Indeed he is.
10am-3pm or so.
If a few of you wanted to stop by and introduce yourselves, it would be cool.
I organize the event, and you could come and check it out if you like.
My car made 205whp on it last sunday, Cody's made 217whp+ I think with stage 2.
I will be breaking in my nissan frontier because my car is done...

Matthew uses a mustang dyno, eddy current loaded dyno to mimic street load.
Excellent guy, great shop with hoist instead of crappy in-floor.
If you get 6 guys+, the rate will be 60-65/car. Matthew will do at least 2 pulls, warms-up the car properly, then runs it. He tries to get a handle on the variables and get you 2 passes within 1 hp.

My name is Chris if anybody stops by....

I'll ask Matthew what his schedule looks like saturday.
You have 3 already, hopefully 6 won't be a problem...
Anyone going to pop by and say Hi?

If I can get in early enough, I'm in! I usually have to work about 11:00 or 12:00 in the morning, so the earlier the better for me.

Matthew drives the fwd cars himself. Safer so a rookie doesn't hit the brakes or turn the wheel in panic and create a train wreck...
He will dyno your car in 3rd though, yes.

Matthew is all booked until labour day for saturdays,etc.
He suggested doing a few groups of three on a week night plan kind of thing.
Anyways, you guys should pick a guy to represent your club that is here in town to go talk
to Matthew on your behalf. He is open to do it, just not on week-ends during the summer.
