Hello
We have had some changes to our plans. I don't know if we will be able to make the event. The folks my wife works for has moved the schedule and I hope to know some time tomorrow what is going on.

I may just pull the 5er up and with my HELMET drink massive amounts of barley pops and drive back home on Sunday. Don't know at this time. I have seen the frying pan with my name on it and I intend to stay a good distance away from it.

I would rather spend a weekend with my wife than with a bunch of young and old men. She will be departing for points east soon after this event.

I have no clue as to what we are doing at this time.
Chris Dubie

Yeah Chris, that would be cool. This thing is doing some funky stuff and I need someone to listen to it anyway. It is surging a little and the tone changes every now and then. Don't know if this VP is on the way out or not. It's running like a scared rabbit though right now.

Im planning to come up Sat morning! I might Dyno the poor little thing too, if someone is willing to let me swap rear tires with them, Id like to see numbers of the intake and stack mods vs the stock numbers.

I too had a great time, again Joel (dieseldude4x4) organized another great event, good food, good rafle, and some pretty impresive dyno runs.

Im really glad I came out, the wife was pretty impressed by all of your trucks, she wants me to start setting mine up to compete with you guys. But 275/505 on a stocker isnt bad, but it wont be stock for long.
