[BIG BOB]

Just wanted to give everyone ample notice for DIESEL THUNDER. The date has been set! SEPTEMBER 7TH! Mark you calenders, day-timers and palm pilots and get the word out. If anyone has any questions, you can email either Jason Burton or myself.

Thunder

OK BB, what activities might we partake of?

More importantly, WILL THERE BE FOOD???Oo. Oo.

 

[BIG BOB]

HVAC,



YES, there will be food. BBQ style.



There will be a Show & Shine, Dyno runs and lots of BS. We don't have facilities for drag racing or pulls. Sorry

 

[HVAC]

Events

OK, then I will enter the quickest beer run and the smoke a honda competitions



I may need to yell at co-pilot "Shorty". See if

he's up for a trip. That's if he's outta the jail up there in Call Gary eh!



BBQ sounds great! We often have elk burgers when

attending a Ramboree down this way. I'll bet you outback folks have more exotic vittles What I'd give for some roasted breast of moose with mint sauce, or maybe some caribou tips!!! Oo. Oo. My sensibilities are watering just thinking of such a

feast



I'd sure enjoy lockin' horns with y'all. We'll

see if I can bail "Shorty" out in time for a run up your way.

Nowell, the ex TDR Police should be there too

 

[HVAC]

POLICIA!!!

POLICIA!!?? AAAIIIEEE (means YIKES)!!!=O



No policia para mia por favor Policia = mucho peligro/peligroso.



Costco? OK then, Costco moose steaks with mint sauce. Sounds fine by me



We should check to see if that drag strip down in Wally Wally is open on Friday prior. Give us something to do.

No no, HVAC, El Policia en el Trucko Rojo se tiene gearos 4. 10 y no tiene mucho velocidad. No es peligroso!



El HVAC-O-mobile es MUY RAPIDAMENTE!



It would be great if you could show! I'll see what I can do to ensure sub-triple digit temps



I told some of the Canuk brothers to come on down and hang with us at Diesel Thunder including Scotty

[willyslover]

I'm out... . lol

Looks like another run this summer... might be out of the dog house by then... could use the excuse that we need to get to know the town [Spokane] before we move to Cd'A so Homey would know where to shop. . hehe

Vaughn. . better leave Roxie home or Sharon will steal her... and blow out the bugs so there is room for more

 

[Lil' Dog]

Sounds like a blast... I know Scotty is already rounding up a BOMBVoy down to see ya. . Yes with Great White, she is finally back on her feet again.



I'll have to see, but that is a busy time for my business. Would really like to hang out with the NWBOMBers . .



J-eh

 

[rspinks]

I'm a Canuck, I wanna come too! I don't have many bombs to show off but I can drink beer and eat pretty good . Actually I will probably be in Trail/Rossland BC at that time on vacation so it's only a few hours down there.



Got an agenda/entry form/etc. ? Dyno runs or just show? TIA



Rich

 

[willyslover]

I won't be going to this event... wife already has plans for us on this weekend... not going to beef over it as I have already gone a bunch this summer

 

[Diesel Freak]

I will make it to this one. I am taking vacation wether work likes it or not. This will be the third dyno I have been on since the DD3's were put in... . first was 358, second was 382... so If things hold true... ... and I gain close to 20 HP each time I dyno



but realisticly, I hope to be at 340 HP... ... if the temp is where I think it will be



but then again I could spray Ice Water all over the intercooler before the run.

 

[Vaughn MacKenzie]

Rspinks & Lil' Dog it would be very if you guys made it down here! Hey it is not that long of a drive, really (6 hours max?) and you know I made that + a lot more to see you guys



Willyslover. . . sorry to hear you can't make it, but I guess I'm safe taking Roxy with me. Hey, when I was headed out from Waterous Sunday afternoon I couldn't find ya to wish you a good trip back home, I was hoping you wouldn't think I was rude or anything for just taking off . . .



Vaughn

 

[willyslover]

Vaughn. . I know ya better than that. . heck we'll see ya many more times as soon as we move

 

[Bob Beauchaine]

The timing on this one just might work out for me. I have never dyno'ed my old '93 so this might be a chance to meet everyone and do that. I'm going to start working on the details so I should know by next week.

Happy trails

Bob

 

[Bob Beauchaine]

It looks good for me to attend this year. I need directions or a street address. Also if anyone knows a good motel please let me know. I am thinking of making the run out of Portland on friday Sept. 6 - should be in Spokane by mid afternoon. I may bring my trailer but I know some good places for it if I do.

Thanks

Bob

 

[GMcLean]

sept 6 EH???

Sounds like it could be a fun time. Maybe Rich, Jason, and a few more of us should get together and have a RAM-voy of our own; head down your way with smoke-a-blazin out the pipes, and try to get through the "gates to hell" to join ya`ll for some beer swillin, and moose chawin... Maybe we`ll have to enter the beer a little earlier and get some BOMB`s on Richs` mobile before then. Still waiting for ya to come up here to get your steering fixed, Rich, and then maybe add some stuff. They are right, it IS an addiction once you start. . BOMBS AWAY!!!!!!



Garth

 

[rspinks]

Garth, sounds like a plan. Steering's not getting much better and I want to get up to RM House before end of August, been way too busy at work lately. I still need to install my gauges, waiting for FP gauge and isolator. I've heard of a device called a PE Comp that helps to break the gauges in by swinging the needles hard, I think one of these may be in order...



I think Big Bob's still on vacation, anybody else got any info like agenda, registration, location etc. for this event?

 

[GMcLean]

Yep, the comp will swing the guages hard, but be warned, your warrenty will be null-in-void afterwards due to tapping the pump wire. . I suppose you could still install the comp, but not tap the pump wire yet and it will be more like the EZ with 5 levels. . Mind you, the dark side is quite powerful and you will likely end up hookinig it up sooner than you think . If you do get the 275`s that you were thinking of, when you come up this way, I`ll give ya a hand on the install. . Where did you get the fuel pressure guage, and how much were they?? Still needing them myself. .

If your thinking about comin up, make sure it isn`t during the week of the12-18. . Goin on my honeymoon at that time so I wont be around. . Then huntin season startsOo. . Later... Garth
