Mid-Tenn Chapter Roundtable

[Kimber]

The fish fry has been cancelled

Hate to hear that

Hollingsworth Oil in Springfield or the Citgo on Main in the middle of Nastyville.

What kind of price/gallon on the B-99?

 

[WadePatton]

Dunno what happed with TDR. Cards didn't go. Regular support not there-- Equals cancellation of event requiring lots of effort.



Where oh where is the BIO? and how much? I'll try it when I can find it.

 

[sniper351]

I'm back!!!

Hey guys, what all has been going on with you??? I have spent the last 15 minutes catching up on all the happenings on Mid Tenn TDR. What is all this talk about the Bio- Diesel? Is this stuff good for the diesel engines? I have read a thing or two about it in the past, but have never really paid attention to it. What gives??? It is good to be back in good ole Tennessee!!! We'll holler at ya all later on!!!

Glad you're back. A buddy of mine is on the verge of retirement, he's got 3 years active and over 20 reserve. They didn't promote him the last two times he was up for it. He just got a job with the State.



He has a 96 Club 4x2 5 speed. He's going to let me under the hood when he gets the gauges on---then he'll be calling Peter.



Was hotter than hell two weeks ago, now it's about right. Come on Bambi.



Gotta run.

The B99 works out to $2. 67 a gal but you have to go to Springfield to get it.

The B20 was $2. 89 a gal at Citgo but I think it has gone up. I saw D2 in the Boro for $3. 09 today. You guys closer to Springfield need to be bypassing the pump and go to the oil distributor. (Hollingsworth)

 

[Got Smoke?]

Regular Diesel his $2. 99 a gal at my usual station today! Oo. Oo. Oo. :-laf



Figures I filled up Monday @ 10PM for $3. 19 :{



101 miles(114 corrected) on it and only @ 7/8's of a tank.

 

[acook]

It is good to be back in good ole Tennessee!!!

Welcome back. Looking forward to meeting you in person.

 

[WadePatton]

Dyno anyone?

Who is ready to commit to running on a dyno in the next few weeks?



I like the first of December--that reduces deer hunting conflicts.



Choices: Delks at $160 per hour. Dunbar at Beans--outdoors if sunny, indoors if not--more trucks could run and cheaper.



Bean is looking into the Dunbar side of the deal. I talked to Delk's and they don't have smoke handling stuff, so they're charging accordingly.

 

[AndyMan]

I got a new truck that needs it, but no money to fund it.



Maybe better after x-mas.

 

[Cumminsman]

well, sold the 01 today. a guy named david miller from VA bought it. he should be hitting nashville at 930 or so. later

Cool congrats Nick. Can't wait to see the Mega Cab hauling 'ol CMEPULL next year. Mega Cab's are actually selling VERY well around the Nashville Metro area. I've spotted at least 6 this week between Gallatin & Nashville on my deliverys. My local Gallatin dealer has already sold one and has another on the lot.

 

[HeavyHauler]

I probably can't do a dyno anytime between November 28th - December 15th. And the only time I'll be back in Mid-Tenn before Thanksgiving is this coming weekend, and I won't have the truck up here then.



I could do it any day between December 15th and January 17th though.



What is Delks? It sounds like that could be cheaper than what Dunbar would probably charge if we got right on there and did our business with no clowning around. It seems like it would be good to get a rough estimate of the time it would take for everyone and how many people there would be.

Delks is a Ford Mustange Performance shop out in the STICKS of Lebanon out past Cedars of Lebanon. You wouldn't ever know its there until you've been there. Personally I won't be joining you if you plan to do anything @ Delks. Their pricing is outrageous, and you can't tell me it would cost that much to actually make some kinda piping for the smoke.



I would rather get on David Dunbar's dyno because David is just flat out AWSOME! He knows EXACTLY what he's doing dynoing Diesel's and he won't mind running your truck another time or two if something just isn't quite right.



Let me know when its going on @ Bean's. I'll bring the hot chocolate. :-laf

 

[Kimber]

This past weekend was a Jr Sportsman deer hunt. 9:00 Saturday morning my 10 year old boy took a 5 pointer. Then Sunday morning, barely outta bed, he gets this 8 pointer Oo. Oo.

 

[Dieselnutz]

AHHH, the joy's of fatherhood! :-laf Tell him good job!

 

[Piston Slapper]

Thats awesome, funny picture too!

 

[WadePatton]

Congrats on the bucks. One more and he's got a limit. I saw some big uns right here on the highway back in August. If they's smart I won't see 'em again. If they ain't smart I'll post the pics here.



"Delk's" is Brent and Heath Delk's preformance shop. They do 90% Mustangs, but happen to have a super nice dyno. We've done two "events" out there. Problems are: slow on and off, and no SOOT control--which caused problems even AFTER we left last time. SO they've gone UP on the soot machines.



Also, about 12 is the max # of trucks we/they can get across the machine--depending on how much trouble the soot gives them. The problem is the optical sensor for RPM--no RPM and no readings.



Dunbar can run 20 trucks no problem AND if Bean is involved we'll have a FORD/DODGE showdown. (hey Meacham)



I'll holler at him today. You can too if'n you've got time to kill. 615 563 7800.



Congrats on selling the 01 Nick. Glad you didn't buy a chubbie.

20 trucks is NOTHING for David & Mike. They can fly through 'em at a crazy pace!

 

[HeavyHauler]

Paul, was Ethan using iron sights? I don't see a scope on the rifle. Even more impressive! Tell him congrats!

Iron sights only. I bought that gun used so it's already got the Weaver mounting rail, but no scope. The 1st one he shot with no rest and it ran maybe 60' (downhill of course),he took rest on my shoulder with the 8 pointer and he dropped him in his tracks. Both were about a 50 yard shot.

In the 2nd pic... . the 5 point looks really small... . that's only the hide rolled up. He wanted to have it mounted, but after getting a price, he's getting horns-on-a-board. :-laf
