Its time for the second annual February Fling GTG at the Morris Costumes distribution warehouse in Charlotte, NC. Location is the same as last year. This is NOT any of the locations on Monroe Rd, it is located in the University area. There will not be an autocross for liability reasons, but this year it should be much bigger. We had to wait on the decided date because of Morris's expansion project onto the warehouse. Proceeds this year will go to the American Breast Cancer Society. Sean's mother was diagnosed about a month after the event last year, this is a tribute to her.
We would like to get another Dyno this year, possibly an AWD dyno for all of the audi folks, we need a list of people that WILL dyno, to get a minimum amount, (so the mobile dyno will even attend)

We are planning to have window tinting on site, just like we did last year (hopefully the same people)
And we will probably have a dent wizard representative on site, to make your car ding-free.

We will have food on site this year.

This was a cool event last year, and was/is for a good cause.

Count me in.

sounds like it could be fun. how much is it for a couple dyno runs and for everything else?

[g60wcorrado]

we havent gotten a Dyno company to confirm yet; we're just trying to gather interest for them, because they want a DEFINATE confirmed group of people to be locked in, for them to come out; it normally runs $50 or $60 for 3 runs

[zmaerd]

I'm going to do my best to attend again!
We had a great time last year.

i hope theres more of a BMW crowd this year, its crossposted on alot of other sites; we're trying to get a dyno out... one of the companies just sold their dyno; we might even have a "modification area" where people can bring their tools and work on their cars at the show, who knows, some spectators might lend a hand and twist a wrench or two.

What sites have you posted it on? If you're after a larger BMW crowd this year, I'd also post this on E46Fanatics, M3Forums, Bimmerforums, and possibly Roadfly. I posted it on CPRacing's forum for ya.

[e30Bokes]

my little brother and i may show up. normally i dont do this show crap, but lately ive been trying to get out of the house more and not sit around.

i'd be interested in getting my car on the dyno.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...... maybe.



ps- i'd only be going to this because i need to get out and not stay around the house so much, and to get my little brother out and into bmw's some more. he's kinda new to all this crap.

Don't lie Jordan, BT has suppressed your car show desires. It's ok, really.
