Sounds like a good plan.

He is willing to work with us, so here is what he proposed...
We can do some pulls on Friday and some on Sunday. Or all on Friday or all on Sunday. It is up to us. Whatever we want to do.
He also gave me a web address that we could check out... Trackmasters. You can go to the Dyno sectoin and check out the rates. Hey! If we get more than 10 people, we can get a bigger discount. I don't think that will happen, but oh well. You can also check out the Dyno Charts page to see graphs of runs by other people. I suppose ours will be listed as well.
Hector, as for tuning, you have do whatever you want at $65 - minus doing a engine swap.  You are more than welcome to do your own tunning, if you want. Also, since you are wanting to tune, Arthur is the one that mentioned that you might want to tune yours Friday before going to the track that night. Just an idea.
Let me know what you guys want to do and I will call him back tomorrow.
Tuning on Friday sounds good.

Yeah I figured it would take place Friday afternoon, because I had no idea what time everyone is thinking about making it in. I know that I am going to either take off work that day or at the very least have a lite day. That way we can get there earlier than last time.

So far the list is like this...
Friday....
LoCo tuning @ $65 hr
Me 2 pulls w|A/F $50 (if my car is not falling on it face still!!)
Sunday....
If I can get somebody to tune & adjust my A/F, I'll do some pulls.
I'm looking to run lean under 3000 rpm, then be approaching full rich by 4500. That way, I'll get economy on the highway & power when I demand it.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.
