Any other 1st Gen guys going to Scheid's Diesel Extravaganza?

Dogs are allowed, just have to be on a leash. I just dropped my 92 Dodge camper off at the campgrounds at the show so I could get a spot. It's filling up already. The key to getting a spot on Dunbar's dyno is get there EARLY. Friday morning is the best time. I'll be on site Thursday evening.

I can really only make it on saturday... Maybe ill just wait until next year to get on Dunbars dyno. Ill be in eastern illinois for the next few years so ill have my chance at it.

Im glad dogs can go, that will give me a better chance at seeing all of saturdays events. No one likes to clean up rottweiler mess late on a saturday night.

If you see a Blue 1st gen with lots of rust or a pretty big kid with a rottweiler, that's me.

The only thing I can think of is too much tq at too low of an rpm. This just broadens the horizon for next year. It will still be VE equipped.

Cedar...thanks for the compliments. Hopefully a well thought out engine platform will help me with that dang 600hp mark.

Wait, which 1st gen was yours? One of the ones racing? Don't tell me it was the green one with the trailer hooked to it at the track. I was talking to the owner some.
