Re:Muncie reports?
Well the dyno broke at the end of the first day after about 30-35 trucks had been run. Then today it was rained out at the track. A few people got to run a few times but I didn't :'(. The high from the dyno was 608hp by Andy of ADT. Sleddy won the 7200lb open class and Scheids won the 8200lb class. I also didn't get to dyno before it broke and I dont believe any west coast truck did.<br><br>That's all for now<br>Nathan

Its a terrible thing to drive from that far away and have to go home without dynoing or dragging. <br><br>How would one determine the winner of the dyno event if the others did not get to even try?<br><br>Dern weather sometimes >

Re:Muncie reports?
From what I have been reading on the other site, I am glad I did not go to Muncie. The dyno broke after about 30 trucks. Lots of carnaige at the sled pulls and the drags got rained out. That would have been a long drive for a cold beer. 
Idaho CTD,
I thought you wasn't going to Muncie? Just couldn't stay away?

Re:Muncie reports?
Here is a quote from Justin about what happened at Muncie.<br><br>
<br>
<br>Showdown at Muncie Mitchell vs. Scheid <br>8000 Open class saturday night Pulls @ Thunder in Muncie. <br>The event of the night. <br>Smokin' Dave Mitchell Vs The Scheid truck (Kent Crowder, Dan Scheid) <br><br>Mitchell was out before Scheid (amongst a host of other trucks). <br><br>The Mitchell truck spooled and came out shakey and let out. <br>The operators pulled the sled back, Dave tried again and it was about the same. <br>This time Dave unhooked and drove the truck to the parking lot. <br><br>Couple trucks later Scheids truck rolls out of the woodwork and hooks to the sled. <br><br>Start of the pull: <br>Spoooooooooooooooooooooll Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee <br>Kent takes off out of the hole spinning tires all the way and shooting smoke out of the one stack protruding from the hood (probably 100 feet in the air). <br>At about 250 feet the truck was still accelerating (where everyone else was dying). <br>About 275 the track started to bite, but he still managed a 300+ foot pull. <br>I forget the exact number, but the crowd went absolutely nuts! <br><br>Other pulls that stood out to me were. <br>Genes win in the 7200 open, an obvious win. Sledpuller had the chargers lit real well. <br><br>Rob Thomas' pull in one of the street classes (good one!). <br>Clint Cannon of ATS had some good pulls with the Duramax. <br><br>Van Haisley had a good win, I think it was the 7200 street (I forget exactly). <br><br>Haisley's twinned truck broke, if I remember correctly popped a gasket or chargers (dont know for sure). <br><br>The EEP/Mitchell truck that is Bronze/Brown color also demonstrated some great pulls last night. <br><br>J.R. Adkins blew a charger in about 5 seconds, had it lit and sent it into orbit. <br><br>Curt Haisley also sent his charger into orbit as he started his spool. <br><br>Mike Meinecke (ATS Diesel) (Twins, Nitrous, ATS auto) <br>Mike had a great pull until his Dana 70 decided to check out of the hotel (without him). I think his pull was 260 feet (dont remember for sure). <br><br>Sean ATS Powerstroke pulled twice, second time broke his front right hub. <br><br>Strick9 Broke something at about 200 feet (not sure what happend, looked bad though). <br><br><br>Congratulations to the Scheid Truck pulling Team. <br>You guys proved AGAIN that you are #1. <br>GO INDIANA! <br>

Re:Muncie reports?
We should have had a DTR meeting or even some kind of sticker so we could know who was who. I was there and only met 6 fellow DTR members. <br>DM01
