The Cadillac museum sounds great. Maybe leave the XF at home and bring the CTS : )

Then everyone else would have to bring their CTS.

I'm out of luck on that, I don't have a CTS. Besides I like my XF, only get to drive it a little.

Hey guys,
I was by Eurocharged in Motorwerks in Houston today and introduced myself to Jerry Thorton. I mentioned we were having a GTG at Murphy's in Winchester. He said he and his wife might try and come just so he could meet some of us. He also said he would love to do a Crossfire dyno nite and feed us and dyno a bunch of our cars. Thought I would let you all know just in case there would not be room to add two more people. What do you think? You can contact and invite to join us or I will call and e-mail him. Let me know thoughts and feelings. His e-mail is:
jerry@eurocharged.com

Terry would have to bring his 400hp Candy Red Camero, and I'd have to bring my Blaze Orange Neon SRT4 (clone).

Do you want to pass this on to Jerry by e-mail. I just discovered that I don't have his phone number. I can e-mail him if you don't want to. He is a very likable guy, took me on a short tour of his place ( Dyno room, etc.) Had some nice cars in for work and sell. He mentioned it is his wife's birthday on the 15th, I think. If you send this on to him include the directions agenda of trip etc.

If you would like to invite him ( be nice if he had a Crossfire) Some of our members may be interested in a Dyno. You can send him the info when and where. Thanks for looking into this.

I'll send him an e-mail today. Enjoyed getting to meet him, it will be good for us to have a tuner guy close around even if he doesn't own a XF.

Jerry did my tune earlier this year. Didn't get to put it on a dyno because he had just moved back to Houston and didn't have the shop. I'm interested if yall get a dyno day to see if he can tweak my car a little more now that I have added a few things. Not sure if I can make the GTG but I will try.

TX-XFire, I 'm not sure if he is coming or not. I will try and see on Monday. He told me that they just spent $10K on software upgrade for the DYNO. If we do get a dyno nite in Houston, I'm sure he would fix you up, seems very nice.

I heard back from Jerry Thorton of Eurocharged in Houston. He is going to come. He also said that he would do onsite ECU flashes for the group at $250 each. He wants to know who would like to have one so he can bring equipment to do it. Please give a head count ,so Jerry will know. This is a great opportunity. I'm in.
List for Flash tune:
