All right that was not fair... We understand that the other guys have their own way of doing business and we should not judge. We would be more than happy to host your club day if you would let us. We will make every effort to make this event fun and educational.

I forgot to mention, if any of you want to make a quick and minor tune during your 3 pulls, that would be fine. Jeff Price could even help you since he knows these cars damn well..

Ok, here's the rundown on Swanson Performance: Swanson's normal fee is $ 125 for a single car, 3 pulls, 10 cars minimum: $65 per car. Community parking lot will hold 15 or so cars, Saturdays only, no Sunday option, start about 9:00 AM. BYOF=Bring your own food. Sounded pretty strictly business.
I offered to supply them with the address of the thread so they could come on the site and defend their cause and they did not sound interested.

Took my 02 Lightining in for for a Dyno session to Swanson's did several pulls & had they had problems creating a chip.My intial comment was That I felt the truck ran real well with some mods I did & was skeptical if it could run any better. Came in with 375 RWHP & left with 385 RWHP for the sum of $700.00 for a chip & no intial estimate. Anyone care to bitch about my prices & how I treat customers? You be the judge!

Maybe you should sell them a turbo Buick so they will have to support you in return. At the rate that you charge and the rate that they charge it might take you somewhat longer to get your money back from them. Well, maybe 2 turbo Buicks? Maybe they were punishning you for owning a furd.

Harv's Performance Center, 12221 Riviera Rd., Whittier, Ca., 90606,
(562) 907-7834.I was unable to get a hold of Gilbert so Marvin is contact here. They do not have a web site. I also advised them that this would be posted on TB.com & they were welcome to read or join & participate in the on-going discussion. They said that they were familiar with the site and did not say whether they would post of not. Below are customary & special prices: Customer walk in off the street: $150 per hour with tuning, business: $100 for a single car, 5 or more cars: $75 per car, 10 cars or more: $60 per car, no tuning allowable, Will open Sundays if necessary, can't/won't open till 10 as they are in a resedential district, parking lot on Sat or Sun will hold about 30 cars.
 
Ok, there's our choices, unless someone has a very late last minute entry. I can't find the poll icon, so no poll I guess. Here's how we'll do it.
Post on this thread where you want to go between the 4 places, The Dyno Store in Chatsworth, Swanson Performance in Torrance, Harv's Performance in Whittier, or R & D Dyno in Gardena. I will post your choice on the original post no 1 where all of the sign up names are. If you change your mind, post here and I will change your choice. After we pick a place, we will opt out a day/date. I will not accept 3rd party choices such as, Hey, I have 10 friends and they all want to go to???????//. Post your choice here please, no e-mails on location choice. Please feel free to call those places for yourself before making a choice, or re-making one. Everybody play fair and thanks for everybody's support. Everybody post up their choice, please.

http://www.rddyno.com/
---------------------------------
Ok, here's the rundown on R & D Dyno in Gardena: Single car is normally $75, 10 car minimum $50 per car. Saturday only, No Sunday option, with 10 cars, they would like to start at 8:00 AM, be out by 12:00 (noon). Darren is the main contact here. Saturday parking lot accomodations 8 to 12 cars max, balance in street, said that if we wanted to schedule runs then we would only have to show up about 15 mins before our run time. Food: Probably vending machines, definitely buy your own. Definitely no tuning between runs.
Sounds like business only. No fun, no food, and damn sure don't even think or ask about anything else. I offered to supply them with the address of the thread so they could come on the site and defend their cause and they did not sound interested.

They suck too no fun just business no play get a life ;)
 
that does suck,

I didnt see the time frame on those other shops, who wants to drive 100 miles to spend 60 bucks, and hang out for 2 hours. If worst comes to worst, we can cruis to a local park, and drink beer next to a whole bunch of cars that are considered gang member cars :D and drink beer till its on your shirts :eek:
