Torque This; Sounds Great. Are we convoying up there? If there is a convoy when and were is it forming? A good place to me would be the I-84 E rest area in Cheshire, however anywhere would do. Oo. See ya later, Moose
 
i might make it again. i'd love to run, but with my transmission flaring or locking it up and slipping the hell out of the clutch(es), i don't think i will. maybe just have more time to look at the show rigs n stuff... i dunno. will there be many tdr members there? seems like there's been less interest in the "club" in the last year or so... .

i dunno, there wasn't hardly anybody i really knew at the last dyno event that usually makes it most/all of the events. haven't heard from people like formula, barely much from batman or heyboss, holeshot's moved away, b soldie was (did) sell(ing) his truck, stg2500 sold his truck, etc. it's great to see all of the other members, it just seems like the people i've known for a couple years or so haven't been hanging around the TDR :confused:
 
Yeah, it's tough for ya up there. We meet down here almost every Friday night and have a blast! Guess it just depends on where ya live!

yeah, true, i'm in the dead-zone in terms of TDR members (i see like 1 a year).

maybe i should move to connecticut. . Oo.



May be we should move to Maine... . :)



The Moose Cub and I are going up on that Sunday, and if anyone wants to convoy, then I am all for it. Just tell me were, and I'll be there, or meet up on the way. As far as I can tell, the I-84 E rest area in Cheshire, would be a good place to meet up, Moose.

Gents, Gents. I still around and lurking here once a while. How's things up North and CT?

May be if I'm not doing anything that day I'll pop up, who knows. It will be nice to see old faces and some new too, of course.



Hang tight and may be see you all sometime.

;)
 
Are you guys going to park is a specific area at the track? I would like to meet up with some local TDR members. Anyone from MA going?

Where are you from in Mass?



I am planning on making the trip to check out some diesel drags. I will not be running my truck. To scared of hurting the stock transmission.



Hoping for good weather on Sunday.

I bet Sean (Formula) is in the garage doing some welding.

George (Batman) = lurking

Fred (HEYBOSS) = lurking, been really busy with the biz

Brian (BSoldie) = sold his truck to Timmy Helms (TopFuel6) - and now runs low 11's and high 10's in the 1/4 mile...



I haven't been in the New England area since the beginning of summer... closest has been NYC and TMTT's still upset that I couldn't get in touch sooner than I did.

I am in Lynnfield about 20 miles north of Boston, takes about an hour for me to get to NEDW.
 
Moose and his oldest boy are going out of Ct, leaving around 7 to 8 AM out of the Waterbury area. If any of the CT boys wants to from up, I can stop and meet up anywhere along I-84 and points up north. Ct and Mass guys, PM if you want to trade Cell Phone numbers. "Hey Moosse we are hanging by the ______" Hope to see some one I know there. Moose.
