Folks, my Son and I had a blast! Personally, I want to thank all those who worked to get the daggum optical pick-up to cooperate.

Certainly it was good seeing everyone again. Thanks to Brian for the lunch. Thanks to Ashley for serving the lunch.

I'll see the lot of you at MATR!

I was trying to catch you before you left, my brother called me on his way back to Ohio said he was stuck on 77N near Fancy Gap. Hope you you didn't get caught up in it.

Thanks but we went "shopping" and ended up going up 52 though Fancy Gap to go to the local fruit stands through there....
The shopping we did was at RV stores so it was not all bad for me, never seen the inside of a Air Stream before - kinda nice but kinda pricey too!
Was there a wreck on 77N ??

Thanks for setting up the dyno run Keegan, I had a blast. Also, thanks for the drug boost Brian and John, there was no way I was getting off that dyno without hitting 500hp. On the way home I realized that the adrenaline tune that I had actually did have loaded had EGT backdown set at 1300 degrees, thats why I had such a big drop after hitting max hp and tq. I will try again next weekend out at Wayne's to see if it makes a difference. I'll tell you one thing though, when I floated that valve on the Comp Tune, it scared the crap out of me Word of advise, don't take you're engine over 3500 rpms if you don't have hd springs. All in all a great day, trucks, smoke, beer, food, and Ashley
