Sept 16th, huh?
For some reason I've been thinking it was going to be this weekend, and conflicting with other stuff. Heck, I just *might* be able to do this.
Besides, I installed the new lift pump and Vulcan kit, and my truck still feels "weak". I wouldn't expect this much difference just going up one size on the tires. Maybe I NEED a dyno run to be sure.

So where do we stand on the dyno day?
I was just wondering, cause I am really trying to get thing slined up to be there. I know the poll shows only 4 commits and 3 maybe's.
i am hoping by some act of God I can finally get my SMARTY. Bob Wagner has had my SMARTY in Washington state for about a month I guess, waiting on more SMARTY's to arrive so he can change the boards in it to the 03.
If I get it, all are welcome to use it if I can make it over...
Banks 6 gun will also be there for sale...

We are still on guys. I had to invite some car guys to be able to get some extra interest going, so we will have some company. We should have at least 10 showing up ready to go, maybe a few more, so as of now there prob won't be any prize money awarded, wouldn't be fair to the car guys. I think we should still vote on the fav. ride though.
See ya'll there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just trying to find the best way down there. Mapquest is saying to head out 40 then to 70 and 45 into Tupelo. Should I go this way or just go down the Trace? They both seem about the same. If it helps I'm coming out of Nashville. Thanks....

I think it was planned for about 10. I was gonna check on that also. Let me know what time you plan on leaving. I'd have to lead you by about 45mins to an hour to meet up with you, but we can head down there together.

Well, no chance on the best looking rig winner here. Got a call from the boody shop today. "Well Mr.Kelly, the first door was for a quad cab(salvage door), the door they got wednesday was right, but rusted in the lower portion. We called them back, other door was rusted too. Soooooo, we ordered a new door, insurance adjuster is coming out." I'm glad they were looking out for me, I'll use that body shop forever now. So, how long will it take for the adjuster? Don't know, they have the other dents fixed, just need the door and paint, then put back together. I fear there will be no time to put all my stuff back on the truck before the meet. So, no bed guards, no toolbox, no headache rack....ooohhhhh, pains me to think about that. Don't want to put in the toolbox, cause I need the headache rack done first, and the bedrails too. Boy, I'd like to kill me a @#$%%!@@#!!!!!!! Illegal south of the border guy right now!!!!! Yeah the one that hit my TRUCK!!!!!!!! 
So hopefully I'll be there in a barenaked truck, don't worry I will be fully clothed!!!

Hey Dodgeguy, what time are you planning on leaving? I'll probably be bringing a friend of mine. He's down by the entrance to the Trace near franklin. I hate to say it but I'll probably be rollin at around 5am 
My truck is willing, me on the other hand 
It's going to be a long day, fun day, but long day.......
