Hey mopar, link no worky for me? :(

Hear try this http://www.bdracing.net/index2.asp

anyone else planning on going?

anyone else planning on going?

Maybe should start a thread in 3rd gen. high perf.?? I just happen to stumble across this area when I found 'heads up" thread. I've been going through this whole forum reading on what's being done on these trucks, soaking the brain on info. anyway posting the hp area might attrack more (??).

sounds good Ill do that. Thanks!

Looks like I'll make this one (I just voted). Is there a minimum number of trucks we need to do this?

Between the 3 diesel sites this is posted in we're looking at about 15 trucks already.

Ya we have 15+ trucks sofar.

Which other forums is it posted at?
Will there be a variety of makes there?

Its posted on Dieselbombers & cummins forum. Its going to be (im guessing) mostly dodges but should be some fords and maby a few GMs

Alrighty, I think I am giong to make this one. I have the whole weekend off. Well see if I can feed the beast enough to get there. ($$$$$ :( )

[director] Mopar, PM sent!

It would be great to have our chapter president there. I don't know what you're payin' for fuel but there's a station that has diesel at $2.95 a gallon right now not to far from the event so you can fill up when you get here. Maybe it'll keep coming down???

It's a 76 at the corner of Topanga and Burbank for anyone else in the area.

Sounds good thanks for the heads up on the fuel price.

Hey mpracehemi you still planning on bringing your BBQ? If so please let me know and ill pitch in a few packs of hot dogs & buns

What if I couldn't bring my diesel could I bring a gasser?

I almost forgot:


1991 1/2 Power Ram 250 ( W-250) S-Cab :cool:





Hey 89, gas should be fine if you dont mind the snickers and jabs!! [dummy]

JK!! ;) Mopar may have more insight, I am sure it fine. The old girl wont make it?

Hey mpracehemi you still planning on bringing your BBQ? If so please let me know and ill pitch in a few packs of hot dogs & buns

Yeah, I'll bring it. It's new, haven't used it yet, good way to break it in. Any one want to bring chicken?? We could have a feast going on!!

Should I bring my trailer incase of someone having problems?? I do have a winch on it.

May not be able pay the 500 dollar registration fees :(

This is pretty close to me, I think I can show up but no dyno, $$$ is tight right now, I just picked up a travel trailer that I had to drop $600 for registration that was never paid by the previous owner but I was told it was. As for diesel prices, $2.89 at Chevron, Sierra Hwy and San Fernando Rd right off hwy 14 up here in Santa Clarita.

POT LUCK as it were? ;)

I have been doing some reasearch and cant find the 500$ fee somebody was talking about earlier?

May not be able pay the 500 dollar registration fees :(

I assume he was talking about back registration fees at the DMV.

Being that is just over the hill from me, should be easy for me to make it.
All depends on how far the interior remodel has progressed.
Hopefully, it will be done.

Looks like I'll be out on this. I'll be going over the road, as in 18 wheeler, the week of and the week after Thanksgiving. Sorry!

Is the 29th still ok with everyone? It still is a possibility to move it to the week befor or the week after if need be. Nov 22nd or Dec 6th

I like the 29th but the 6th would be good gives me another paycheck to get my dodge ready

I'm flexible, majority rules.

I'm flexible also.

sofar it looks like its going to stay the 29th with 25+ trucks as of now

Wow. 25+ trucks. How late is the dyno going to be open??

I may try to make this happen. Been dieing to get on a dyno.

Wow. 25+ trucks. How late is the dyno going to be open??It'll be open and running all day. The dyno is first come first serve so ill be there early.

I would really like to be there, but I will be spending the Thanksgiving week in Phoenix, probably driving back on Saturday, bummer. I have had a big loss of power over time and would like to talk and find a good mechanic. Have a good run and Thanksgiving.

It's a 76 at the corner of Topanga and Burbank for anyone else in the area.

We're at $2.53 a gallon at my last fill up.

Im crossing my fingers, Im paycheck to paycheck right now, I am hoping I can scrape enough together to at least go let alone run the dyno! :(

well good luck man I hope things work out so you can make it.

