Norcal Dyno Day

[RonA]

Same here. Thanks to Rpm and BBD. Had a real good time. BBD sure likes the megaphone.

 

[BigBadDodge]

Okay no megaphone next time



I want to say thanks for all that came, your support is what makes these events possible, and a lot of people drove some great distences to make it to the event. We were able to dyno a good number of trucks but as most know Brad was having difficulties with the dyno machine, I believe we had eight people on the list that didn't get a chance to dyno, Mike (Kainers) with his ford who drove all the way from Klamath Falls OR, was one of them. Sorry about that guys wasn't much could be done to repair the machine. The dinner afterwards was sucsess as well we had 33 for dinner and some good crub was shovled down. I was lucky to be at the dinner after making that CHP motor cycle cop disapper in flume of black smoke, thank goodness he some were else to be

[RonA]

BBD.

Ron

 

[Beast2B]

Great time, lots of smoke, good grub. What more could you ask for?

Thanks BBD and RPM, can't wait til the next time!

 

[BPINE]

Had a great time Thanks to Brad and his crew from RPM not to mention the great BBD. Hope the dyno is fixed soon and it doesn't cost to much for the repairs. Congrats to Pete and Brad they have worked hard to have some fun with there trucks and it looks like it is paying off.

 

[rsaderlund]

ditto to the "Thanks to RPM and BBD" as this was my first dyno event I had a blast sorry I had leave so quick and not see the end... but when the daughter comes home from college and wants me to change the oil... I am a sucker. . Another thanks goes to Brad Ponci for the help so far and now all I have to do is get those 370's installed I scored while there... and wait till the next time. . good seeing all the faces to associate with the names here. . Keep smokin ya all :--)

 

[MegaRocks]

Another happy participant here. Thanks for the fun. It's great to talk shop with so many good people with good ideas and breathe good amounts of black smoke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Was fun to see what my stocker could do.



Good event, let's make it even bigger next year!

 

[DLBurns]

A big THANKS to Brad and his crew and BBD for a great day!! This was my first dyno and I had a great time. Glad to see a couple of my fellow RamRunners bringing home the "bling", Brad and Pete have some very nice trucks!!

Can't wait to do it all again.

 

[big jake 1]

BBD sure likes the megaphone.

BBD had a megaphone?????????



I thought those were lip extensions... ... .











Yo Scotty:



for an old wanna-be Rear Admiral, you did a great job, I had to leave early to make sure that security would let you back into the OLD FOLKS HOME after your weekend pass.



big jake



THE FORD GUY Oo. Oo. Oo.

 

[ASTAR]

Thanks to all involved, it was a blast!!!

BBD, and RPM you guys rock. The staff at RPM was so helpful (trying to find me some Meth last minute) and dinner was good fun.

Can't wait till next time!

 

[BigBadDodge]

(trying to find me some Meth last minute)

Dude, you should have asked me, I had a pint of pure meth on the back seat incase I was going to dyno, and I have a gallon at the house, 5 minutes away oh well.





BBD

 

[Jim Fulmer]

BBD, so your telling me you went through all this pain and didn't dyno?



Jim

 

[BigBadDodge]

Yup, I wasn't concerned in dynoing myself, just wanted to have the get together, RPM is 5 minutes from the house and Brad would let me dyno if I needed. I was more intrested in letting the folks who drove from long distences get on the rollers first. I hadn't done any additional mods since dynoing at Imler Diesel last month anyway.



BBD

 

[BTaintor]

Yeah it looked like everything was running smooth until the mishap. Unfortunately I was #39 on the list. I thought I could have been competitive, maybe not top 3 but definately up there. I'm going to jump on the rollers locally and I'll let Brad know just to see how I would have done.

 

[BPonci]

Thanks to all that worked hard for the event. Had a blast. It was really nice to see everybody and B. S. I had 5 gallons of pure meth in the back of the truck. I wish i would have known that someone needed some meth. Job well done Scott, Brad and crew. Thanks again... ... ... ... ... ... ... . Brad

 

[Dual EE]

BBD and the RPM staff did a fantasic job with the event. They gave away a lot of great stuff. It was nice to put some faces with names. See you all next year.

 

[Forrest]

Yo BBD ... do you have the truck specs?



Can you edit the list to show who had twins?

 

[RonA]

Aw come on Forrest, are you going to start rubbing it in . I know that you beat me and stomp. Don't know if there are any others. I never said mine was fast, just visually stunning. At least my wife was stunned when i told her how much I spent with the motor swap.

Ron

 

[ASTAR]

AW MAN!!! I was told to ask you if you had some cause you had already run Brad but I didn't know who ya were . I guess I should've asked a little more and I should've known that you'd probably have some too BBD.



Darn it. I was really bummed after I saw how much it gave you Brad, Impressive numbers for sure! Good job!

Next time I'll be more prepared and I'll have my Mach 4's in too!
