D.I., Hellmann Performance, HotRodDiesels @ HMP Friday 6th

We are sponsoring a race at HoustonMotorsportsPark friday night.
$200 to win, we will match up the 2 quickest/fastest to a winner takes all race. Red lights count. Heads up, no breakout, run what ya brung, and hope you brung enough
The final race will be about 9pm. Get there early and get some runs in, the entries into the "money" race will be based on timeslips from THAT day/night.

John Volpe has won all the events so far, so who's going to unseat him?

We will also have my drag truck there. Come see if we can run a mid 6 second pass.

Michael Watkins
Joe Hellmann
David Lott

Well I plan on being there to try and win it all for the third staight time. It has been a lot of fun. Lots of BS between the three shop owners. That alone is worth being there for.

I have just been lucky no really fast trucks have shown up yet. That will probably change this Friday. But I love the track and competition win or loose. Of course I would prefer to win.

Well I got lucky this month for sure. The Duramax I raced for the money is faster than me, but he forgot to put it into 4wd.

He had no chance to hook up and he is not that much faster than me.

Have you seen him run quicker times before? He may not be "quicker" than you, regardless. You have a fast truck!

Thanks, for what it has it is pretty quick. Just wish I could hunt with the Big Boys. Maybe this summer.

Yea he ran a 7.77s @ 92mph for his qualifying run about 45 minutes before the race. About .2 faster than I was running Friday night. Like I said a win is a win.
