I saw it pull at Springfield, MO. Quite impressive considering the few small problems John was having. John is also a VERY nice guy, I recommend him to everyone in the Kansas/Missouri area.

I tried at Springfield, and all I discovered is that it's gonna need a Dual Disc Clutch. I plan on pulling as soon as I can afford the DD clutch.

Man, what a joke that was. The truck was basically in limp mode. The programmer has roached the way the thing runs. Cant seem to get it back on track. Never could get it to dyno over 480 HP that week. ECM reflashes are under way and hopefully it will come back and play nice again.

I reckon the Duramax guys weren't too happy about that...

John got a first place this weekend at a local pull! Owensville MO.

He was actually pulling for exibition only and was 7 feet in front of that Gullet fella who exploded the rear end.

Because he did exibition, he actually got no real place in the standings. Good job none the less though

Thats two first places back to back.
