dyno day wausau sat may 10

Indiana GLTDR Breakfast

here is an update, kinda,



sounds like a lot of spectators will be there, due to the "hog of the century" being there and k+s sent a flyer out to all their customers.



unfortunately, the cummins may be in trouble. for those who remember kennedy with the duramax, he may have enough to win the competition. i have not heard any different dodges coming to keep the power in the cummins corner. we will have a strong showing but i dont think there will be any monsters there.



a rep from BD will be there.



supposed to be some people coming up from chicago, i dont know what they are bringing.



anyways, bring the SMOKE!!!#@$%! the people want to see it and the other brands dont have it. i know of four smokers that will be there. we need more there.



the doors will be open and no pipe will be put on the exhaust. (cost me about 20 hp last week when i tested my new truck)



any questions just ask or check out the other thread.

thanks, grizz
 
Some one lend me a set of shower nozzels

and or propane set up for the day we have to keep a cummins on top!! I am hoping to break 400? maybe more if lucky.

On Drugs

Took a Cummins on drugs to get by Kennedy :D Would like to see one compete with him on straight #2. Looks like some gassers are going to be running also. Should be a interesting.

What time will people be showing up? Will they serve breakfast? I like my eggs overeasy, bacon crisp, and lots of maple syrup for my pancakes.

I am sure some one could compete with Kennedy on Diesel only but maybe not from around here, Are they going to just give the high hp honors to him right away in the am and call it a day? How much hp do you think one can get out of a Dmax on fuel only money being no object? I would like to know. I won't be any competition for any one with a tiny 400 hp.

geez

csevers: Dyno will be in operation from 8AM - 6PM per K&S unless the crowd winds down early. So you have all day to compete!



Breakfast - not, lunch yes!
 
I don't know if I am actually going to make it, as I am suppose to work Saturday.



But do you know if BD will be offering any special price the day of, I might be interested in a X-Monitor.



On a side note I put on a DPP exhaust and have a Edge EZ that should be here by Friday. Sorry it isn't going to be a power house... ... yet any way... ... . :rolleyes:
 
Still planning on being there, but I'm waiting on work.

I hope to have my software upgraded before the weekend. I have a feeling I should be able to put down what Kennedy did last fall and maybe a little more. Only on #2.
 
I would've liked to try #2 alone. That would make things interesting (not to mention harder to over-rev). But I'm gonna be busy.



It's too bad it isn't a couple months later. My neighbor and I are working on twins for his truck *insert meniacal laugh here*. But we're still in the planning stages. It's too bad. He was Mr. Low Horsepower last time. Oh well. It will just have to wait for Goerand's.



Good luck to you guys.
 
i will come if we can run our own trucks. . its about a 6 hour drive for me so i need to know for sure because i will not let anybody touch my truck. i should be able to put down 600 horse on nitrous & my big injectors. will this be enough to keep the duramax behind the dodges or will i have to step up my nitrous & realy give her a sniff :D ... thanks kurt. .
 
propuller,

yes you can run your truck. i asked jason for the special trucks and hes said yes, the owner can run them.



i dunno what kennedy will be running.



the big blue chevy with the cummins will have plenty of smoke, i have inside details:D



see you guys saturday,

grizz
 
Well guys hate to say it but I won't be able to make it now. I have to work this weekend. Some dumb ppl decided to start a major test on Friday that has to run for 100 hours straight. Maybe next time.
 
Kennedy did bring his smoke and took the top hp at 457, Then by dump luck I came in with 415 hp and then another D-max at 413hp, I think the rest were below 400. There was plenty of smoke to see and some gassers to, Dave missed some really nice cars after he left. :mad:



Craig
 
ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!! I wish I coulda been there. I haven't changed anything except my filter is different and the new VP-44 and PE 4200. Maybe that would've been enough. Oh well. At least it wasn't a Ford. Say, how close was the nearest Ford anyway? And how did those fellas do with the Cummins converted Chevy's do? What were the prizes this time through? Just curious. Anyone get videos and pics?



Congrat's to Kennedy are due though. He has taken the Dmax to it's limits for sure. Great for him and good work. Congrat's again JK.
 
Jim has a lot of video of the dyno's. Revin Evan lost his "good" turbo fri so was running a back up and put down a little less than last year I think in the 370's way more fuel than he could burn, Rich put down somewhere around 380 to 90. I don't remember a ford up very high at all but there could been one I think Jim and John have the list video taped. There was not an official prize presentation so I don't know what Kennedy got for first but I got a sweet B-D jacket and K & S denam shirt for second, not sure what was given down the line.

Lost his "good" turbo? Well, that musta sucked. I got a spare if he needs it in the interim.



Congrat's on placing second. That's still not too bad. And the second place prizes aren't too bad. Hey, at least you'll get to use them. So far all I've used has been the jacket I won and the hat. Although I've since traded my Wyotech hat for a DHRA one. (on edit-Got to use the gift cert today. ) Congrats again.

Say, there is a rumor on the GM site that you were on drugs. Tell me that isn't so. I didn't think you'd resort to such a thing. Let me know, and I'll set them right.

Hope to see the videos and pics at the next event.
