Yep its a Saty!!! And little over a month away(about 5 weekends from now)....Thought that would give time for ppl to get ready and or time-off to come!!!...I think LKLD Nissan is going to bring out some 07 Z's for display also...Still waiting to hear back on that one...I've seen a 240 in TPA with about 450 on da dyno, so up against some F/I Z's and G's it should be a good race!!! Hope u make it out!!

Should be a pretty good turnout. A lot of people will probably just go to look at the cars. There isn't much to do in lakeland, so if there is an event like this, it's pretty much the thing to do here.

Why not have the meet somewhere else.....at least it's better than nothing!! Even though it sucks about the drag being cancelled. Just a sugestion.....

When is he moving into the new shop? He should have a grand opening type of deal there if it's soon. I'm waiting for a local dyno to tune on.

Well the time frame is too short to move somewhere else...But from what I understand, the ppl leasing the track are now looking into building their own...Turst me I wish there was a way to still do this, I'm just as disapponited as the next person..:-/ ....I'll see about meeting at his shop if you guys like..(P.S. he's doing a built motor for an 03-04 Z06 for TT's:eek: ). It's over buy Lakeland Linder Airport..(alot of parking there)..Post back and let me know???

The dyno he uses has all the additives to tune even the factory ECU while on the dyno....I'll see if we can turn this into a dyno day or something..:hs:

A friend of mine has a shop in the same complex as him. I heard he didn't have the dyno up and running yet. I have AEM and a wideband, so I just need the dyno to tune my timing maps for pump and race gas.

Yeah your right, but he tunes on a dyno on the northside somewhere. Lookup Extremeturboshop.com and the name is Rob Cease tell him I sent ya. And he'll hook u up...He's supposed to have one in soon..

I'm up for whenever/wherever! It doesn't really matter to me. I live in the Po'duck town of Zephyrhills and don't know anybody with a Nissan other than my father-in-law ('93 300zx). He had planned on going as well. I think I'm the only one in Zephyrhills that has even heard of 240sx or Nissan's in general. It's essentially a Ford/Chevy town. Let me know if you can get something together.

I'm not talking about the dealership, I'm talking the city Lakeland Nissan meet. I've got at least 5 people that just work with me that will attend, we could have a meet/BBQ at a park, we usually go to the park near tigertown.
