Tim Barber and Jess Spruill in in July "Diesel Power"

I want to SINCERELY CONGRATULATE two of our longtime and well respected DTR Members, namely, Tim Barber (Timinva) and Jess Spruill (kingd) for having their trucks featured in the July 2008 Issue of "Diesel Power."

The article's title is: "High Power Rail" and features a nice write-up on both Tim and Jess's Trucks with a sub-titled article called: "Two Dodges, Two Sleepers." The article begins on page 140 of the July 2008 Issue.

Tim and Jess,.......CONGRATULATIONS to both of you!! Very well deserved!

---------

Jess:

Hey buddy, all of us that have seen your truck run on the drag strip KNOW the truck is making that level of power! Heck, your right there with me in the 1/8th mile on the times and on fuel I am a little over 800 H.P.! Don't worry about that Jess!
