re: 5th Annual Spring 2012 Tail of the Dragon GTG - April 6, 7, 8

Do I need to bring anything for anyone? Keep in mind I am driving the SRT6, so small items okay (don't ask for an engine).

Any spare parts?

Special requests?

I am teaching a nuke plant systems course that week, and will not hit the road till probably 12 noon on Friday, so will be late Friday night before we get there.

Trying to keep up with orders and get my car finished.

New Michelin Pilot Sport AS mounted
Replaced;Injectors, APPS (pedal), throttle body, map sensor, crank sensor (80k mile, had a strange lope on start and raw fuel smell.)

Cleaned out oil sludge in intercooler and manifolds, drilled and tapped for water/meth injection

Need a good wash and wax, already clay barred.

Doing fine here. There was a nasty fire to the west in the mountains and out on the plains about 100 miles east. I'd be happy with some rain (I'd even take some snow).

It was a pleasure being out there and talking car with yall last year and we look forward to seeing yall out there in less than 2 weeks again.

Here is our thread for that weekend (I am WildBill over there, a moderator on gencoupe.com):

Official 2012 Gensport Spring Run of The Dragon Thread - Genesis Forum: GenCoupe Hyundai Genesis Forums

Hey Wild Bill! You may want to pass on to your folks that, since the event is includes Easter Sunday, that we are providing a short Sunday 9:00 a.m. worship service in the Fontana church house located on the premises near the ball field. No dress code, just good fellowship!
