Mid-Tenn Chapter Roundtable

[WadePatton]

Bean did not get to pull. Had a stuck injector.

WTF? just one?! that might have been perfect for the track. hellfire Red did some pulling and racing with a dead injector.



But then maybe it's a problem on a CR. Not a problem on the P-pump.



sometimes less is more.

big thanks to bean for the transmission blanket



joe

 

[JMBryant]

congrats Joe, looks like you did pretty well. Kinda of glad I had some stuff come up and I couldnt make it to TS I would have been greatly dissapointed by the stuff I read.





Any local pulls where yall will be pulling anytime soon??

 

[WadePatton]

Congrats Joe of Dixon!



hey, that saves some letters.



Mooretown is June 6th. My back yard. Dunno who will pull at that one. I won it once many years ago. Drove my green one around the fields today. Gotta work on it. Optima's rock (so far).



Mooretown is 6 miles south of Woodbury toward Manchester. It's a MTPA thing, I don't know the rules. Bean should. I like the track as it's not a tacky one. Mebbe I can get a puller together someday.



wp

 

[LKuilder]

Any more info on the deal at Bean's next weekend? Just curious.

 

[WadePatton]

I put a link up to their site. The info was short. You might call 'em.



the dyno is in house. the concrete is there for tire truing. there's plenty of room for camping. be careful on the road. is what i have to say.

 

[WadePatton]

So I talked to Bean today.

Injector was hung open, flooding the cylinder.

AND THE SHOW IS ON! Beans Diesel Performance

details may be posted at his site now, but here is what I gathered today:

$6,000 in prizes and giveaways.

Burnout contest

Dyno contest with multiple categories-plus an award for low power.

Shallow mud pit for funnin'.

and

Bikini girls for photos. 11 to 1. Oo.

And I think I'll make it. No it's not the girls.

 

[acook]

I missed the last one. Will try to make it this time.

 

[WadePatton]

burn out tires. uh huh.



muddin tires. check.



optimization of systems for dyno. yessir.



shined up truck and video equipment for kodak moments with scantily clad womerns.



that's the checklist for Bean's open house. I'll be out there after I do some mountain biking. I'd skip the mountain biking, but I'm the ride leader so I have to go do the thang. I'll be there by one or so.



...



low power award--I have a buddy contemplating putting a real dead ringer for last place on the dyno. watch out for blue smoke...



unless a 1978 rabbit diesel shows up. :-laf

 

[acook]

Any updates, pics, vids?

 

[Twisted Shifter]

Hey guys, wanted to say hello, moved up from FL..... If I can be of any help shoot me a an email or give me a call.

 

[BigPapa]

What's up fellas.



I got to go by and meet Chris, aka Twisted Shifter, this evening. He's just moved up to Ridgetop from South Florida and I suggested he post here and let everybody know he's in the area. He's the Eastern coordinator for the NHRDA and has a nice '94 2WD he's building for racing and an '03 daily driver.



Really nice guy! Welcome Chris!



Headed to the Dickson Spring Fling tomorrow night to see the pull.



Scott

 

[Twisted Shifter]

Hey guys, I need to look at when I will be home (hahahah) and try to plan some type of get together. It can be at the race track, not at the track... . I am open to suggestions. Since I am the new kid in town, you guys show me whats cool to do. I know I am home 4th July weekend.

 

[JMBryant]

welcome to the area Chris! We need to have a get together some time soon! Maybe some new members to the Mid Tenn area will help us get something going! Just got back from Huntsville yesterday from the America Historical Truck Society National Convention . They had some pretty neat ole rides down there. Heres a couple

Just got back from Huntsville yesterday from the America Historical Truck Society National Convention . They had some pretty neat ole rides down there. Heres a couple

I know something like that had taken place, I was driving back from our event in LA and I seen a TON of trucks with old semi and fire trucks on the back.....



I am looking forward to building the sport around the middle TN area.



Chris

 

[WadePatton]

Welcome Chris, maybe what we need here is some new blood. Things have slowed down quite a bit.



Anybody go to the 6 June pull in my back yard? Mooretown that is. I was out of town. Been out in Dallas for two weeks building a bicycle frame. 12. 5 hours drive right after a 3 hour bike ride. I'm still beat.



AND I'm in here digging around for answers on the melty headlight switches that DC provided us with. Just put a new (junkyard) switch on this one and the lights were better for a bit, but the switch got hot around Memphis last night and I was worried all the way back... is the geno's britebox a good answer?



I melted the pigtail off the other truck and put in a new one (fun fun) and added a relay system from jeg's, but lost the highbeams.



The 24-valve switch has heatsinks, but doesn't change the poor design.



I'll search.



and 20. 5 mpg on the first tank going west. haven't checked the total trip. 800 miles each way and some chitty driving while there.



wp

 

[WadePatton]

HAY JOE UNDERWOOD!



Didja get those valves popping again?



Joe put on one HELL of a tire smoking show at Bean's not long after he put 650 down on the dyno.



then it got a little messy.



Bean's gathering was great as usual. I should write it up for the mag. remind me.

 

[Chief USA]

Figured I would join this thread to find out when and where you guys meet.

 

[HeavyHauler]

Hey, guys! Remember me? I'm back and making my first post in over 2 years! Oo.

How much of the old crew is still left? Andy, Paul, Jay, Mark, Gap, Joe, Scott, Meacham? I know Wade is still kicking about.

I finally started driving my truck again, so I thought I would get on here and see if people were still "bombing" these things.

Wade, I came through Woodbury really early on Sunday morning on my way to McMinnville to pick up a new-to-me ATV. I looked for your old shop but didn't see it. Maybe I forgot where it was?

Someone catch me up on what's been happening the last few years. Ha! Is Mark still married? :-{} :-laf

-Hans

 

[Chief USA]

Hey Hans,



Looks like we are almost neighbors. I am over south of Linden. I have been a long time out of this thread too. Does not appear to be many TDR folks around this area.
