also, i looked at the wrong airfare pricing. . . and im VERY sorry about that. i didnt think about the whole love airport thing and how dallas seems to have a monopoly on air travel. haha. anyways, the cheapest tickets ive been able to find are with orbitz for $272. . .

that equals out to be. . . $68/person. now, the dates i set on the ticket are for him to fly out here on dec 1st and leave on dec 5th. if those dates are okay. . . then everyone is welcome to send me payment via paypal. my paypal address is hotchilis4sale@hotmail.com

so, there we go. . . the tuning dates are dec 2nd for the local guys, dec 3rd for the out-of-towners, and the 4th will be a relaxation day i guess. . . or we can figure something else out. . .

im sorry this all has taken so long, but im trying to get all the details worked out before i start posting them, and i just wanted to take in consideration everyones situation. BUT. . . it seems i just need to put out the dates and let everyone come. . . so, there they are. . .

tuning dates are set as dec 3rd for local and dec 4th for others. make sense?

again. . . paypal the airfare payment to hotchilis4sale@hotmail.com and ill buy the tickets.

paul
Alright, airfare money sent.

First you say my tuning date is dec 3rd then you say its the 4rth?

Also would it be better for me to get up there the night before? If so what are the plans with that?

thanks for the payment. . . sorry about the typo there. the tuning days are the 2nd and 3rd. 2nd for local and 3rd for others. again. . . sorry about that. and yes. . . it may be better to come out the night before. . . as more things can be done the night before if time provides us that opportunity. . . or just get a headstart the next morning.

if you wanna come out here the night before. . . you are welcome to get a hotel room, or if you want. . . i have a couch with a hide-a-bed. i only have a spot for one person. . . and i have two dogs and a cat. . . the dogs may get on someones nerves. . . theyre crazy, but its a place to stay.

again, im sorry for the typo there. . . tuning dates are to be dec 2nd and dec 3rd. . . the ticket will be bought for the 1st and well start on the 2nd.

paul

also, i need to reiterate just how important it is to have prompt payment for this ticket. . . if we dont get this soon enough. . . this just isnt going to happen. . . so, please get the ticket money in.

Ah dont worry about it, its cool. I was just reading and wondering what was going on.

Alright, ill be happy to head out the day before and talk/meet with you guys. Ill be happy to get a room, about how much are they out that way?

TurboNutTT,I dont know how long of a drive it will be for you but, if your gonna come out the night before then did you want to share a room or you just gonna come out the day of?

So are you sure theres plenty of room up there cop free for tuning? I got family up in middle tn and I know that tn cops are alot worse than ga cops are.

riley, the places that i know of. . yeah, were good. . . its where i TRY to tune. cops out here are pretty bad sometimes, but you just have to be smart about where you go.

about the rooms. . . im gonna call around. there are a few hotels out here, but i never stay there. also, im gonna see if i can get something squared away on post. . . id have to sneak you in, but you cant beat 15 bucks a night!!!! ill see what i can do.

youll have to figure it out for yourself. . . ive done enough work here. . .


hahaaha, im playing.

well, i didnt wanna post anymore until i actually was able to buy the tickets. . . they were a little more than expected. . . cause i had to wait until today. . . but anyways, heres his itenerary:

2005NOV30

DEPARTS: 1005
ARRIVES: 1438

2005DEC06

DEPARTS: 1041
ARRIVES: 1721

those are his flight times. . . hes coming. . . the rest is up to us!!!!

meeting will be at david garfinkles house. . . since, thats where brian will be staying. since, brian is going to be here for an extended amount of days. . . hell have enough time to help people out with their cars if there are some things needing to be done. . . david garfinkle has plenty shop space and tools to do so. if you need things done by brian, contact him and schedule the day you want it all done. youd obviously be hard pressed to get out here earlier to get this stuff done. if you want to come out on an earlier date. . . then do so. i dont mind putting ONE person up in my apartment as that is about all my wife would allow me. . . cant smoke though. . . got a newborn. sorry.

as soon as brian is here. . . well start tuning. . . once hes settled of course. david and i will start on all of that once hes ready. . . that means david and myself will be able to get out tuning done on the 1st, 2nd, and even the 3rd. . . others. . . hell, if you wanna come out and stick around, just do so. theres no telling when well be done. i would assume that if you are an "out-of-towner" that you might wanna wait until about the 3rd or 4th. . . that way david and i can have all of our things out of the way and leave him to you guys.

i have guard drill on the 3rd and 4th of december. . . so, ill kinda be out of the loop. people can call me if they need things, but i wont be able to drop trout and run. . . just remember that.

the central location for the tuning is going to be at david garfinkles house. so, meet there. . .

1967 ransom drive
murfreesboro, tn 37130

if you need to contact me. . . go ahead and call at (615)525-6555

happy tuning!!!

Indeed Paul, the rate you quoted me that those dyno guys wanted was way too high IMO when I think I can pull everything off I need to do on the street, provided we aren't flying at 120+mph. I'll need a couple of hours each, mininum, with each car. I would also prefer to get some specs and see a couple of pictures of each one prior incase there's some things that may need to be changed around.

Just received itinerary today... Looks like the trip will be 6 days long so there will be plenty of time for everyone. If anyone needs a hand with anything on their car while I am there, PM me and we'll work something out cheap.

big day. . . big day. . . big day??? oh, are you talking about davids car actually, finally getting tuned? hahaha, i think the weekend is a good day to head out. . . firday, saturday, sunday. . any one of those days. im gonna take a shot at this first. . . since i have drill that weekend. so, coming out on friday or saturday would more than likely be the end of the "locals" session and the beginning of the others. then wed be able to go for a ride in davids car.

[QUOTE=BDC]I can. My typical turn-around time is two weeks.


Ma, I am just sooo busy.... I just can not imagine getting it done in time.. Figure if I get it pulled and shipped this week, then you have it for 2 weeks, 3 days shipping back to me. Puts it at my house Dec. 3-5th.... I should have planned ahead... But I just opened another store in TN (Hockey Store) and am also building a house (doing most myself) so you can see I have no time..... But if there is a way to have a motor here by the end of Nov. (18 days away) I would get it in and put on some break in miles to be ready!!!

oh mike!!!! thats cool man!!! didnt know you had a shop up here. . . expanding are we? hahahaha. we are very close. . . franklin is about 30-45 minutes away from murfreesboro. . . if you take 840 its very quick. dude, come by whenever you want!!!

you got in there in good time didnt you? the nissan headquarters just stated that theyre moving to williamson county. that should bring A LOT of money that way. . . and more people!!! you should see a good amount of traffic due to that. . . though you probably are already.

just let us know when youre out this way (myself or david) and we can get together.

hows the 600rwhp saga going?
