I will work on it for you..you tell me how many guys you FOR SURE HAVE...and we will go from there.

Thanks man

Also..you know that Bismarck is ANOTHER 6 hours from the cities right? Thats a hella lot of driving!

PM returned my friend

As Blake knows FINAL dial in should ALWAYS be done on the street anyway. Dynos are nice to have thats for sure, but as far as tune quality a street tune is better than a dyno tune.

So are the cars going to be tuned on a dyno? Could he tune an E85 Evo with a reflash?

There is no AWD dyno in ND, thats kinda out if you have an Evo. Yes e85 evo on reflash would be right up his ally.

Well we had a great time last time Doug flew in. He tuned 11 cars and everyone was very happy with the results!

Well he is flying back in sometime mid September, I am not sure of the exact weekend yet, but it will be probably the 20-21st of Sept or the 27th&28th

Doug is one of the elite tuners in the country, just ask anyone that had there car tuned by him! He specializes in AWD cars ie. STi's Evo's, but he will tune any full standalone unit on a turbo car.

Doug is one of the best tuners I have ever talked to or had touch my car. I have had my previous cars tuned by him, and stand behind his work. He has been on Speed Channel/ Red line TV...and lots more. His Time Attack car is dominating the series this year! He owns TopSpeed in Atlanta Georgia!

www.topspeedsales.com if you guys want to check it out.

This time he is coming to just tune a few cars, I need a little work done, and a couple of guys in my shop, so he is coming back before winter hits.

I am limiting it to probably 6 cars, and I already have 3, so probably 3 more is all I will take.

The tunes will cost $400-500 depending on the car/EM system. You can PM me and I will tell you details on what your car would cost to get tuned.

For any 2wd cars I am trying to get Mag4's dyno for some of the day, but we aren't sure of that yet. Otherwise they will be strictly road tunes.

Just to give you a little idea, when I had him tune my stock turbo STi, my base run was 267whp 261lbs wtq ....... after the tune with no parts changed I was running 313/352

I am not saying everyone that gets a tune is going to gain 100hp, but this guy is good! He knows what he is doing, not only was my car faster, but MUCH smoother to drive, and much cleaner power delivery.

And if anyone wants to pipe in here that has ridden in my new STi after Doug tuned it, they can tell you how well that runs!

So post/PM me and let me know if your interested, and what your car/EM system is. I will be taking down payments for spots as time goes on here.

I also wanted to let everyone know that I will be opening my house to anyone that wants to stay from out of town. I have plenty of room, and me and Doug like to have a good time, so the night life should be pretty fun for the weekend as well.

Here is the urban racer article

(FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO MET DOUG, AND OR GOT YOUR CARS TUNE BY HIM!!)

and everyone else I guess

First off TopSpeed would like to thank all the companies that have supported us this season.

JRZ, Cobb Tuning, Whiteline, Playmoreonline, and Urban8designs

Onto our weekend of many emotions.

Thursday started out pretty tough, after searching high and low for our tires we usually run we kept geting the same answer "sorry sir, those tires are on backorder". Crap.... well after a long search we finally found a set in Knoxville, Tn. So I told the guy to hold them for me as I would be driving up first thing Friday morning.

So Friday morning I wake up at 5am and hop in my car, destination Knoxville, Tn. After driving 3 1/2hrs through some of the most amazing twisties and mountain roads I arrive at the Hoosier south distribution center. Spending a total of about 10mins there, to relieve the 3 redbulls, sign a few papers and load the car up with a fresh set of stickys I am back on my way to Atlanta. Back at the shop we mount the 4 new tires, and load up the rig.

At 8pm we leave TopSpeed and make the 4 1/2 hr drive to Nashville Super Speedway. Once we arrive at the track we are greeted by Todd, and Nick from redline. Chat with them for a few and then call it a night.

Saturday comes and we have the car ready to go but no driver.. Luke isn't scheduled to arrive till later Saturday night. So while sitting around I get bored and decide to take the car out for a spin to check a few things. Saturdays fast practice times around around 1.07's to 1.10's for all the teams.

Sunday, finally our driver has arrived, but not without issues. Lukes flight was supposed to arrive Saturday night was canceled. With his only option to fly out first thing Sunday morning he loaded up.

Luke finally got to see the track for the first time about 10am Sunday morning. In our third lap out in Luke's first practice session we set FTD with a 1.05.6. Not bad for our first outing, after a few more practice laps we decide to sit and wait for the timed session to get one on the books. First session, we leave the car on our low boost mapping since we felt confident that we could secure the overall and then go for lap record on second session. The plan worked as we ran a 1.04.5 first session out securing the Overall.

