Have to agree 100% with you, John. It was a very good event with good food and great company. Enjoyed meeting you and maybe I'll see you at some of the upcoming events. Thanks to Steve for arranging this and to Ed and his crew for having us. Ed, I didn't know my car was going to be that loud on the dyno. Surprised the devil out of me.

I want to Thank You guys very much for the hospitality and I enjoyed meeting you guys (and gals). I also want to thank Scott very much (in advance) for the BIG hit my bank account is about to endure for headers, exhaust and that sweet looking MCM hood. I would also like to re-dyno now that I have officially put a sticker on my new car (thought it would stay stickerless)........this should give me at least 1hp so I can beat the other slower silver C6 Z06.

Good job on the sticker placement! Yes,you must definitely re-dyno now!

Very nice to meet you and 'recruit' you! Just keep an eye out in the section for any future Ratpack events and chime in.

And yeah, any of us will gladly help you spend your money by recommending mods!!

Thanks again fellas............BTW: not sure if any of you guys (or gals) are interested, but I am signed up for the new Shenandoah circuit HPDE that is planned for Sept. 9th and 10th. I've attended this event @ VIR and it was a blast. Mazda Drivers is sponsoring and is very laid back and enjoyable. PM me if you want any more info.

Ya know, one of these days I am actually going to get to one of these and it is going to scare the living hell outta me because that might mean the end of the world or the planets are aligned funny or something.
