[VA] NVCC Dyno Day on 18 March at Tony's Corvettes

[AlohaC5]

The Northern VA Corvette Club (NVCC: www.nvcorvetteclub.com) is holding a Dyno Day on 18 March at Tony's Corvettes in Gaithersburg, MD beginning at 8:00am.

NOTE: You will need an 02 bung for their shop to perform an A/F ratio check - they don't have a tail pipe sniffer. Keith is the POC at Tony's Corvettes.

The NVCC Dyno Day is now open to the public and we have 3 slots available. If you're interested in participating, please contact me with the following information, which I will pass along to Tonys Corvette:

Owner name, address, phone #
Year/Model (C4/5/6 and Z06 - if applicable)
VIN Number
Trans: auto or six speed
Rear axle ratio (If you're not sure and its stock - write "STOCK")

The cost is $80 for 2 (possibly 3) runs with A/F check.

Thanks, Mike

I had to organize the group by C4, C5, C6 and ZR1. Also, please check your oil level and have more than 1/2 tank of gas. Thanks!

Mike...it was nice to meet you! Congrats on the Horsepower Beast of yours!!

[AlohaC5]

Good meeting you too Mike. I think my vette surprised the '06 Z06 and two C6 Lingenfelter owners.

We had a great time! Excellent high-tech dyno facility supported by a knowledgeable, caring and professional staff. If you haven't visited Tony's Corvettes - I highly recommend you do so. This was my first experience there and I'll be coming back. It was great meeting a couple forum members at this event too.

The TC team is also providing each individual with their own CD-ROM, which contains their dyno results and software so they can examine the details of their setup, etc. (NOTE: Please ensure you provided Keith your mailing address). You get what you pay for and these guys don't cut any corners. They treat your vette as if they owned it themselves. Special thanks to Keith, Bob and Jose
