Im not sure anymore, there has been so many additions and deletions, I am a little confused. But I think about 12 15 trucks on the rollers, and 10 or more as spectators

Thats less than I figured that want to run on the dyno, so if there are not too many I will run for sure. I wouldnt mind adding some numbers to my sig so long as they are a bit higher than stock. By the way, Im running mud terrain tires, will I need some extra weight to keep from breaking loose or is that just wishfull thinking? I guess I need to update my signature because the full fuel screw is all the way in and a bit of torque applied to it, plus a bit more timing has helped some.

Last event we had, they ratcheted the trucks down pretty good, I don't think any weight would've made much difference. Your tires would probably be ok, we had one running a set of Iroks, and they held up. The other chevy's though, lots of little bits of rubber laying around after his runs.

Thanks, Ive never run on a dyno so this is all new to me. I dont think my old heap will make enough power to tear up any rubber but it would be interesting to find out how much my modifications have done for me.

Looks like I'm going to have to pass on this event.

The weather has not been in my favor to change out the intercooler and such. Weather hasn't helped things at work either so it looks like I'm having to work the weekend anyways.

I'll have it all together for the next one for sure. I need some new numbers to see where my latest mods have put me.

Sorry guys, I tried!!

Jeff

Thats too bad Jeff, hope to catch you at the next one. BTW I found out today that the dyno is a Mustang, so that is good for us diesel guys.

I hope you can make it Jason, I think it will be a good one.

On a side note, I will be in Edmonton for sure Friday, I am going to stop by both sub performance and NADP. Not sure what NADP is going to do for us yet, but Barry said again on monday that he is coming down for sure. Also if anyone wants to get together for a drink or 2 on friday night let me know.

Well hey, its been a while... Too bad, it would be interesting to see how the twins on a the ol 12V would perform, especially with the 22.5" rubber.

I am still waiting on confirmation, but I probably am out too.
