I saw a couple of the KC guys heading out on my way to get my car tuned. Wish I could have gone!

I drove all the way out to KC and didn't even get a good tune. I was unaware that the guys had never tuned an emanage and basically had to learn the system as they tuned. We spent the whole day just getting the WOT to pan out. Stop and go sucks but put your foot down and OMG does it pull. I put down 307hp with a VERY rich a/f and VERY conservative timing. I hope to head somewhere a little closer to get the tune finished.

KC made it home safe, no tickets, and in good time. We had about 20 miles or so of straight hills and some decent curves that at least made the drive home interesting(not that we doubled any speed limits on some blind hills or anything. ). Also the passing on 2 lane roads, some of those were fun.

I had a GREAT time!!!
It was good to meet everyone and finally have an S2000 meet. I can't say thank you enough to all that had a hand in planning this. The shirts, AWESOME.
Mike, the roads down were amazing. I have had my hands in plenty of Scenic Drives, but have never come close to having roads consistently that good. There was always a curve, a hill, or a turn that kept you on your toes. My hats off to you. I hope everyone else had as much fun...

And yeah we saw you flash your lights... It wasn't until we got to Jeff city that we confirmed it was an S2Ki member.

I saw Dale and Tim at ForwardThrust. They spent half of the day working on MAPS that didn't weren't even switched on so there was a lot of wasted time. I had to leave before they were done to get back home in time for my shot (I am diabetic). After driving today and looking at the settings and maps, I am really disappointed.
