5th Annual MNTDR Dyno Day!

[JasonCzerak]

The day is looking to be a nice day (tho a bit chilly)

Looking at the weather, looks to be mostly sunny and 51!



Tho, unfortunately, the day to wash our trucks is prolly that Saturday morning since it's going to be raining all freaking week. When did Minneapolis turn into Seattle?

Jason are you changing lines of work or is this a new hobby , an other weather speculator ?

New hobby. And my predictions of a perfect last Saturday were spot on! 60 and sunny for the race track. . Just not windy enough to keep the inner cooler free of massive amounts of heat buildup

 

[JasonCzerak]

Well folks. I'm willing to do a "show and tell" as to how to install an oil bypass filter on a 3rd gen.



This is all assuming Duluth Diesel gets my PM's and gets the parts to bring with him prior to the event!



I've never done this before, I'm assuming Duluth diesel has. :-laf :-laf :-laf.



Doesn't look to difficult from the posts and what not I've seen.



I'll do the install after I dyno... JUST IN CASE something is leaking don't need to oil up the dyno room.

 

[JasonCzerak]

Per suggestion by Chuck, I may not do the install should the mounting for the bypass filter not go smoothly or require funky tools that we forget. So don't get hopes up to much if you wanted to see/help out with the install.

Well only a couple of days left before this event, I wanted to get this back up to the top for all the last minute people to see that might be able to run.

This should be our best year yet... ... ... ... ..... Oo.

Unfortunately, I lost the tailpipe behind my resonator 2 weeks ago, and I haven't gotten the replacement exhaust on yet.

That shouldn't stop you from comming up!

I had a blast, weather was great, a lot of new faces again. Also again I was so busy with making sure things went as planned with Josh's truck and getting the prizes ready to give away I did not have a chance to meet everyone.

There were some very nice looking trucks there, I would have like to gotten to get a face with ride. Although I did take a walk and look at a few... ... . very nice guys.

Matt you are a trip... ... ... ... ... ... best bud anyone can have, I think next summer at Hooters at the Saturday bikini car wash... ... ..... well I can only imagine what will happen... ... ... ... so when are we getting your ride?

Really though we had a great trun out, although the parking seemed to scatter us bad it was still fun... ... ... . later, Jim.

As you guys can see, Great turn out, awesome dyno numbers, and a day I personally will never forget! This years dyno day is the reason I keep putting this stuff together. Meeting so many people, seeing some old friends, and watching EVERYONE have a great time makes all of it worthwhile.

ALSO! I know there were 9 people turned away to run on the dyno. I am very sorry. In the future I'm going to make it a 25 truck max (Diesels only as well) first come first serve. If your one of the 9 that got turned away, please PM me.

Thanks again to the staff of HiTech for doing a phenominal job!
