ThugLike....Y2K F250.....TDS......616.20/1041.95

There ya have it,all of the numbers from the first days adventures on the "Humbler".Some left very happy and others were left scratching their heads wondering what they did differently.Ernie,along time ago,named the jet the "Humbler" for a reason.While many manufacturers can claim many things their respective parts can do for you and your ride,the "Humbler" can show the what you actually gain and lay the hype aside.

Tommorrows another day and I am off to bed for the rest of my nap.Thanks to all who came out today and enjoyed a great day for a day 1......Andy

I had a great time today despite being humbled yet again by the humbler. Thanks to SGS for hosting us.

Sorry I didn't bring the KDP tools this time guys, nobody asked about getting one done before hand so I just assumed nobody needed it done. I'll have 'em with me in the Fall.

I wasn't able to attend today, but we had an excellent turnout yesterday. Everyone had a great time, and he SGS crew handled all the trucks in a professional manner.

It was nice seeing everyone again. As Greg said, hope to see many of you in August, and then again for Fall Brawl.

I would like to thank all who attended this years event as it turned out bigger than I expected,considering we really didn't have the weather forecast in our favor.Both days were about as nice as one could have ever wanted with no rain falling on us at all.Sometimes I wonder how we keep dodging bullets like that but I am glad we do.

The SGS Performance crew went above and beyond and provided us with a first class facility for the show and showed us how to make it run efficiently.I know that without their help we would be lost and really enjoy our shows with them.A HUGE THANK YOU from the Mason-Dixon TDC to George,Dave,Jason,Toby and their ladies for a job well done.

As a club we have grown from a small little show which barely had 40 trucks at it to one which had 70 on Saturday and near 40 on Sunday.We dynoed all total 60 trucks for the first spring venture at 2 days.Its going to get bigger and we now have the ability by doing this to make it a very laid back show that all can enjoy.

Wheelspeed award on the dyno went to Andrew when his 01 Dodge sled puller,which finished 3rd the night before at the local Washington County pull,laid down a scary 160mph shot when dynoing.Somehow Interco never envisioned their TruxUs tires to go that fast I am guessing nor did they expect them to distort them like that either.

The hard luck award goes to RamSport01.Today when doing his pull he had the misfortune of loosing his headgasket.It was the first one that has been lost at our shows in a few years and hopefully he can get it fixed up and return.

In the "I should be sponsored" category...
Does anyone besides this writer think that ARP should step up and give Doug Leonhard a set of new head studs?.I am certain that as many times as he has lifted,banged,back fired or tried to blow up his motor and it still runs.He has have to tested the sheer strength limits of their product and yet he drives her home and to his fire calls daily as needed.

It was also nice to see the Ford IDI Group slip in and join us again and for them to park amongst the rest of the dieselheads.They were on their annual spring campout and joined us on Saturday for the festivities.See Mel,even the nasty old Goat owners don't bite and a good time can be had with us.Thanks for coming out and sharing your rides with us and your group is welcome with us anytime.

Thanks to our resident chefs,Chef Jim and Chef Keith for the nice job they did wheeling our grill.Its not easy when your cooking for crowd that can over run you easily once they smell the food but they managed.

IF ANYONE had any photo's they would like to share and/or be posted with the ones I have already recieved please email them to the club at MDTDCTDR@gmail.com .I always gather what I can and add them to our Google photo's for all to see or use as they desire.

All In All a great time was had,marvelous weather again and some of the East Coasts finest examples of diesel pickups were in abundance for all to see and enjoy.I am going to call it a night and tommorrow I will begin to gather and load the photos sent to me for all to see...THANKS For A Great Time.......Andy

I had a good time and so did my buddies. Had a decent trip home, hit some traffic in Hamburg. Went well till we got off in Bethel to look at some farm equipment and first right hand turn we make the rear limited slip didn't want to release. Must not have liked getting hot. Looks like his limited slip might need a rebuild.

Just wanted to say, I think this was the best Spring Fling yet, and it keeps getting better every year.

Thanks to SGS for their hard work, and allowing us to use their facility, and thanks to Hammer for coordinating the event.

And thanks, Keith for the help on the grill.


And I finally broke 400 with the dinosaur.

Looking forward to Fall Brawl.