Hey if you can make it as far as Palmdale, you can DRAFT behind me on the way there and back. This should make it really cheap to get there and back!!![laugh][laugh] JK I know what you mean about $$. I am going to at least watch. If I can talk him in to letting me run once for a little less $$ maybe I will dyno too. We will see. Guess I am being the cheap one here. :o

I can bring my trailer if anyone thinks it's a good idea. If anyone of us breaks something, I can haul ya home.

Yes.....no.........??

I can bring my trailer if anyone thinks it's a good idea. If anyone of us breaks something, I can haul ya home.

Yes.....no.........??You still bringing your grill? I know I am planning on bringing some food for it & I think a few other people are also. So just wondering. TIA

Yeah, the grill is coming. Am I the only one bringing one??

Yeah, the grill is coming. Am I the only one bringing one??As far as I know yes. But I am also willing to help out with some of the grilling when ever you want a break or whatever.

[verymad][verymad] [yuk][yuk] :(:(


I am very very disappointed to report I will not be able to attend our 1st Dyno Day. I have just learned that the woman of the house has run one of our accounts into the negative by by about $350. Needless to say I don't think this thanksgiving will be for any excess, although I still have plenty to be thankful for. And on top of this I noticed this morning that one of my rear tires is cracked and the tread is starting to separate and the belts are visible!! [yuk] Thats what you get for used tires I guess.

I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Mopar Man. You have done a great thing organizing this event and I hope it is very memorable and fun for all those who attend. Some Chapter President I turned out to be right?

I hope that many of you will bring your handi cams and digitals and flood this forum with photos and movies. I am praying that my situation will improve, and that I can attend as well as organize more of these. Times are getting tougher for everyone and recreation is the first thing to suffer for sure. But I still want to keep our Little So-cal DTR group going and growing.

I am continuing work on the membership data base with all of the apps. I have received thus far, and I hope to start having a monthly news letter or something soon.

Until the next one I guess. Have fun all and be safe!! Take pictures/movies so bums like me can still enjoy the fun!!

Again I truly apologize, I thought for sure we had enough money but this little secret killed me.

Keep thinking of events and throwing them out here, plan something your self or present an idea this chapter is so vast it can be hard to get every body in one place and one time. even local events count with 2 or three trucks, post pics build relationships and have fun!!

I look forward to news on the turn out,

[director] Don't forget to pitch DTR to all those who aren't on here!! I am sure cummins forum is cool but were better!! ;)

Sorry to hear on your situation. So far (on my end), my ol and a friend is going. I can get them to tape/pics. and see how well they can do it.

We only live once, things that we pass on now might not be there tomorrow or in the future.......... Maybe you could come and be there, I'm sure that some of us can bring some extra food.......I'm sure that if you come, you won't regret it.

How many are bringing their better halfs, or worst halfs if you want to call them that (HAha)??? This could be a good get together for us all........

Have a good T-day!!!!

As far as I know yes. But I am also willing to help out with some of the grilling when ever you want a break or whatever.

I didn't know I had to cook/grill also..I was bringing the grill for all of us to use.

You think I'm gonna be the cook.......think again buddy [laugh] LOL Seriously, I can do some grilling but those of us that brings food to grill, can do their own, if some haven't used a grill before it'll be something else they can learn that day... If it comes to it, I guess I can do the cookin'. I'm rusty, haven't done it in awhile so no one can complain to the cook. LOL

I'm gonna borrow my in-laws barbeque so we'll at least have two.

Well DieselCarpenter, like I said before, if you can get you sorry butt as far as Palmdale from Ridgecrest, I can haul it down there with me in my truck. I may not be the best company, buy it won't cost you nearly as much. They we can put you to work on the grill cause no one else seems to want the job. We could even put out a tip jar, and make back some of the fuel money it will take to get you to Palmdale. So no excuses. [dummy]I will even promise to make one of your Ridgecrest meetings one of these days if you'll let me know when it is happening. See there's always a solution.[coffee][coffee]

There is and there isnt a soloution. Thank you for your offer very much. UNfortunatley I am two weeks out from any money and I only have enough fuel to last a week tops. Probably be walking to work. And I mean literaly no money for anything, got a few coins out of the couch but I am having to dip in to the food storage for this one.

Lesson is watch your money like a hawk!!

I would have gladly grilled for every body but its just not in the cards. Have fun everyone and post lots of pictures!

