Fall Brawl 2004... "Your Never Beaten Till You Admit It!". .



When-Saturday & Sunday October 9th and 10th...

Where-Kauffman Motorsports

-901 Range End Road

-Dillsburg,PA 17019 717-502-8880

Cost-$60 for 3 pulls with HP/TQ readings



Its a 2 Day dyno rip and cookout like we have done in the past. I have began to make the calls to our loyal sponsors and will begin posting them as they arrive to us. The owners who dyno are eligible for the sponsor gifts and we will do something a bit different this year as to eliminate some confusion. We will divide what we receive and draw on both days for the products,that way all can be in attendance and it will make my job alot easier by not having to track you down after the show. You may roll the jet both days and will entered for each rip of the "Humbler" as you have before. Trophies will be given to the winner in each class along with a plaque for Highest TQ. A owner may win in more than one category(like highest #2 and highest open HP),but,to do that he must have competed(dynoed)twice in 2 different categories. Classes are as follows... ... .



Stock... .

This class is limited as in the years past to the following mods,air intakes and aftermarket exhausts. NOTHING ELSE!. I am going to try and figure a way to make all the years competitive with each other as the newer common rail injection trucks have way more HP than the older rides. Those caught with other unapproved mods in this class will forfeit any chance of winning anything. Please be honest owners,this is a fun show and I'd like to keep it that way.



#2 Only.....

This is EXACTLY as it means,Highest HP on diesel only. No Nitrous,Propane,Meth injection,Misters and no fuel other than diesel. We will check at random the trucks rolling in this class for illegal equipment,so lets be honest guys and gals. Twins,aftermarket chargers fueling boxes and injectors are legal in this class. A owner who is drug equipped may DISCONNECT and/or REMOVE ALL Drugs to compete in this class.



Run What Ya Brung...

This is the "Don't Bring A Knife To A Gunfight Class".

Any fuel,charger configuration any amount of drugs can be used here. The only rule here is the HOOD MUST close and latch tightly. This is for safety reasons as we have seen the aftermath of a head-gasket explosion with the hood open.



Couple of things also here to remind everyone...

-If you use or work in the shop to do more mods we ask kindly that you dyno either day. Ernie gives us the run of the shop and all his tools and all he asks if those who do work dyno and I support that idea.

-Also,ALL HOODS WILL BE CLOSED during the dyno runs for safety reasons and the only personnel other than the Kauffman crew and I that is allowed is the trucks owner,again safety here folks.

-We ask that you don't stand directly behind the dyno door while a roll is in progress as any flying object will hurt and possibly injure you.



The cookout is going to be a covered dish as we have done at all our shows and it works well. If everyone brings something there will be plenty of grub to go around. I will need a chef or two for that day to wheel the grill or grills. I have gotten us a larger grill(cooking surface is 3ft x 5ft) to cook on and may rent the second one if needed. Please post what your interested in bringing along.



I will update as we go along and draw nearer to the show. Any questions feel free to ask here or PM them to me... ... ..... Andy



Here is a copy of a thread in the Northeast events section... ... . It can be viewed at: https://www.turbodieselregister.com/forums/showthread.php?t=104754 Eveyone come on out and have a great time.

Here are the two closest campgrounds for those who wish to use them... .



http://roundtopcamp.com/ -We have used this campground once before a few years ago and those who stayed there enjoyed themselves and liked the joint.



http://www.drummerboycamping.com/ -I personally do not know much about this place,but,the Ford Contigent who roll with us have used this campground as their meet earlier this year. I heard no complaints about and its located a little north of Round Top Campground.



Both of these campgrounds are within 15 minutes of Kauffman's and easily accessable from US RTE 15. There will be dry camping permitted on the Kauffman grounds as long as it doesn't swamp us out like last year on Saturday(Somehow I think Sebek is still trying to figure out how to get the mud off his truck from that day,LOL).



Updates for the show as I have them to this point.....

