DYNO SESSION 2009 - Official Post!

[admin]

That's right, "We're Baaaack!!!"

CB Performance Presents: The Dyno Session 2009 in So Cal

But this year will be off the hook as we move back to our roots.  This year's  event will take place where VW performance originated: Orange County, California.  This event is one you don't want to miss!  You think you've seen some high powered Volkswagens in your day?  Think again!  These cars will blow your mind with the power they are putting out.  Last time we put on the event, Eric Madson (in the Great 8 exhibition class) from Grand Junction, Colorado took the title of "The World's Most Powerful Volkswagen" with a mind blowing 753 Horsepower!  

Will Eric repeat and take top honors with him back to Colorado?  Or will the top prize stay in So Cal this year?  I don't know, but one thing is for sure, it will be a shootout for all to see!  (If you missed the event in 2007, Click Here!)

And just to be safe to remove the "Orange County Correction Factor", we're bringing in our own dynamometer from outside the area.  (Actually, we just wanted to use a mobile chassis dyno so we could put on a great event!)  We're going to drag the dyno into Fullerton, California on Saturday, October 31st.  Rancho Performance Transaxles has graciously agreed to let us hold the event at their awesome new facility.

Please excuse the American Muscle, but I wanted to show you the mobile Dyno.

I'd like to thank Rick Tomlinson and CB Performance for once again being our title sponsor for the event!  We also would like to thank Sam Shackleford and Rancho Perfomance Transaxles for also renewing their sponsorship of our "Great 8" Class and housing our event.

Please check back often to see our most recent updates!  Mike Herbert and I will add them to this thread as more details become available.

See You in So Cal!

Where are the entry forms on this site?  Last week I down loaded one, but it was for last years dyno session in the desert (Las Vegas).  Now I can't find that entry form either.  Thanks for the help.

Hey Guys!  Thanks for the kind words!  No go tell your friends!

We haven't made the application forms available yet.  We're gonna build a bit more hype first, update the site with the current cash payouts collected to this point, and then put the application on this thread.  That's why we have the "will be available" statement on the Dyno Session home page at this point.

THIS EVENT IS GOING TO BE HUGE!!!!!!!

Will Eric Madson repeat as The World's Most Powerful Volkswagen?
Will the Devil's Hot Rod be back and run another 666 peak HP number?
Who will make up the "Great 8" in 2009?
Which street cars will make up our classes?
Will we see a 200HP N/A Street Car?
Will anyone in the Forced Induction Street Class top Mike Scott's 515 HP number from 2007?

I don't know the answers to these questions as of yet, but it's going to be a blast finding out on October 31st!

I'd like to update you on the sponsors for the classes that Mr. Herbert has worked so hard to obtain!

Rancho Performance Transaxles - Sponsor of the "Great 8"


LowBugget.com/VWTurbokits.com - Sponsor of the new "Pump Gas 91" Class


VW Paradise - Sponsor of the "Forced Induction" Class


Old Speed - Sponsor of the "Normally Aspirated" Class

Thank you SO MUCH to our sponsors!                    Everybody Say, "Thanks Mike!" for getting our sponsors!

If you or your company is interested in donating to the prize pool for any of the classes, please contact Mike or myself!

Thanks!  Spread the Word!

Half of the "Great 8" are now confirmed!  Who will make up the rest of the Great 8?  Care to speculate?

We have an idea, but we're not telling... yet!  

BUT, as soon as we can, Mike and I will be making some BIG announcements about the cash and prizes we've gathered to this point and what we will be giving away as prize money!


Again, if your company is interested in donating to our prize pool, please contact Mike or myself and let us know which class(es) you care to sponsor.

Thanks!

Now I'm in Pahrump, NV... Home of legal prostitution, but at least I sell Valtrex!

Here's my latest update... I've been working like a dog so I can take tomorrow off to help set up at Rancho. I've been working all night to get the website ready for a live video stream for all of you out of town VW fanatics! The video stream will be hosted by both Dyno Don and myself.
This is a first for us with the streaming video, so please bear with us if you're experiencing issues. There will be no need to sign up for anything, just click the link I'm going to provide, and you'll see the program! We're real excited!
Lastly, with a couple of the guys in the great 8 breaking stuff at Drag day, there are now a few more spots available to Dyno your car! Get in touch with Mike at Rancho ASAP!
Thanks, and see everybody on Saturday!
