I'd like to come but we race our dirt late model both of those nights. The 20th in grain valley and the 21st in warnsburg. Valley has a 11pm curfue for the track so maybe I can meet up with some of you after the races. The last time I went to a pull they ran the diesels last and it didn't get over with until late.

 

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been on here for a while...after I got my warning from the webmaster about one word i shouldn't have posted i got mad...

but anyhow, i'll be at the platte city pull...it's like 30 minutes south of me and i pulled in it last year...we should pick a place to meet up when we get there...or at least give the rookies (me) descriptions of what trucks or to look for...or follow the local police??? lol...either works...

 

well if everything goes as planned follow the local law, now wat we gona do is come rockin hard from the south, and then......... i'll keep you in suspense till the day arrives, you'll know what to look for. a gray mega cab with stacks. that's what i'll be in, near, close to, somethng of that nature. and hookin to the sled of course, i'm lookin forward to the butt kickin i will be receivin.

 

I'll be in teh two-tone grey first gen.. nothing realy stands out to ID it.. probably still have the temp tag on the rear..

 

haha, yea pack mule...they load that sled HEAVY since it is an Outlaw pull...made a joke of my 96 last year...lol...but it was still fun...

guess i'll keep watching and see if anything new comes up closer to the time of the pull

 

i've pulled the iron man sled several times when we ran with outlaw for a few years. i like how easy it takes off. but talk about stoppin ya when the pan hits. i'm hopin to be makin alot more hp when i get there but the way it's goin i'm won't be.

 

yea, I thought the same...it takes off smoother and gentler on the truck...


but when the sled operator sets it to hit...it hit like a 40,000 lb sled...lol...

so what all new mods are you looking to get down before then?

 

the main one is the charger. i can't get it to quit leakin oil out the exhaust. i'm gonna Industrail tomorrow and ask then how to fix it. hopefully it's repairable. then i'll stick my cp3 on it. that way it'll be makin 100+ more hp.

 

hmm...sounds like a turbo rebuild is in your future...

i'm doing plenty of those now, along with just about every injection pump ever thought of...i got a new job at a performance diesel shop up in savannah missouri doing pump, turbo, and injector repairs

 

wel i got the turbo fixed finally. stupid me found one seal that i forgot to put in. it's not a quick spool of anykind. this stupid thing takes 3 days to light, but when it does it comes on hard.

 

Ok, the BOSS wants to know who is actually entering the pull,....
Pack sounds like he is.. anyone else?
and if anyone has been there before, is this grandstand seating or bring a lawn chair ? and are we grilling in the parking lot? I got a mini-propane grill( 24X24 inches) I can bring...

 

It's grandstand seating...and I would be pulling, but I'm going to try to sell my truck this coming week...it's about to nickel and dime me to death...lol

 

sell it after the pull. i'd like to sell mine also and get another 2nd gen but that'll have to wait. i'm gonna hook it and see how it does with the big ironman sled.

 

i would if it was a 12 valve and had some faith in it...but i'm not gonna dynomite any more parts...lol...i'm gonna get a cheap old gasser truck until i can save some money to get a nice newer one...probably once im out of college...but we'll see

 

well dern it CTD! I just sold a 1st gen 12v that would have been a great bombing/project truck, got 4K for it, mechanically sound too.....
should have let me know you were looking........
