Jorge...stupid question...I know that the official release of the UTEC is not set until 9/14, but say a certain WRX caravaned there with you...and say that certain WRX driver wanted to have his car tuned...do you think a UTEC might be available to that certain WRX driver.

Your thoughts?

P.S., I would obviously meet you at the OH turnpike...

That's what I figured. I was planning on seeing a concert on 8/30...of course, I would be very inclined to miss it for a UTEC, and the accompanying tuning advice! I will talk to the boss (wife) and see if I can make it.

Well from the other post, Nermit, Dylan and I all would like to go.

So count me in.

I'll let the others speak for themselves.

Assuming they do not go, that implies that you will drive. Agreed?

I'd cram you in.. but I don't think 3 in the back for 10 hours would be comfortable.

Seeing how I would have to ride bitch the whole way because I'm the smallest, there is no way I’m going in your car.

If I'm the only other one going then I'll drive. I just don't like putting more miles on when I'm already over the "norm", but oh well.

How many miles is it one way?

IIRC it's in the 700's

At least it's highway miles....

You can't even tell two days apart at times, let alone be awake at 5:00 in the morning.....

Have fun guys. I already have plans for that weekend, otherwise I'd be in.....

I don't think there will be a problem getting it done before then, Jorge. Provided you've got the parts, all it is is a matter of swapping time.

The thing is that he was going to make reservations. If he couldn't get the car done in time, well that would just be a waist of money. Hopfuly it's just a CV joint, thats an easy fix.
