I noticed that a training course might be offered if there is enough interest. Anyone around the Atlanta area interested? I think it would be kind of neat. I for one need all the help I can get!

Looks and sounds great to me.

A "Tuning" Manual, included with the course, would be a good idea. :D

Cheers,

Charlotte, Altanta, Columbia would all be great.

I would be interested.

It would be great to get all the facts at one time. I've invested enough with ls1edit, efi and the cars, this would just make tuning so much better not having to just use the well known area's, and actually TUNE the engine.

I wonder if this is would be a course on how to use the software or how to change parameters to effectively tune a car? The software is very intuitive and I haven't had any problems understanding how to use it. My problem is understanding how all the parameters tie into one another and how they affect the outcome of a tune. I don't suppose I'm the only one in this boat?

I agree. The software is so intuitve it is a "no-brainer." I was hoping for something that explained how these parameters effect the tune. Sort of a laymans course in tuning.

The course would be both how to tune and how to use EFILive.

In that case, I would be interested as long as the course wasn't too far away.

Would the course manual be available for purchase separately
(for those of us who won't be able to attend the courses for some reason or other)...?

I'm in, too...if it is close enough for me to get there.

Part of the reason we are gathering "location" details from people interested in a course is so that we can plan the best locations to suit demand.
The other reason is to see if there is enough interest to warrant the expense of developing and running a course at all.
So far there has been more interest than I expected.

You can add two more from Texas on this. And I'll travel most anywhere for this one. Don't skimp on it, everyone will get the most bang for their buck the more in-depth and thorough the class, combined with appropriate reference materials!

Just my opinion here!

I was also thinking. I will have to pay 400 bux (maybe) for a 1 OR 2 DAY COURSE?

I think it will help a whole lot more if you can just make some video tapes up and sell them for 40-50 bux.

For myself it is really hard to get ALOT out of a 1 or 2 day course. You think about it and you are paying about 20 bux an hour for two days (at minimum). I think it would be alot better if you put the classes via (your own team) on tape and go into some detail yah know.

I want to attend, but i thought i was going to be paying 250.00-400.00 bones for at least a whole week of training. I am in the military and dont make all that much money, but when i do come accross some money i spend it well. I dont know if myself (having a wife and 15 month old daughter) could come accross something like this :( As much as i want to.

Oh well! I guess i will do what i have to do huh :D

I can understand with yah, but a live class give you the ability to interact and ask questions.

Personally on tape I will get bored and not pay attention, but if I fork out $400 I will be staying awake and wanting to get everything I can out of the class.

Considering the engineering classes I take are $1500+ an thats my job, $400 for something I like isn't that bad.

That's fine, but some of us have very busy schedules and in lieu of attending a class require a book/manual to read/study (...before going to sleep each night...).
