ATS sponsors the 2nd Annual High Desert Diesel Roundup Sept. 24,25

[catoiler]

Unfortunately, we haven't been able to secure the dyno. One isn't ready, the other costs 4k, just can't swing it this year. You can almost be sure of it next year. This years event is shaping up to be a monster, it will only go bigger from here. Look forward to seeing you again Neil.



Craig

Craig,how about if someone were to sponser it for ya? Any takers?

That dyno shop sucked last year, they didn't know what the heck they were doing, used to dynoing gassers I guess. I watched them then said no way

I can admit, I am loosing sleep over what the Scheid Dragster is gonna do next weekend. Not to mention the exhibition pull-off between BBD and Scheid, that will be a sight to see! Oo.

Joe

Joe, now that is funny right there, pull off, it won't be close that thing is a beast !!!!



Not to mention its before the money pull, so I have to decide if I want to risk breaking and putting myself out of the money Wouldn't be that way if the Exhibition pulls were at the end like most pulls, Hint, Hint, Hint, Mr. Craig. I wouldn't even think about pulling a second time then

Hey Scott,Craig has to make sure he can cover the purse! If he breaks all the big dogs before the pull he is a shoo in to win!No problem covering it then! :-laf

Dyno

What time did you dyno Neil?

I was there first thing that morning and pulled 320HP and 750ft. lbs with my manual, but was curious on the autos as well who obviously had more power with their mods. - JGheen

Joe,



I think I was there late, didn't get to see any other trucks go. But I did hear some discouraging stories about how it wasn't a good diesel dyno facility, especially for autos. I'm not competitive and don't put much stock in numbers. They're interesting points of reference, not absolutes. BTW, my torque number 580 - what's up with that? I got some new parts since last year and am curious to get an idea of the difference using a similar measuring stick (then I can update my sig ). The important fact is that I'm happy with the way my truck runs



See you there,

Neil

BBD

Well, hopefully you won't break and you can at least give it your best shot against someone with similar power.



Joe

 

[BigBadDodge]

Joe, Craig said there was another exhibition class at the end, so yeah I will let it all hang out in that class but they have way more power then I have. You will see that.



BBD

 

[TRAMPLINEMAN]

but they have way more power then I have.

BBD

From what we've seen with your truck, I'd didn't think that was possible.

 

[BigBadDodge]

Thanks, but oh it is, I have seen those trucks before up close, not even the same animal. Heck I could change my clutch and bring the fuel back and still drive it on the street if need be, not those beasts, they are literally guted in side custom dashes, 4 and 5 disc clutches, drop boxes, reversers, miltary axles, huge turbo's, lots of water injection etc...

 

[hemijustin]

Oh come on BBD you have the advatage/ remember your running the proper altitude air in your tires. who knows were these guys got there air

are you going to run your boggers on the clay?
