Let me know if you need a hand with anything, since I live down the road from Wayne's it would not be a bother to bring things along. I know I can't help with the grill, mine weighs about 250 lbs. But propane is no problem.

Hello again
I am thinking about bringing the goose neck trailer, It seems like my truck is happier when it's pulling something. I would bring the 5er but the corner at the end is to sharp and I would hate to throw everything outa the cabnets. I wonder what I could run on the dragway That and if there are any breakdowns there would be a trailer on hand to tote off the caranage.

I am going to stay somewhat nice this year and not talk as much stuff. I hope to bring out a larger mix and I for one would like to see the big three well represented, as well as the import stuff.
The main effort will be to enjoy the day and have fun.

Yes I am a Grandpa. Leslie had a little girl Taylor Marie on the 9 of July. I don't know anything about haired over. Geoffrey and I are running up to Dover Del this weekend to see them.
Take care
Freedom ain't free
See Ya

We'll be working 80 hours a week from the 28'th of October to the end of November (SmurF knows what I look like during that period). Hoping to close out around the last of November so I will definately need a break if it is in December. I wouldn't race since I have the same problem I had last year. Too much HP for the clutch I have. But I would make it to see the folks again.

Dec. 4th

Hello to you all. I have looked at the calendar and Dec. 4th is the date.
I do want to make one thing clear. KingD is the one that contacted me first about the get together we had here last year and then John P and Chris D took it and made it bigger. Not taking any thing away from these 3 men but it was a group effort that made it such a big deal and I was proud to be part of it and hope we can make it bigger this year.
As for the different classes don't get to carried away. JohnP and myself have talked and I suggested a #2 class and then a drug class. But what do you do about the guy that has 1 turbo veruses somebody that has 2 or 3 turbo's all on #2.
I personally want to see a Ford come and whip up on all you Chevy and Dodge guys. I may even go as far as offering a reward for any Ford that can whip up on old JohnP's red rocket on the dyno and at the track. How's that for smack talking John ?????
I may even try to get him with my Lightning
Everybody bring you Fords, Dodges and Chevys and have a good time. Also how do we get this out to other Diesel sites?

I'll be watching this to see what happens, and if I can make it. Can anyone offer more info on exactly where this takes place? I need to check some maps and maybe book a hotel room.

Thanks,
Chris

Chris:

The Dyno Event will be held at "Waynes Dyno and Performance"
just outside Jacksonville, N.C. The drag strip is just a few
miles from Waynes' shop but near Richlands, N.C.

Chris Dubie or myself will post some hotel information
in a few days.

Hello
It's time to get a feel for how is going to dyno and who is going to race and who is going to do both.
That is not a problem finding a room to stay at, there are plenty close by.
If you are planning on this event either post your intentions here or PM John or me.

John
We may need to go to the dragway and get this locked on. I'll try and get intouch with you on Wedsday.
Take care
Friends don't let their friends vote for kerry.
See Ya
Chris

No Sir,
You don't need to be a member,,,,,,, all ya need is a truck and a good sense of humor cause we do like to kid around with the Ford and GM guys. Be warned,,,,, there are a couple of North Carolina DuraMaxes that are awful quick at the strip! ain't that right Jess?,,,

Jared,
Hope to see ya down there.
