I renewed my 2 year subscription in may 08' and last month I got a notice they were not sending me any further issues because they had not heard from me about renewing again. I like reading the magazine but I HATE who ever does there mailing or subscriptions. I SHOULD still have like 18 months left on this subscription, there is no reason to ask me to renew it again already, nor is there reason to stop my subscription because I refuse to reply back that I dont want to renew the stupid thing yet.

Anyway, I could rant all day. I just really hope I still recieve the magazine in the mail, cuz if not any I've already paid for it its on like donky kong.

Well checked my mail from yesterday and no Diesel power, but I did get another notice my subscription ends 1/16/09. That is just plain stupid, I paid for a 2 year just 6 or 7 months ago in May. I should have known not to renew it then because my first 12 months subscription somehow ran out it just 10 months. Now my 24 month has ran out in 7 months. What a joke, I hope the rest of you guys are having better luck with Diesel Power Magazine.

Who has the 680rwhp VE 1st Gen? I doubt that number is on fuel only, knowing Diesel Power...

I figured it was probably him. I don't consider those valid numbers. Power should be made on fuel only, in my opinion.

Yeah, him and Brian Block have made the most power with 1st Gens. Brian counts his highest run as 627rwhp, but I know he has made a run in the 650's but doesn't count it because it wasn't on a Dunbar Dyno. I still think Brian is the 1st Gen master...
