I graduated from Oswego in 03 and haven't been back in town since. The family would love to see where dad went to school. If fuel prices allow I may be interested in attending.

Well, at least you stopped to say hi.

I ran into Jim at the Upstate Garage Owners Association Clambake in Syracuse last month. He was excited to get you guys back. He said he was going to add a bunch of tarping to the shop because of all the soot you guys made last time!

This event is right in my back yard, but there's an off-road benefit ride that I signed up for that weekend on Tug Hill.

How late are you guys normall there? I might be done by late afternoon. It would be cool to stop by and meet everyone.

Joe, with the number of people we expect, I'd say 4-5 pm at least. I bet Jim was excited$ :-laf

He didn't really seem too upset about the soot last time. He said several times that they were gonna have to clean the room, but he had a big grin when he said it. I think he didn't mean he had to clean the room.

It'd be nice to meet you too. I'll PM you my cell #. Then you can call and see if we're still there.

Hi guys. I'm back. Never really went any where and that was the problem. I would love to come to dyno day but I have to work. Maybe I can get there after.

 

[JoeBioDiesel]

I've never seen Jim's Dyno shop. Just visited his repair shop in Liverpool a bunch of times. I know he likes to keep things neat. He was probably dusting the soot out of there for a week. I know that I'd much rather hang tarps than clean soot off of everything. Kinda like painting in the shop... an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure...

Hi Shawn, welcome back from nowhere! Gimme a call so we can chat. Tell the wife and kids we said "hi"! :-laf



Joe, the dyno is in the back of a barn, machine shop in the front. The fan that exhausts the dyno room is 40,000 cfm. (pretty sure that's what he said. ) It blows it into the back storage area. I'd hate to get anything out of there now. The smoke was coming out of the 4 x 8 or so door full black! :-laf

 

[PToombs]

Dan! Bring the video camera! I'll have a good smoke show for ya.

:-laf :-laf

 

[DZink24]

You bet, Pete! You can call me the "official upstate bombers photographer/videographer"! I am going to go and look for a tripod somewhere, so i can do a neat job, and maybe put everyones runs on youtube or the like, so they can enjoy! and not having to turn their heads sideways!:-laf



How many trucks showing up will actually be hitting the rollers??

 

[PToombs]

Not sure, just from the dodge sites and our site, I'd guess at least 20, anyways.

I never did see the sideways video. I wanted to see my truck go!

 

[mrsnow]

[PToombs]

Andrew, 8:30 at the Valero, Rt 48 and Lamson rd, then on to the dyno at 9 am.

Dyno address, 105 Pinnacle Hill Rd. Fulton, ny.
