Hopefully when it's WARM out. Actually, the sooner the better. This time I'm not leaving early!!!!

 

[Jamie231]

Another one at LP's when its nice out??? (LP shop rocks)

 

[Dream]

We usually have a mod day at LP's during the summer...it was in June last year, but I'm sure that if some one asks him nicely, he will allow another one sooner than that. hehe

 

[LPSPEED2]

what about having a monthly, or bi-monthly mod days? There is always something to do. Im not talking about a party/LP's mod day (which kicks all kinds of ass) but a bit more serious modding days. Then we can also have like seperate mod/ party days.

 

[BumpinGTP]

i will have one right before IDD for last minute stuff that needs to get done, then one right before Pontiac Nationals and GPG

 

[LP 3800]

I am going to have to wait until my car is running again. My dad wants me to get all my shit off the floor( my engine) and all the parts out of my engine. So it will be a couple months. But that will still be before racing season. So after that I am game for whenever. We could have one every month at the shop when it is outdoors. then it does not matter to him.

 

[DaytonaPaceCar]

I am contemplating hosting one here at the shop. We can fit probably 6 or so cars inside at a time. I have gotten MANY MANY PM's in reference to injector cleaning/balancing. I would like to have a mini-mod day / injector cleaning day. It would not be a whole day and night thing but I think it will give everyone a chance to get some stuff done! Any thoughts?????

 

[2KREDGHOST]

Hey that's a great idea I'll go.

 

[BumpinGTP]

if you plan it they will come

 

[LP 3800]

I will definitely be there. I would love to check out your shop. I am sure I can find something there that I will need

 

[imported_GraFFix]

I like that Idea Justin...I need some injectors cleaned and fixed up

And like Bumpin said...If you plan it they will come.

 

[Dreamcat78]

that would be a sweet idea justin..maybe i can do my knock gauge then too !

I have an injecter cleaner somewhere. Canister type that uses shop air.

 

[DaytonaPaceCar]

This is how we clean injectors...

ASNU Injector Flow Bench

Not the canister / shop air type.. Ultrasonically backflush injectors while pulseing them open and closed at various pulsewidths.

I wouldn't mind hosting one this year either. I can fit 2 cars in the garage, 6 in the driveway. And there is street parking still. There are several of us in the Naperville/Bolingbrook/Woddridge area. Prolly can do some sort of mini-mod day. I think what we should do is schedule some mod days that rotate to different areas around Chicagoland, and have a sponsor/big party mod day every other month, or every 3 months. Maybe we should start setting dates on the calendar.

 

[LP 3800]

I agree that we should have everyone that is willing to have one speak up on a different forum. then we can make a calendar for the next 6 months or so with all the chosen dates. I think this will be a nice touch to be so coordinated. Plus everyone will have plenty of notice on when one will be in their neighborhood. Or when the bash of the century is coming up

 

[BumpinGTP]

well you guys know my house is open anytime you want a meeting, mod day, or and all out party.

 

[Dreamcat78]

i wanna party fooker..what about your bday...lol

 

[imported_Ron Vogel]

One more point I wanted to touch on - Services available. On the bigger mod days you can always expect to get most everything done, but the smaller ones might just be for general mods due to who's hosting it has to offer for tools/facilities. (run on sentence) Lets come up with a checklist of things that can be done, so everyone will have realistic expectations of getting their work done (ie: remember intercooler install guy?). I can offer a lot of fabrication services, even have a welder availible. So the mod day can be posted, and those looking at the calendar can also know it is possible that what they want done, can get done. I know, I know, I'm a little anal, but I was once a production coordinator, and it's hard to shrug off the experience.

 

[GTPj]

i don't know about a mod day..more like a mod/party...but the park district that is by my house has a picnic area with a huge parking lot that can hold like 40+cars...there is a picnic area with horsehoes, grills, baseball diamonds, b-ball court and a park for the little ones...mods can be done in the parking lot(no shade )...let me know...don't know if you have to pay for the picnic area...but the b-ball diamonds u can use, and the b-ball courts 2....?? just a "iderr"(paul sr..american choper :lol: )..

 

[Kyle]

Well ron if you have one I'll definetly come wheither I have mods to do or not. I mean it would only be an 8 minute drive. I assume others around here that had things they needed to do would come to. When you're done with that fwi/cai hybrid thing ur making i want to come check it out btw.

Good idea Ron... anywhere around the naperville area is close enough for me.. Where do you live BTW?

 

[CoolGTX]

ill host one, asap, after i get myair compr wired and plumbed..anyone know 220?(pm me)

 

[imported_Ron Vogel]

Ryan, I moved from Naperville, now I'm by Weber and Boughton in Bolinbrook.

J/O, I need to do the same, if you don't have any luck finding someone a friend of mine from HS has been a union electrition for 15 years, I'm sure he can do it. I just have to put in more outlets in my garage. My air compressor and welder run off 120, but they do need a bigger breaker than the standard 15 amp.
