Not going to be able to make this one. Having some health issue right now and need to get things straightened out first. Having a stress test tomorrow at Highpoint Cardiology.
Wish I could make it, you guys enjoy. Someone post up the dyno numbers and some action vids (Keegan).

This was a GREAT Event!!
I want to start off by thanking Lucas for hosting this event and for inviting me to come up to a beautiful area to help out with the event. Lucas,......thanks for everything!
It was great to see old friends and meet new faces! Having participated and put on these type of events, I know how much work is involved. My thanks to Mike Battterson and his partner for all their hard work on the dyno.
On Friday night we were treated to some delicious Atlantic Crab directly from Chesapeake,Va. and home grown corn on the cob. My sincere thanks to Bobby and his Wife for bringing that! Also, a big thanks to Chad for giving out all the free T-Shirts.
These events are not possible without the generous support of sponsors. I am going to list the ones that I know of and let Lucas add to it as needed:
L&N Performance
Diesel Bombers
Diesel Truck Resource
Scheid Diesel
ATS Diesel
Advance Auto
Sears
When Members need aftermarket parts or products I would like to encourage everyone to use these vendors and business. They support us, so we should support them.
There were a total of thirty-three trucks that ran on the dyno.
My congratulations to Jason Eppling for laying down the big number of the day (I think it was 690 H.P.)! For those of you that did not make it to the event, we had a VERY high "correction factor" on the dyno of 1.14-1.16! It was also hot (90-91 degrees most of the day) so IMHO, the dyno numbers were somewhat lower on many of the trucks. Lucas and I were told by Mike Batterson that it was one of, if not the highest CF he had ever seen.
BTW,.....Mike will be posting all the dyno numbers as soon as possible for all who ran on his dyno.
Finally, I want to thank everyone that personally helped me with alot of stuff on Friday and Saturday.

This event was really great this year. There was a huge turnout and Lucas, John, and the sponsers did great job of getting it all organized. A big hats off to the Dunbar Dyno crew. They were the most efficient dyno team I have ever seen. I agree with John that the numbers seem low, but heat, elevation, and humidity will do that. It was great meeting a lot of new people and running into some of those from the past. Looking forward to it next year. Hopefully the numbers will get posted up soon. Dustin
