I was wondering how many of you guys were planning on coming up to the Morgans Corner Event with us this weekend? So far it is myself, Johnner (banshee) and Pete Slayden (2141pete). I think Daniel said he might go also.
I am planning on leaving out Saturday morning to get up there around noon to 1:00 P.M. when the dyno competition starts.

Daniel and I are coming up with 2 of his friends. We are out here in my shop putting a AFE blade runner intake manifold on is truck. I put one on my 03 about 3 weeks ago and love it. I think this intake is by far the nicest manifold on the market.

I'm trying to get daniel to dyno is truck since he has my II stage 2 CP3 and my FLUX 2s in his truck now. I'd like to see how his 06 does with all the new parts on it.

Its SAD:(:(:( my poor little 05 is bone stock now except for the 5" exhaust. I'm still trying to find out what is wrong with my truck. I took it in to the dealer, and they said that there was nothing wrong with it.

I'm looking foward to seeing you John on saturday. Its been a long time since we talked and I'll fill you in on whats been going on in my life.

Thanks for your reply buddy! It is great to hear you are planning on coming up to this event with us!;) It will be nice to see you again Cris.

Cris, do you guys want to meet us up there at that "Hess Station" in New Bern just across the river like we did last year and then "caravan" up to Morgans Corner?? If so, let me know and Pete and I can meet you there at say 11:00-11:15 A.M. if that sounds alright. If not, we will just meet you guys up there.

I think I'll do the Walmart sub thing again. Do you think 3 subs will be enough for the 8 or 10 of us. How many bags of chips do you want me to get?

Pete

Don't worry, I plan on feeding you also[laugh][laugh][laugh]

CRIS:

That sounds good buddy! I would think that three of those should be enough.
I will also bring some chips, so get one or two and I will do the same if that sounds alright to you. I tried to call you on your cell phone this morning but got no answer or voice mail Cris.

Did you want to meet up at that "Hess Gas Station" in New Bern like we did last year or not?? Just let me know. Thanks Cris.

Hey Nate, you planning on coming up to this event with us???

Going to dang sure try. Need to convince the girlfriend it is a fun time....she isnt much for trucks and such. But.....i might be able to strongarm this one. Busch Gardens is just up the road!!!

I do need to try and get the VB accumulator piston replaced and the kit Dave sent me in. If that doesnt fix the trans I will get Phil to look it over again and see if something is out of whack. She shifts really really hard from 1-2 on light throttle, and hunts 2-3 at mid throttle...even without the smarty on it.

John, I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to meet at the gas station in bridgeton if you want we'll be there around 11. The gas station on the right, correct? How many trucks are going to be in the convoy?

Last year we met at the station on the left, but I'll be in the truck with you so I'll do the pointing[laugh][laugh][laugh]

John

You know that I can't have my phone at work with me. I did see that you called 3 times. I'll give you a call.

Nate

I hope that you aren't letting a girl keep you from a DTR meeting[nonono][nonono][nonono]

I am headed out of here shortly. Going to meet Pete @ "Applebee's" in Jacksonville, N.C. @ 10:00 A.M. and then it's on to New Bern to meet Cris@ "Wal-Mart" for the subs and then on to the "Hess Station" on Hwy 17 to meet Dan. Hope it doesn't rain all day today.:( It is pretty cloudy here by my house. See you guys in a little while.............

Well guys, it looks like rain has spoiled our plans again!:(

I received a call from Cris earlier (just before I was getting ready to leave) saying it was raining pretty good in New Bern. Johnner was also hitting rain coming down from Raleigh. So, like the OBX Event, the Rockingham Event rain has messed this one up too. I am sure the grounds at Morgans Corner will be pretty muddy and wet too.

Anyway, hope everyone got called and my apologies about the rain. Cris, thanks for the call buddy!!

I was with John, it wasnt worth the fuel money and nothing but a muddy truck with a rainout ending up the only thing to show up. I really wish I could have made it out though.

Well CONGRATULATIONS,.....what kind of numbers did you put down Jess??

king d
06-01-2008, 08:18 PM
the numbers were awful and i refuse to repeat them.the guy had the dyno break on very very tight,when he hit the brake to load the truck it killed it.i could have 20 plus psi and it would knock it back to like 6-8 psi and it would cuase a downshift.there were several gasser trucks that ran and when he hit the load switch it they had to let off the go pedal to keep the trucks from cutting off....
