| Hey Ron and Rik, Great news for you guys - We are moving to Mentone! They Clayton lease didn't come through - so we have got a BRAND NEW factory in Mentone, with all the goodies. This place looks amazing and I'm very excited to move in. We will be up and running by the 14th of Feb 2013 at this stage form a mechanics perspective and Dyno tuning from the end of Feb onwards. Launch details to be advised. I'm now taking bookings for people who want to come down to get their work done! |

| Nice one Costa, I'm not sure exactly where Mentone is but know its closer than where you are now. It looks like I got an ECU/Solenoid problem that hopefully will be fixed soon, if not I'll have to book it in. |

| Office is nearly complete, hoists are getting delivered this week. 2x 2 post and 1x 4 post with another 2 post coming soon as we get more work on and need the room. Furthermore, we are working on a state of the art tuning center with proper knock detection equipment, Motec Datalogging and Motec Lambda sensors. In 2 years we will be upgrading to a Mainline 4wd dyno with all the fruit and datalogging a tuner could want. In addition, if you want to tune your own car, we will offer attractive dyno rental terms to owner-tuners. If you're a tuner with no dyno - don't worry! My dyno is available for lease on a per hour basis. Official Dyno launch day scheduled for the March long weekend and I may do a SC only soft launch on the 2nd of march Who's down for a Dyno day + sausage sizzle, drinks and so forth? |

| Always good to have a chat. If my car is on the road, i'll swing by. Swear the damn thing spends more time off the road being worked on. Is this normal with turbo cars?! LOL Can drop off parts to Kurt and Costa at the same time |

| I'm pushing the dyno day to late-end of March as I have a bunch of work to get done for customers and I'm a one man band at the moment. Like our page on facebook and follow the progress of the workshop here: www.facebook.com/RacetuneAus |

| I need to bring my car down for you to have a look at and see what it will cost me to get it fixed. Transmission is really bad. No longer wants to take off in D, have to put it in L just to take off. |

| Nope no dyno day yet - I'm still fixing up the workshop and pumping out the work so customer's can get their car back asap. What's the general interest in a dyno day run? Can people make a list here of who will have a run? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. etc |
