Have been busy lately, but yes I will be there and will attack the track.

OH! by the way. About holding my hand and walking me through. I talked to my gal and she said -NO WAY - you were too cute!

 

[dan brooks]

Not sure if I'm gonna make it - the stuff has really been hitting the fan at work over the past few weeks... .



Walcott - Were you pulling out of the Echo Ridge apartments on Broadway/Sarnoff around 11:30 on Monday? Looked like your truck but I couldn't see the TDR badge - I work right next door and was leaving the office at the time.

 

[0013]

i still plan on making it. ill be in LA this weekend for the diesel pull. looking forward to meeting ya'll.

 

[Walcott]

Dan You have a good eye,That was me at Echo Ridge on monday.

AZPETE,please don't get so mushy when i'm on TDR,I have to face these guys at Maymaddness,your makin me blush man!!

Hey, I drool every time I see a 3rd Gen Cummins - yours stands out pretty well, too. If I could just match those six lucky numbers I'd have one of my own... .



Having some electrical problems with the truck, so making it next week is looking even less likely now.

 

[Walcott]

Dan, if you need a hand let me know,I'm headed to the lake this weekend so don't call till Monday. 790-1505 Always willing to help!!





Alan Oo.

 

[dan brooks]

Thanks, Alan - Had a current draw we thought might've drained the battery, but it ended up being just the memory for the radio/clock - not even enough to register on the meter. Turned out to be just a bum battery. One bullet dodged... maybe I'll luck out some more.



EDIT: Don't get drowned by the hurricane coming our way... hope you have a good bilge pump. I'll be doing a little wheeling tomorrow - probably a good thing Jeeps have drain plugs.

Just checking in, keeping AZ at the top of the rigs spotted forum. I'm pretty ready for Friday, it should be a pretty good time. It looks like everyone I mentioned above is going to go with me, so that's good.



Is anyone familiar with a brown, 4 door DuraMax in town (Tucson) that looks completely stock that a young guy drives (you'd know the one by the amount of power it has)? This description might be pretty generic, but this truck would stand out to you because: you can see what I have on my truck in my sig (probably above), and this guy blew the socks off me the other night. :--) As disappointing as that is to me, I'm not complaining because I'm so impressed. I asked him what he had done to it, and he said "everything" so I'm really curious.



If anyone knows this truck/ guy, you should have him out Friday to SIR. I'd like to see some of you with real trucks give him a run for his money!





Till Friday,

--Mike

 

[Walcott]

I haven't seen him around,I have run into a 01 dodge,he clams 650 hp at the wheels,I told him to com'on out to SIR and show us. I don't think he'll show as it seemed like alot of hot air. It looks to be a great Fri. night to race,It's sooo nice it's cooling down.

Have to go to Yuma tomorrow for work and let the boss know that I will be back by Friday afternoon. Am looking forward to being there, just will not have time to clean up the old white truck.

I waw in Kingman on Thursday the 16th and saw a new 4x4 CC ctd at about 12:30 had the the sticker on the rear window and a hitch cover, who could it be? I was at whataburger by the walmart.

 

[Buffalo]

Walcott-- Hi Alan. Thanks for the E-mail/invite to the races in Tucson. I hope to make it down tommorrow. Really looking forward to seeing more diesel people. I have a white '03, 3500, QC, 4X4, ARE shell with TDR badges and stickers on all 4 corners. What time should we be at the track? Looking forward to seeing you all! Joe Fihn.

 

[Walcott]

Joe,sorry I didn't get on earlier,I'm planning on heading to track around 6:30-7:00pm. I'l see you out there.

[dan brooks]

Sorry, couldn't make it tonight. Spent all day at Leon's getting 4" exhaust on the truck, then had to go to work for a few hours - by the time I finished up it was too late.

 

[J. Steve]

I imagine y'all that went saw us there:

I'll be in mine, I'm working on getting my brother to go (2003 white 4 door, short box, 37" tires) and two friends from my off-road club to go (1997'ish black excab, short box, ~10" lift, 38" tires) and (1997'ish white single cab, long box, ~6" lift, 35" tires). We all have Wildcat OFF-ROAD stickers on our windshields, or back windows so we should be identifiable by those.

I was sorry to not see more of you guys/gals there. All I saw was the white dually, and the blue four door 3rd gen- and didn't get to talk to either of you (very nice rigs I might say). I don't know if you all saw me run or not... it wasn’t a great run but I think when I get my PG7 w/ AFE my truck will really pick up. It has the power I think to run a low 16, or high 15, but It's suffocating right now so hopefully I can get it back out there after that (in the next few weeks sometime). I have a poor quality video of my run if you're interested (17. 1sec I think):

[Walcott]

I was lookin for ya!

Mike,I did see the 4 trucks but couldn't find you!The blue 4x4 was mine,the white dually belonged to AZPETE,who i might say did a great job for a first time racer!We had a good time racing and hangin out. Joe(BUFFALO) came down from PHX. to show support and enjoy the racing. Next time I'll figure out a place at the strip to meet. So all in all we had 8 trucks show up,not to bad.

look for new thread for Truckin Nationals in PHX.
