Boston Area / Southern NH Dyno Day Survey

Here's a thought? Are there enough Greater Boston (and Southern NH) area pelican heads to make up a dyno day? Preferably some time before the end of October to avoid the nasty season for those of us keeping our long hood cars out of the snow and salt.

Does anyone know of any shops with Dynos in the area? Any recommendations?

I used Martel Racing in Concord NH for the dyno day I organized a couple of years ago. Martels's # is 603 622-9747

I don't know as the car needs the dyno yet but, I would come down to see what's going on.

What about working with local tech guys from NRC PC?

Sorry guys, I meant the local porsche club. North country region porsche club. You could probably pull a few more visitors for the day.

I'll come and bring my little ole 2.7. So long as it isn't after the last week of September. The nuke is being shut down and I'll be working 6-7 days of 12 hour shifts for a couple of weeks.

Considering the time it takes to set up and dyno a car, we might want to get a firm list together, since there may be more people saying "me" than there is time...

When we did a dyno day in our Boston Audi Group club, we had almost twice the number of people who wanted to dyno their car as there was time to dyno them. Part of that was the tools...er...employees working at the shop, but there were people who left pissed because they couldn't go at all.
