The Motor City Marauders Dyno Day was a huge success! Over the course of the day we had 16 Marauders, if not more! Lidio did some tuning, both with SCT Chips and SCT Tuners. The Dyno got a workout, thats for sure. It was a hot and humid day, but the Marauders turned some good numbers anyway.

Lidio conducting a seminar on how to use the hand held SCT tuner to a group, a few members purchased one today.

What a Day Indeed! :D

Having a good turnout and picking up yet even more members is a great way to start the season :rock: We had all colors represented, as well as most stages of modifications. Stock, chipped, chipped and gear, blown, etc, etc.

Many were there to see what their car could do. Other came for that plus get some SCT tuning. Others came just to watch and learn. There were so many configurations to look at and compare.

It was nice to meet some of the new guys too like Kevin and John. And nice to put a face with a name Steve.

Again, a great day, and a great first MCM Event Day! Congrats all! And thank you to Lidio for hosting us :up:

John, have you convinced the wife yet? ;) I just know there's a Trilogy in your future:D

I had a blast today. I got my chip installed and testedand hung around a little. After a while I left Lidio's shop and went to Belle Tire for two new tires. The way I was driving today I may have to buy new rear tires every month. Curse you Lidio! You've made it too much fun. :banana:

The pictures look impressive guys,Looks like I missed a good one.I came by around 7:30PM but everyone was gone.On the good side the invasion of the Rock-n-Roll hall of fame was one to go down in the books.Berry(Cruisetaker) was the ultimate host and even though rain spoiled the drag racing part Berry had every angle covered.Hell most of them are still there.Woody`s in the rain today? :up:

Missed the get together cause had to put new brakes on the Sport Trac, and had a stuck drum. :mad2: Looked like a great time. Maybe next time.

Hey guys


I’m very pleased to have been a part of and host the Motown Marauder club dyno day at my facilities. Hanging with the regulars and meeting the new guys made for a real good time.

I look forward to continuing to support the local and national Marauders. And especially look forward to the next Marauder get together/Dyno day at my facility. Once a year doesn’t seem soon enough, how about another one in the fall??? Say late September or October??

Good Morning Motor City Marauders,
Yes, I know I just got off duty, and yes, I am back on duty. I had a great time with you guys and it was nice to finally meet most of you. The MCM's are an awesome group of guys and AlternativeAuto can definitely back-up it's reputation.
Thanks for the hospitality,
Kevin
