You can run your BLUE truck against my BLUE truck.
Heads up racing I think you will have me. I loose my boost each shift, all you do is hold it to the floor.

Geoffrey has been tasked by his mother to run her truck in this event. I have been tasked with taping as much as I can so I can send a CD of the event to her.
I raced Geoffrey off a light and the 04 3500 holds her own until I get in 4 or 5th gear then I take over. My truck is limited by me I can not shift fast enough.

I am still looking into pulling the goose nck down the track with a Farmall super M on it just to see what it will do. My truck runs better when it has something behind it. The combined weight will be close to 19,000 lbs.
I still need to talk to the race track about that.
See Ya
Chris

Sorry Dennis
I will be to busy taping the event to change injectors. I have a deal for you. You get to the Dyno early and let your truck cool off and say in 3/4 hours we talk Tim VA into changing the injectors. I would recommend that you buy new seal rings (copper washers) to seal the injectors. Let me know if you are interseted.
See Ya

I am the self apointed marshall of this event Here is how it will be.
I AM NOT INTO THIS TWINS VS NOS OR WHAT EVER thing. I am a die hard diesel head. I don't care if you are raceing a IH 656 against a IH 1066 or a John Deere 644 against a Cat 988 or a J D 4010 against a case 1070, Ford vs Chevy vs Dodge. folks will find a way to bend the rules. The below classes are based on events that I have attended.

IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT THEN DON'T SHOW UP. This event is meant for fun and fellowship if you are just looking for a trophy this is not your weekend.

1 STOCK
2 MODIFIFIED
3 MODIFIFIED/W FUEL ADDITIONAL SOURCES
4 MODIFIFIED/ W ADDITIONAL AIR SOURCE
5 RUN WHAT YOU BRUNG

So far two of the above 5 trophies have been locked on.
King D if the folks you are in contac with with pony up to the other three that would be great. Either let me know here or PM me. I will be leaving for Wa state on Sunday the 21st and won't be back till the 24 th. I need to know by then so if need be I will go get the other trophies out of my pocket.

I did most of the leg work on this so if you want let me know and we can go to the tree line and settle this the old way if need be.

Chris Dubie
just out of curiousity what trophys have been secured?

and i dont hink it is fair for a twin compounded truck to be in the same class as a single chargered truck
Why? Sorry, but when properly setup a single w/ N20 will always out-dyno a twin chargered truck. A 24V Dodge struggles to get over 650 HP with twins, but there are quite a few over that on the bottle. I don't consider nitrous cheating (in fact, DHRA rules allow singles w/ NOS vs. twins), but the fact remains they will usually dyno higher. Most guys just like twins because of the driveability and "always there" power.

Dennis,

I can give you a hand w/ the injector swap if you'd like....

John

STOCK- This class is limited as in the years past to the following mods,air intakes and aftermarket exhausts.NOTHING ELSE!.I am going to try and figure a way to make all the years competitive with each other as the newer common rail injection trucks have way more HP than the older rides.Those caught with other unapproved mods in this class will forfeit any chance of winning anything.Please be honest owners,this is a fun show and I'd like to keep it that way.

MODIFIED-This class is limited to a SINGLE turbo with NO PUMP CONVERSIONS(example:A 24 Valve single turbo truck with a P-Pump installed)and on #2 ONLY.The use of over the counter fuel additives is permitted but NO DRUGS(this includes meth injection and water misters).Aftermarket chargers,fueling boxes,injectors and pusher pumps are all legal.Owners who run single chargers and use drugs may compete as long as their bottle has been disconnected or removed,these owners will be asked to show they did this when they enter the dyno room.

COMPETITION-This class will allow any fuel pump combination(example:P-Pump conversions),any charger(twins included) or supercharger and run on #2 alone.Over the counter fuel additves permitted but NO DRUGS(this includes meth injection and water misters).Any injector,fueling box,aftermarket turbos(twins permitted) and pusher pumps are ok.Owners who have drugs may compete but must disconnect their bottles or tanks and will be asked to show this when they enter the dyno room.

UMLIMITED-Run What Ya Brung...This is the "Don't Bring A Knife To A Gunfight Class".
Any fuel,charger configuration any amount of drugs can be used here.The only rule here is the HOOD MUST close and latch tightly.This is for safety reasons as we have seen the aftermath of a head-gasket explosion with the hood open.

The information above I pulled from tha FALL BRAWL post. Hammer and JetPilot came up with that and it semed to work well.
I think it is a better than the classes that I had written down.

Remember this is meant to be a fun event to get together and shoot the bull and have a good time.

Hope this clears up the mess I made.
See Ya
Chris

i dont think it is fair for a single chargered truck with out nos to have to compete in the same class as a twin powered truck,just like i dont feel like it would be fair for twins to have to run against a truck running lp and nos together.i also new aboput the dhra nos and twin deal.my whole point is to try and amke the classes as even as possible so all makes have a good chance at competting.

Dennis I have some injectors you can try. Your turbo will probably glow red but it will put out some power. Kidding aside if you want to install some injectors there we should be able to them in about a hour so you dyno before and after. I will bring tools. Tim

I'm still working with Tim to see if we can get this junk running again but between work and getting this done, it isn't looking real good. Sounds like it is going to be a good time again.

Hello
Much better mood tonight. I should go back and delete the post from the other night. Sorry About That

Dose the way Fall Brawl ran the event make sense. I already know that not everyone will be happy.
single chargers are a different class from dual chargers.
NOS and propane will be in their own class. Folks that run drugs can if they want run in the other two classes if they wish as long as the bottles are unhooked or turned off. The stock folks will be together.
I was out at the local mudd bog tonight talking up the event there was allot of interest.

Dennis shoot me a e mail at cdubie@ec.rr.com I tried to sent you the flyer and it came back undeliverable.
So are you interested in the slightly used sent of DDIIs??
You thought that the EZ box woke your truck up try the DDIIs . Let me know and I bring them to the event.

I will be leaving for Washington State around noon on the 21st. I will be back on the evening of the 24th. If the trophy issuse is not handled by then I will go take care of that on the 26th.
I hope the wheather holds for a couple of more weeks it was above 70 degrees here today.
See Ya
Chris

do you want to run in classes?like just run stocks,then modifieds,exct or will a truck pull in and before each run say this is what this is for?becuase of time constraints and economics i think the later of the 2 is the best bet.know as far as unhooking my bottles i will gladly open the lid so anyone of you can check to see its turned off but i am not gonna unhook the lines,i think that is more than sufficient.
john thanks for the info on the trophys,i have sent p smurf an email concering the trophys and he has not gotten back with me yet i am sure he is buisy with hhis upcoming trip
