Default Anybody want to do some VBox runs over Labor Day weekend?

Does anybody in our area (south San Francisco bay area) have a VBox and want to do some performance runs over the long Labor day weekend? It would be nice to get a bunch of people together to do some runs and start populating the upcoming VBoxDB (VBox DataBase).

If I managed to get my hands one one, how many people would sign up for a few minutes of their time this weekend?

If you're curious what a VBox is, check out vboxusa.com. Basically it's a GPS-based data logger. It's how you can come up with some accurate 60-130 times (or whatever you want to measure).

Drop me a line if this happens, I should be around at least one of the days this weekend and we can snap a few nice photos in between for fun. It would be interesting to see what my car will do...

If you come...I'll have to get my car detailed. You'll cost me $$$!

Maybe we can convert into another "stroker BBQ" and VBox run event. On the other hand, I'll already be entrtaining two sets of relatives over the weekend -- one of them hot and single!

I'm down. Let me know.

If you come out Shaun, let me know. I need to give you back your camera mount.

I'm there for the VBox. But if you want to say you like to swing both ways, I won't tell your girl. Explains how you pay for your mods...

Did I really say that about my wife's twin sister? Of course she's HOT -- she's my wife's identical twin! It's just that my wife is slightly hotter!

Hmm, sounds like a few people are interested. Let me see if I can pull off a BBQ VBox thing. I better talk to the better looking twin and see what times are available.
