No worries Nate. Do what you need to do. If you can't make it I'l drink a PBR in your memory. Just promise me you'l make it down to NCCAR.

I can't help you if you don't ask...My first recommendation is to always PM BlueR first.

I don't get a big "hook up price" on the gear set, but since the majority of my gears were blown in my used transmission it was about the same price to go with the MFactory setup. In the end, a new OEM transmission would have been a few hundred dollars cheaper but my setup is better. :shrug:

Man I can't wait for this. Looks like Brian (asian-g) will be down on Saturday night and a HT guy that I don't know (I assume is friends with mark) will be down to shoot photos in trade for floorspace, sounds like a steal to me

That's cool about Brian. Kevin is Marks friend. He's a good guy, Iv known him a few years now. He was the guy responsible for last years photos in Honda Tuning. He's definitely a good.photographer.
