Sounds like a good time. Will I have to park my 2wd out on the road and walk in?

 

[BigDan]

Well unless something crazy comes up and I get a job, ill be there to compare it to the dyno used at Poncis(superflow)

 

[MPassmore]

Hi guys...



Dan, post in the wrong thread? No dynos here...



As for the 2wd amongst us, you will have no problems coming in. We have nice gravel road coming in.

Hey guys/gals I just wanted to let you all know about an event/fundraiser that will be taking place Saturday Dec 2nd in the Sacramento area. Proceeds for the event will go to a local sherriff that was killed in the line of duty. Here are some of the details on the tragic death:

************************************************** *******************



Deputy Jeffrey Mitchell

Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department



End of Watch: October 27, 2006









At 3:27 a. m. this morning (Friday, 10/27/06), a Sacramento Sheriff's Deputy assigned to the South Bureau conducted a vehicle stop at Meiss and Dillard Roads on a white Chevrolet van with one occupant.



Approximately seven minutes later, the Sheriff's Communications Center conducted a welfare check on the officer, without a response units responded to his location.



The initial responding unit arrived at the location approximately 20 minutes later and found the Deputy with a gunshot wound to his head. At that point, officers requested emergency medical aid for the Deputy and initiated a large perimeter to begin conducting a search of the area. The Deputy was transported to the UC Davis Medical Center, where he was pronounced deceased at 4:45 a. m. as a result of his injuries.



Currently, an ongoing extensive search of the surrounding area and the southern part of Sacramento County is being conducted by multiple agencies including the California Highway Patrol, Sacramento Police, Elk Grove Police, Folsom Police, Rancho Cordova Police, Amador County Sheriff's Office and numerous other law enforcement agencies.



Anyone with information regarding the van, which may have suffered damage while fleeing the scene or the homicide of this Sheriff's Deputy, please contact the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department at (800)471-1700 or (916)874-6500 or via the Sacramento County Sheriff's website at www.sacsheriff.com .



Deputy Jeffrey Mitchell, 38, is a 9-year veteran of the Sacramento Sheriff's Department and has been assigned to Patrol Services since 2002. He is survived by his wife and young children.





For those of you who may not have caught our address, Deputy Mitchell was killed while patroling our street approximately 4 miles from our front gate. He was a good man and a good deputy. We know most of the deputies around here personally and he was no exception. At any rate, I hope that you all will get into the spirit of things and pick up a t-shirt or get a raffle ticket! 100% of the proceeds will be deposited into the family's account at the bank I bank at.



Also, looks like we may get some local media coverage so shine those trucks! i would love to show those in attendance outside of the the Dodge Diesel world what it is all about and perhaps we have some tugg-o-war or something? I am open to ideas as the the more folks we get to participate, the more we raise for Deputy Mitchell's family.



I am open to any and all ideas from you guys!

That is very cool what is going on and it's a great idea!! Not sure if I will make it but I'll take two xxl T-shirts if that happens. Jeff

 

[Diesel Nut]

We will be there and I posted a thread on Tow Rig.com as well. I can't believe this happened and I really feel for the family. Darned shame.

 

[MPassmore]

Hi again fellas -



Thanks for the cross posts and doing my job of promoting this. Everyone is welcome and it is shaping up to be quite an event. As it stands now, we will have several 'diesel demonstrations' (hookin' and perhaps a short dirt drag course) for the 'civilians' out there :-laf Also, I think several of my neighbors may bring over their big diesel toys just for the kiddos to clamor all over.



We have a band that has stepped up to play and some vendors are chipping in with donations for our raffle. I am working on the shirts and there will be plenty to go around - maybe not enough but I am working on that!



Please come on out, bring your friends, etc... It is for a great cause and Deputy Mitchell's wife deserves to know that the community cares for her and mourns with her.



finally, I am looking into making this an annual event to keep the awareness and continue to support a deputy's family who made the ultimate sacrafice while patroling my community. How cool would it be to be able to send his kiddo to the school of his choice down the line? also, this is a cool way to 'educate' the gasser world out there!



Feel free to contact me with any ideas, etc you may have for this!

 

[BigDan]

Yeah I got this confused with the Orangevale diesel thing. I', definetly comming. I heard its going to be a blast. I heard your going to have a track and bud bogs. Should I bring my kawi Paririe 700 4x4 or would it be pointless because its not a track MX type quad. It does git it for a 4x4 though.

 

[TomGolden]

Great event, good times. Had a blast and look forward to doing it again! Thanks for a great way to spend a saturday!

 

[rockjeep73]

Yes indeed it was a very fun event. Thanks to Passmore for putin it on. And yes the mud had to have been mixed with glue, the pressure washer didn't really do much , Oh well it was well worth it.
