Well we were there, unloaded the truck and had electrical short, seen smoke, no forward gears, had to load back up in reverse and go to the house. Diagnosis is yet to be seen.

 

How many trucks were in the class?

 

That's to bad... You would've probably took home 1st at this pull too.

 

.

That would have been nice but you never know till it's over. After all these years of pulling I've learned to try not to expect too much or you'll be dissapointed a lot. Sure would have been nice to at least make a pull after a 4 hour drive.

 

Thanks for coming out guys! We have one more pull of the year, Leeton Mo. It is located south of Warrensburg. I'm not 100% postive if they will have a class for the diesels yet, but will check. Who all would be intrested in pulling with us in a diesel class next year? We need a couple of guys to come to the rules meeting and represent the diesel class. I talked to Jeff Jansen and said he would try to make it.
gwhammy- Was that your truck with Justin Edwards out of Paris? Sure looked like it was going to run!

Justin (something) brought in a white dodge that started on ether, it appeared to be a modified class truck and sounded awesome. He had some drive line issues but it would have been nice to see it run. I think he was from Paris, MO?

 

Yep, that's the poor old work truck. It needs some suspension and tread change to even try to compete with you guys,even then it doesn't seem like the automatic will keep up with the manual transmissions. I think Justin's truck is going to run real hard when he gets it all ironed out. Justin popped the spiders out of the carrier, we guess it might have wheel hopped a little and the was all it took. They sure put on a good pull in Jeff City didn't they!

 

Luken you sure assume alot...

 

I sure do. The truck has pulled against some hot trucks (dual cp3 d'maxs & 12valves) and it has been bringing home 1st place everytime...

Besides, 3rd gens pull better

 

He is going to have some hot competition here shortly from a certain white truck from Springfield. Also a 3rd gen.

 

I know!!! It should be good! Between those two Missouri trucks and that 3rd gen in Indiana the 3rd gens are doing AWESOME!!! LOL

 

When is he expecting his truck to be ready?

 

My guess is he will have it this week sometime.

 

I think you all need to come to some MID MO Pulls where all the Top Missouri boys pull... Being Jeff Jansen, Jeff Strothkamp, Brad Hodler, Kevin Cole,The Imhoff Brothers and a few more...

 

I'm sure he will pull at several of them. He will be making the power but needs a locker in the front and a few other minor things to finish it out. I personally think the ground speed on this truck will be unreal with it's hp capability.
