I'm sure if you contacted Diesel Power . They would give permission to post the pic wherever you want . Good publicity for them

Noticed the name of the event was "Diesel Power Challenge WEST".

If they came to the east a chevy wouldnt even make the top 5.

Second, since when are you allowed to pull with nitrous? I noticed every chevy and ford had nitrous and NONE of the dodges had it.

They should have had seperate dyno and pulls. One for #2 and one for n20 assisted vehicles since its obvious without nitrous the only event a chevy or ford would have won would be the fuel economy . Once again another biased article by a west coast rag.

The beef that I can only really see is that they wanted every day drivers. No sponsored vehicles of sorts. How many every day drivers turn the nitrous on and make sure the water/meth is topped off?

That... and the prizes were nothing to spend money on competing for. Maybe next year I guess.

LOL.....oops. Have you read the East Challenge issue yet? I think yet again a Duramax took the top honors.

I like the Challenge because it's based on how well your truck performs in all categories, and not just who's got the most money or mods or HP/TQ....show up shut up and perform and earn your bragging rights. That's cool competition
