    I'm actually going to amend my previous statement. I'm going to try to be up there on Thursday morning to participate.

    I've got an NM Engineering Downpipe Back 2.3 inch diameter, 3.5 inch tips exhaust.

    Tigger got his exhaust installed this week, when I signed up it was in a box in the living room. It's a Magnaflow 16662, I like it!

    So far I don't hear a drone on the highway, and the sound is nice and aggressive.

    I'm not sure I can do the exhaust challenge because I'm doing the Glamour Shots for MINIs and we start shooting at 4:00. It will depend on how close the shoot site is to the ending of the exhaust sound off.

    Thanks, everybody for the interest in this new event. Over on NAM, there was some discussion about moving it to another location. For a couple of reasons, I think it's best to keep it in the village as planned. Within the village, we are a sanctioned event and Fontana likes us. Outside, we are subject to other authorities that might not like us. We would also be deserting most of our audience if we are not in Fontana Village. I think the traffic issue can be handled with 3 flagmen. The rest of my home club, GulfSouthMotoring, will be at the jetboat rides when this is happening, so I need volunteers for the flagman (or woman) jobs. I'll bring the flags, but it would probably also be good if you could have a walkie-talkie. If you want to volunteer, but will be a driver, or will arrive late, or have to leave early, please indicate that you will be part-time, and why.

    I'll try to get in on this too...

    My exhaust is a RMW Race Header, Random Technology Super High Flow cat, 2.5in outlet to 18" Vibrant resonator split to each side, reduced to 2.25in and then through a 12" Vibrant resonator on each side.

    It's a new to me setup, I have no idea what it sounds like yet.

    Since we're going on the Biltmore run we may not make it back in time for the sound off :-(

    I have come to a disappointing realization. Since the beginning of April, I have been having some kind of heart problem that causes me to have very little energy or stamina. I have had some tests, but I don't meet with the cardiologist until Monday. I do know how I feel, however. I get way too tired way too easily, and like this, it just isn't wise to go up to Fontana this year. I think Aaron's post in the safety thread, where he listed the conditions under which one should not drive the Dragon (one being when you are tired), finally removed what little doubt I had left. Since I'm the one who originally volunteered to run this event, there is now a need for someone to take over. My Fontana room (2 queen, I think) is going to be available, too. :sad:

    Sorry to hear of your health issues. You will be missed but it is more important that you get this resolved.

    Sorry to hear about your condition and certainly understand. Your health is more important than anything else. Hope all goes well with you and your condition returns to normal soon.
