Nice rig Chip ! Welcome to the group.:cool:

Welcome Chip,, if you are interested we are having a dyno / GTG this weekend in Edmonton, and you are more than welcome to join us

Kevin

Welcome to DTR! GREAT lookin' truck!:cool:

Welcome to the Alberta Chapter!

Looks like you have been playing with that truck a bit already. Again, we are having a little shin-dig in E town on Saturday. Look up the dyno thread for details on the event location and there is a BOMBVoy on the way up that day from Cowtown.

Cheers!

Yep nice truck and welcome

Welcome and nice truck... Sadly I can't make the Edm Dyno get together but perhaps a casual Calgary get together this spring would be possible?...

...Joe

I'm sure we could all meet at a Tim's somewhere.:cool:

Sweet truck! Welcome!

Nice Rig!........An informal calgary GTG would be a-ok with me..........

thanks for the comments on the rig. As much as i would like to to the dyno day i cant this weekend installing my gauges.
i like the tims idea, im addicted.
will there be any more events any time soon? last one i was at was bd aniversier(sp) in olds.

You just never know when a GTG is gonna happen, of course wouldn't take much to throw a meet time and place and see what happens.

I'de defenitly be up for a GTG in the area

Ya id be down for a GTG this week some time if anyone is interested one night. I didnt make it to the dyno day as imstill in whitecourt and i dont do big events(august blackout). We can all go for a coffee and Talk diesel if anhyone wants to.

Hey i;m from calgary how do i join the alberta chapter

do we have to join, or are we just members already if we live here?

Very nice looking truck, welcome aboard. We are in the works on having a summer GTG in Red Deer. Our good friends opened up a shop in the Deer and really want to have the diesel crowd too. They are going to build some ramps to keep the trucks level instead of such a harsh angle. It's a new Mustang dyno and the highest numbers they have seen is 289hp. Ohhh, is that dyno going to get some major abuse soon!!![laugh][laugh][laugh] Does this sound good guys??

Whos shop is that????

I'm always up for a road trip, however short or long it may be, count me in

no you dont have to join. If your from here, your in. Also who has the dyno in red deer??

Sounds like a plan. I'm heading off on Thursday night, so if its before then, I'll be up for it.

cuminpwrjr, right now there is no official membership, but our fearless leader is working on getting all the paper work done. I'm sure he will fill us in when he gets a chance.

Vex Tuning . It's a new shop owned by Myron Senko.

I would also like to attend a GTG. I am free until the ground thaws, which may be soon with all the great temperatures we have been getting.

OK let the carnage ensue...........[guitar]



I'll make time. after we move in 10 days I'm pretty clear sailing the rest of the year. I got 2 weeks off in July and 2 weeks off in Aug............DPS dyno day is in June I think. we should make a strong high octane Dodge showing there. then maybe wreck reddeer in july or aug. If this head hold severything down........Im'a gonna beat it good this summer. Got some TOYO Proxes ST coming too [coffee]

Sounds good. Jason, I'll talk to the guys at Vex soon and let ya know what/when they think. I'll run my new truck to see if they have everything to make it work. Road bans go on tomorrow so things should start to slow down and the spring fever will appear. Should be lots of guys wanting to dyno soon...

Kevin

Why's that Kevin???

Hey Jamie...how about some pics of your new truck. I hate to see that you sold the 01. I liked reading up on it since our trucks are alike. Sold her for a good penny...good job! Still have mine and still on the fence of weather or not I want to sell it. I don't drive it much since I am never home.......15,000km's in three years!!

You bet...I'm in for a summer dyno in Red Deer....Will be really close for lil'dog.He will have no excuses this time..[laugh]

I hate to see it go but I'm also glad at the same time. I'll take some pictures as soon as I get the 20" rims and tires. Time to work on a new money pit!![laugh][laugh][laugh]

Ouch Dave... Hey I made it! Just a little late.[laugh]

I would like to take a rip on the ol Mustang. Just to warm it up for them..LOL.. Then the bigger power dogs can have their way with it. Keep me up to speed Jamie, this could be a good summer time event. And as we were talking, just an un-sponsored, all the DTR bretheren, hoods up type of meet. No prizes, no fluff, no pressure. Just the ol boys club kind-a feel... I think everyone can learn alot if there aren't dyno spikers trying to take home the crown.

Just joking lil dog...We all know you had alot on your plate in the last year...[roll]

Now that sounds like a good time to me!! Jason, I'll keep you posted..

Why's that Kevin???

Jamie, I had problems with traction at 650 hp, let alone 1050 or more,, probably by summer I might be 1200

Kevin

Traction seems to be the issue on the dyno and the track.. To me the Mustang has the holding power, just the rollers are slippy. I noticed the roller on the Dynojet was knurled. They should try that on the Mustang rollers, or have the rubber type that the one PDR has.

Can you fill us in with more info on that?

Nope, don't wanna go there....[redface]
