. Take 70 east to the exit for 355 and 85. Make a right at the stoplight and bare left (in front of the FSK L/M dealer) to go on 355. Once you're past the FSK dealer, there's a road on the left before the Saturn dealership. That takes you back in an industrial park. Make a right and CCMP is at the end of the first building. It should be 5915 Urbana Pike. Their Dyno/shop is in back, you can access it from the show room.

Do you think we could maybe stay on my topic here. I am offering a service to CEG folks to dyno their cars at a low price. I am not making money, I do this because I know some people and can help out. I love to organize ford car/truck events.

I think it is sad though, when I do this with Mustangs, Lightnings and even the Focus crowd, I can get like 20 cars pretty easily. So far though I have posted about the dyno day in every forum on the east coast and I have gotten 4 responses. My pal told me to check out this forum b/c he said that the contour owners over here were performance minded. Other than the 4 guys I have talked to so far its starting to seem a little "dry" over here.

Please don't take it the wrong way! It's just that a lot of things have happened in CAP CEG recently!

(Sorry if I missed anyone!)
Keep in mind it would take 2 1/2 hours + for many of us to drive out there.

No need to be angered by non response. If nobody wants to drive to NJ for a measly dyno day then so be it. Keep your anger to yourself and enjoy the people who really want to go all the way to NJ and participate.

Part of what I think is so funny is that Mustang, Lightning, T-bird, crown vic and focus owners do not feel a 2 or 3 hour drive sucks to attend a dyno day. I just thought that contour folks were as performance minded as the rest of us fordnatics.

This is rediculous. People have conflicting schedules, its a fact of life. Just because lots of people can't make it doesn't mean no one was interested. We all have lives, and regardless of how much we may like our cars, its not at the height of our list of priorities to the point where we'll drop everything to go to Jersey.

Look, I had a good time when I went up last, and enjoyed meeting everyone. But it was not a cheap venture. I spent 20 dollars in tolls alone, plus the full tank of gas I burned, food costs, and cost of the dyno. Bringing an attitude to the boards certainly won't help convince anyone to go. And if I am going to have to listen to this crap about Contour folk at the dyno day, then I won't bother joining you guys.

Yeah, I used to drive over 2 hours to come down to the CAP-CEG meets when I had my SVT. And I'd actually come to the dyno day since it's local to me, except I work nights and sleep during the day. And I've got a bachelor party to go to that night, so I need my sleep.

Werd. I was thinking of going up just to hang out, but I don't think so any more.

It's not about bringing an attitude, how many registered CEGer's are on the east coast? Alot I am guessing, they all have conflicting schedules, I don't think so. It's funny to me because at the last SVT Lightning dyno day we had, there wasn't enough time in the whole day to do all the Lightnings that showed up and most were from PA and MD. The next time you whine and moan about gas money and tolls :rolleyes: , just think about all the lightning and mustang owners out there who can make the trip.

I am not going to argue with you all anymore. Although, Some of you guys must be hardcore car folks b/c I have a hand full of CEGers attending the dyno day.

Let's see, you obviously skipped my post. I listed just about every CAP (DC/Maryland) Contour owner. Read it.

Who's available? No one. Drop the attitude.

We responded nicely yet you continue to bash us. Grow up.