I have recieved confirmation from 2 vendors who will be on hand,Massdiesel and Double S Diesel. Double S will do a silent auction that weekend to benefit MS,something Tina has been struggling with for some time now,and I feel this is a great idea. Wannadiesel,from the DTR,will be on hand to eliminate those nasty KDP worries for owners who want it done. Dave's deal is about as slick as they come and he does nice work. He was with us at the Exton,PA meet earlier in the year and while watching him he made the job look easy. Dave will take no money for the tab work and asks only that the owners make a donation to the MS that day(plus he wants to be fed and kept watered,wonder if he is related somehow to our resident dyno wheelman Dave because he sounded like him when he told me that). All money collected for MS will be given to Tina to show our support to a organization who has helped her a HUGE amount.



I have others contacted and am awaiting their return calls. One thing I do not understand is the lack of support from the Ford specfic vendors. Its been that way since we started this show a few years ago and it still has me baffled. Doug is doing some more motel research and I will make a few stops and check also. As more info become available I will add it to the posts... ... . Andy
 
Here is the newest list of vendors who will be on hand and are supporting the show. I am still awaiting call backs from others and am working to get a motel deal setup for those who desire that.

Oasis-3 and his car hauling buddy Randy are helping again and I thank them very much.

Will Randy show up with a set of Dr. Stackmeister stacks on his newest ride,time will tell.



I will add more as I get answers from the calls still unanswered... ... ..... Andy
 
Well here is a update all will want read.....



After reading numerous emails(this year and in years past) and giving deep consideration to all the suggestions we will change the current classes of competition to try and make the show better for all who show. This is something we wish to try to help level the competition for all the brands and their owners. So without further delay,here they are and how they will be run the day of the show.



STOCK- This class is limited as in the years past to the following mods,air intakes and aftermarket exhausts. NOTHING ELSE!. I am going to try and figure a way to make all the years competitive with each other as the newer common rail injection trucks have way more HP than the older rides. Those caught with other unapproved mods in this class will forfeit any chance of winning anything. Please be honest owners,this is a fun show and I'd like to keep it that way.



MODIFIED-This class is limited to a SINGLE turbo with NO PUMP CONVERSIONS(example:A 24 Valve single turbo truck with a P-Pump installed)and on #2 ONLY. The use of over the counter fuel additives is permitted but NO DRUGS(this includes meth injection and water misters). Aftermarket chargers,fueling boxes,injectors and pusher pumps are all legal. Owners who run single chargers and use drugs may compete as long as their bottle has been disconnected or removed,these owners will be asked to show they did this when they enter the dyno room.



COMPETITION-This class will allow any fuel pump combination(example:p-Pump conversions),any charger(twins included) or supercharger and run on #2 alone. Over the counter fuel additves permitted but NO DRUGS(this includes meth injection and water misters). Any injector,fueling box,aftermarket turbos(twins permitted) and pusher pumps are ok. Owners who have drugs may compete but must disconnect their bottles or tanks and will be asked to show this when they enter the dyno room.



UMLIMITED-Run What Ya Brung... This is the "Don't Bring A Knife To A Gunfight Class".

Any fuel,charger configuration any amount of drugs can be used here. The only rule here is the HOOD MUST close and latch tightly. This is for safety reasons as we have seen the aftermath of a head-gasket explosion with the hood open.



One thing I will continue to stress is honesty. Any owner who is caught not being honest will have their respective runs disallowed and forefit any prize/trophy chances. Remember gang,this is a fun show even though we have some level of competition and I'd like to keep it that way. The easiest way for us to do that is being honest with whats is done to your respective rides.



I am hoping this will give the owners who do not feel they can compete with the more modified trucks a chance to compete... ... ... ... . Andy
 
Updates... .

First I'd like to welcome "Michigan Performance Diesel" to our show and thank Rob for contributing. Also we will have a set of portable platform scales to weigh trucks for owners if they wish(total weight,front to rear bias and all four corners) . TDR Member Lnwing is bringing them and will man them Saturday and only has asked for a donation to me made to MS for his help.



The next two vendors who have stepped for the show are Advanced Diesel Technology and South Bend Clutch. A Thank You goes out to both Doug and Peter from our chapter for the help. So here is the updated list of sponsors as they stand now for our show... ... ... ... . Andy