Again thanks for the offer diesellady, I am praying times get better soon!!

D-C out! :(

Oh well,,,, at least we tried!!! Sorry to hear about the $$ situation. May not be too far from the same place myself if fuel prices go back up and folks park their trucks. But for now, I prefer to not think about that. Will post lots of pics. If I can figure out how to get them all on the forum. [laugh][laugh][laugh]

I'm sick and as you'll notice I'm not there with the barbques. SORRY, I don't have any way to contact except through here.

Sorry to hear your not feeling well. Here is a little photo show so you can see what you missed.
Was fun and relaxed even though it wasn't a huge turnout, it was pretty good for our first dyno event.

Hi John. Well moparman was in charge and he was going to let everyone post their own numbers, so I don't have them all. I ran 372 after messing around for about 40 minutes trying to figure out where to hook up the RPM pickup on my new 6.7. We finally gave up cause once we found where to hook up, we put it in drive and the tach totally changed again. By that time, I had idled in drive long enough to get my engine temp up high enough to set an alert on my juice with attitude. Not a good way to start a dyno run.
There was another 6.7 with almost the identical set up that ran a 375 hp. He beat me by 3 hp,,,,, but was running a hot juice and didn't get to hot before he ran. NO FAIR!!!![laugh][laugh] One guy with twins ran around 650 and another with veggie fuel and water meth etc etc. pulled out a 750 something. He even thought that was pretty high tho. :o:o
All in all the guys at B and D racing did a great job even though they usually dyno Mustangs. They were great sports and repeatedly tried to give is way more time than even I felt comfy with. Thanks to them and all who showed up. Sorry I don't have all the numbers. Next time I will make sure to do the book keeping. [laugh]

Thanks Betty, I wish I could of went today. It really sucks getting sick at a time like this. I really wanted to dyno my truck to see where I'm at before I molest my truck with twins and all the supporting mods.

I woke up with major sinus pressure and start of infection. That was at 5 am, I have some serious meds to kill it, I'm still not 100% but alot better.

How many went to the event?? Which truck is yours?? I recognized moparman's truck and a couple of guys there.

Ya it really is an awesome truck. I can't wait for ATS to get some new stuff dialed in for it. Then I think I will be down right dangerous!!![coffee][laugh]
Betty

Well I messed that one up! I stayed an extra day down in La Quinta thinking the 29th was Sunday. Uhhhhhh WRONG. What a bummer. Anyway it looks like you guys had a good time. Hopefully I can make the next one.

Well sorry not everyone was not able to make it & didnt get the turnout I was hoping for. But I still had a great time as i think everyone else did also. Hear is a vid of my run. On this run I made 430 RWHP & 960 RWTQ. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfZaNhx6ojQ&feature=related I was hoping for a little better but still had a great time.

It was nice seeing all the different trucks there. We didn't stay to long since I had a 6yr old that was getting bored and our friend was on crutches and needed to get off of them for a bit. Maybe the next meet we'll be able to stay longer and visit.

I'm sick and as you'll notice I'm not there with the barbques. SORRY, I don't have any way to contact except through here.Sorry you are sick hope you feel better soon and look forward to meeting you at the next event. whenever that is[duhhh] & to all who did make it. Sorry for it being a little un orginized (i'v never really set up anything befor) that is my excuse and im sticking to it lol. But I still had a great time and enjoyed meeting everyone that was able to make it.

I'm back to norm., getting up that early (to get ready for dyno ) actually helped me kill my sinus inf. before it really set in. I have sinus problems.

Anyway, now you have an idea how to do things on organizing for the next function. Right?? All is a life experience. Live and learn, something new everyday.

Dealer, and total Fan. I love their products and Customer service. Do some work for them too.
Just did the converter in my 6.7. Awesome.

Looks like good day, real sorry I missed it. Money sucks, cant live with it or without it.[verymad] Doesn't help to have a hole in wallet called a wife! ;) Now all I need is for Opec to tighten the clamps and shoot the pumps up to $5 again!! [tapdshut]

I am hoping santa will hook me up with a BHAF or 4" turbo back for christmas!! :D well see!!

Merry Christmas to everyone!!

Diesel Carpenter,
