Hey Robert,
I was born and raised in the Dayton Ohio area and now live about 20 miles north in New Carlisle. Yes.. I know where Fairfield and Hocking Hills state park are. Are you originally from this area?

Well... I don't want to deflate your ego...but I was really hoping you would suck up to Kim to see if you could drive us around in her new SUV that day.

No,
Back in '03 when I was shoping for equipment for our business I asked the manufacturer for a reference and he referred me to a shop in Fairfield. My wife and I decided to take a combined business/vacation trip to Ohio. I asked my cousins in Delaware to recommend somewhere interesting to see in Ohio and they suggested Hocking Hills. Very cool place! we have been back once since then and might go again Memorial weekend.

What are you trying to do give both Ben and me heart attacks??? Slow down there Stud Boy. I'd just be happy with a Big Mac and fries.

Kings Island is in Mason Ohio. Half way between Dayton and Cinncinnati. We are about 20 miles north of Dayton up SR235. You pass us on your way down. Kings Island is a must see place to bring the youngster's!

Catching up on the thread after a few days away.

Just got back tonight after touring the fine state of Indiana,got to visit Terra Haute,Indianapolis,Columbus & finally Kokomo. Glad I had a rental to burn miles off, I think I drove 600m or so in the past 3 days.
I had planned on stopping by Brenspeeds this afternoon after Kokomo, but I finished up late & didn't make it.
I'll be calling Dave tomorrow morning & see if they can still fit me in Feb 15th.
I'll let you know Scott, if I'll be going in that day.Hopefully Dave will be able to still fit me in. Brent didn't think there would be a problem.

Ben, Are you getting cams in yours on the 15th as well?

Actually if all goes as planned I should only be around 40-50 RWHP less, and my power doesn't take time to get the fan wound up. I'm figuring a high 30 RWHP gain on the parts, based on Brent's tech news and if I up my n2o to 100 shot.

Oh, and as far as watching a movie, I've seen enough video screens in cars on "PIMP MY RIDE" and when the rice patrol comes around on Saturday night.

Hey, welcome back Larry. I was wondering where you have been. I will keep my fingers crossed for you that they can still fit your dyno tune in on the 15th. Let us know.

Yep, your power is instant. You know- that is as long as your bottle is full, the outlet is open, the line is purged, etc. etc. C'mon Ben, I was trying to pick on Old Indian Dude here, help me out a little!

LOL "PIMP MY RIDE"....

Hi Scott,
We have been to King's Island many times. Our family has spent more time vacationing in Ohio than in Michigan. I had the image in my mind that you were closer to Cinninnati because your profile says you're from southwest Ohio, but I guess Dayton would also be considered southwest. I bet your favorite attraction in Hocking Hills is "Old man's Cave".LOL.
