A Big Thanks for The Texas Rally

[Deezul1]

I would like to Thank the Guys and Gals from LSTDR for all their hard work to make this event happen. Also a BIG thank you to Peter From Southbend Clutch for bringing us some great tech info and being a great guy, To Barry for lunch (love the trailer Barry), to all the other vendors who took the time to load up all that stuff and bring it out for us to drool over and I cant begin to remember all your names and companies but thanks anyway, To all the vendors who donated items for the drawing. It was a lot of fun and lotsa really nice people were there.

Thank You

whoopsdan,



BD shirt? Didn't you win one of the 138 shirts ATS sent down? Which reminds me, where is that pic of Jim Fulmer's truck with those ATS stickers?

Can you put on and take off the ATS shirts while Locked up? What about sleeves pressure compared to the wolf pack shirt?

Had a good time!

Thanks to all who put on the Rally, Curtis, Mike and his wife, and the long list of others who pitched in. Look forward to next year.

Hopefully the weather will be better.

It was nice to get to see and talk to all the folks I have had the pleasure to get to know through the Rally and the new ones I met this year.

Andrew, don't give up hope, there's bound to be a DTT addition in your future. I may even help hook up your wire when I do the upgrade. I know there are a lot of guys out there that want to do that one!

Jim's twins and Dean's variable,wow, what a couple of well done and thought out mods.

It was good to get to see all of the guys I have upgraded with the DTT products and upgrades that made the Rally and get reports that all is well. Met several fellows and their wives that will be joining the pack. Look forward to that.

All in all it was worth the long drive and lack of sleep to be at the Rally. Can't wait for next year.

Had a great time at the Rally, a little short on people but the ones that were there we had a great time with. Bunch of new folks and ones that I know I talked to but can't seem to put faces and names together, hopefully we can get the pics that were taken then get some names with them. The only close call we had was TDK driving my truck at 65 in a 35 right past a cop(never looked) later I though how I'd like to have heard my truck come by the resort at 100 Kinda weird how so many folks were interested in what I had done and that I was hiding nothing, think the big turbo deal was Dean's with the variable(re-wrote the book on drive ability) Some asked about mileage on my truck, I got 19. 13 going down and 19. 53 coming back, but while I was in Kerrville I only got 12. 47 ... ... ... . wonder why It was well worth the 1000 mile trip, hope we can get together again for a dyno run like spring time and maybe I can bring something to the plate. It was a treat getting Peter to come down not only for the training lesson but the stories(bet Piers's ears were burning) Once again thanks to everyone that put the event on, paid for everything, and took care of us(The Ladies) you'll went above and beyond.

Big Thanks

Had a great time this year!!! Thanks again LSTDR for setting this up. Thanks also to all the vendors who participated in the event. We need have another rally in the Spring... ... ... I hate having to wait another year for the next one. Hope everybody had a safe trip home. Take care!!

What else is there to say?

I heartily second all the sentiments on how great the Rally was, how grateful I am to all who helped make it a wonderful event, and how cool it was to meet everyone.



Passed a couple of folks on my way back to Houston... wasn't sure if I'd see anyone, but did catch up with them somewhere between Columbus and Sealy.



Glad everyone had a safe trip to and from the Rally and I look forward to attending the next shindig!

Jim,

how do you think I felt? #ad
I could have taken care of that 100mph by the campground for ya too!!!



Mr. James,

If you put my transmission in, I would let you start a whole thread devoted to it. "I hooked up the Kid's wire!" Boy they would nomanate you as TDR Member of the year!!!

John, thanks for the relay, better that pushing the plunger up! Guess I better take a look at the factory one and see it I can get it cleaned up.



Jim



BOTW, You smoke cloud was huge Sunday Morning when I pulled out

 

[WeirCummin]

Dittos on the thanks to all

It was good to see all that attended and to put a name and face together for those that I hadn't met before. A good turnout considering the weather and conflicts with other events.



Jim, I'm not surprised at the interest in your turbo setup. We all know that it is something that works and is within the means of anyone to install them, maybe not the fabrication but kits are out there. Not that I'm taking anything away from your accomplishments, I know it was a lot of hard work and is way The VGT it very risky and has not been proven as of yet.



Thought I knew something about clutches until I met Peter. What a wealth of knowledge, great to have him on board for us shifty crowd.



Audrey and I are looking forward to the next event.
