Hey guys,

I voted for 10/23 for a few reasons.
Weather will be getting much colder and rainy possibly by Halloween and after as it usually does.
Time change, gets dark pretty early.
Never been to a grudge fest, and that's the last one, so that would be cool.
How does it work exactly?

It's a whole month from now, we can get all our shiet together by then guys!

I'm good with whatever beforehand, BBQ definitely.

Gotta have good weather to do this stuff though and it gets sketchy the later you wait.

- Del

I voted for 10/23 also. Same reasons that Del said. Gotta have a BBQ. Don't even know for sure if I can come yet though. I will know by October 4 when I start my new job.

The 23rd would be best for me too.Chances are it'll be snowing in nov then I'll have to race my 4runner.It's a good 20 sec. truck.

i believe grudge fest is some sort of heads up racing, where you can go race anybody you want. just not sure of the details, rules.

The sooner the better. It's already getting colder and darker earlier. We don't want cold weather or rain to ruin the gtg.

So back on topic... is this deal gonna be on the 6th now?

Where do we meet and at what time? What do we bring? How long will it last?

Sounds fun! I think Patrick's v6 will be the only car I could consider going up against. But then again, he's further south than me. If my car broke down he could give me a ride home.

This is going to be sweet. Can't wait to meet all of you from out of town. Welcome to the new guy Patrick!

Terrell, don't sell your car. I know what you are feeling right now, it's like a never ending story with the problems these cars have. Some day you will get there though. It's not worth loosing all of the money you have already put into it. Starting over on another car will cost you even more money. Just my 2 cents.

Guys, what is Test N Tune anyways?