Knowing the car had alot more in it we felt confident we could break the overall track record. So with the car set on our high boost map we headed out. On Luke's first flying lap it happened, A 1.03.7 the new track record for any bodied car there even faster than the GT1 times. Second lap around looked to be an even faster lap, however on the back straight the clutch decided it had enough and gave out. Pulling the data from the second lap it looks like we should have run a low 03 or even possible a high 02.

This wraps up TopSpeed second Overall Grand Champion win and first Track Record. Not to mention back to back GC wins We should have some wicked video up in a few days after the editing is done.

Summit Point and VIR here we come, hope to see everyone out there.

Doug

OK OK!!!

Dates are in!!

Just to give everyone a little more time for this I am flying Doug in on June 20th-June 22nd. Friday-Sunday!

I am not sure 100% on what time he is flying in on Friday, we might do a couple tunes Friday night, then all day Saturday, and half day Sunday.

I am currently taking $100 deposits on tunes via Credit Card, Check, Cash, or Paypal. 99% of tunes are $400, and $50 each additional map you want...ie (race gas map)

This is going to fill up fast, I have 13 guys interested, and I think I am capping it off at 10, so you will wanna get with me ASAP.

You can PM me on here, or email me at [email protected]

Thanks guys, really looking forward to it.

P.S. Once again if anyone is coming in from out of town, I have plenty of room at my house, forget getting a hotel, lets party!

Heres a couple of pictures of my STi

Thought I would share

I don't check NA anymore, but if you haven't posted this there, you should.

Also being as though you're from Bismarck...does Smalls have his new Hatch up and running yet?

I am not sure if it is running yet.

I can't wait to see that car though...should be pretty mean!

It is on NA...thanks though....

Spots are filling up guys, I am capping this probably at 10 cars.

Should be a fun weekend.

Hopefully will have dates mid week

Daaang Doug is headin up there?

FYI, this guy is a local legend down here in GA. This is a GREAT opportunity for getting a real tuning genious to bring out the best in a setup.

Thanks for bringing the perspective in on how good he is.

Anyone know there in? Stage two WRX's, STi's, Evo's.....there are NO tuners up here, I am sure someone needs a professional tune.

I am afraid that alot of people don't realize how crucial, and how very much better you car will run with a pro tune.

Call if you have any questions.

Will he be bringing his own computer, (i assume with all Software) to tune ecutek, I already have ecutek but dont have the software, and my computer doesnt have the correct serial port.

O yeah..he has it all man.

should have a haltech e8 powered sr20 240 running by then, he would be interested in this

What are you running for EM?

yeah pretty sure we are doing street pulls. We could try to rent a 2wd dyno if you guys want to pitch in. The AWD guys are screwed though.

AEM/Accessport/ecutek/utec/hydra any full stand alone, or piggyback that I know of

check out the website of the company...

Just like any professional tuner, most of them won't tuch the stock ECU freeware hacks. (or any that I know)

I'm probably down for this. Does he do enginuity/romraider tunes at all (reflashes)?

No he doesn't...sorry

I have not posted on here much, so I am not 100% sure if this is the place to put this, but it seem safe. as a General Topic.

As the title says, I am flying a tuner into Bismarck probably the end of next month (April) He will be doing road tunes only because I am not renting a dyno. (Open to if someone wants to, but there are no AWD dyno's around and thats what most of the guys have)

He specializes in AWD cars ie. STi's Evo's, but he will tune any full standalone unit on a turbo Honda, Supra, ect....

Doug is one of the best tuners I have ever talked to or had touch my car. I have had my previous cars tuned by him, and stand behind his work. He has been on Speed Channel/ Red line TV...and lots more. He owns Top Speed in Atlanta Georgia!

www.topspeedsales.com if you guys want to check it out.

I am trying to get a quality little group of cars together for the tune. Anywhere from 3-10 guys is fine with me, he will be here for a couple of days.

The tunes will cost $350-500 depending on the car/EM system. You can PM me and I will tell you details on what your car would cost to get tuned.

Just to give you a little idea, when I had him tune my stock turbo STi, my base run was 267whp 261lbs wtq ....... after the tune with no parts changed I was running 313/352

Thanks guys! I will hope to become a little more part of the community now that I have a car again! Can't wait to get to Sabin

I also wanted to let everyone know that I will be opening my house to anyone that wants to stay from out of town. I have plenty of room, and me and Doug like to have a good time, so the night life should be pretty fun for the weekend as well.
