Well..........since im the only one that participated...... from the North Texas DTR #8 group.........i'll post the video that I have of mine.... It is kinda hard to see clearly though.





It was a fun event! To my knowledge there was no carnage from the sled pull, but maybe one truck tore something up on the front end from doing a tug-o-war.

we have something like 40 vids from the sleds and the all important vid of matts wake up call, as well as a bunch of pictures... D has most of them on his laptop though and hopefully we can get them all up and running tonight.

I see you didn't go with my suggestion of 6 1/2 Fox.
On how a dyno works, maybe it just takes a semi accurate reading then throws a random number in there.

Thanks to Rowland for deciding to put together the dyno event before Alvarado. It was perfect timing for me to get a 500hp dyno sheet so I could win the 500 HP club hitch cover from NADM at the sled pull.

Here's a picture of it that's not tarnished by my ugly mug standing behind it (because I know there are a couple of those floating around).

NADM came down for the sled pulls. They brought some stuff to be given away during the pulls. They were giving that hitch cover to whoever could bring a dyno sheet closest to 500HP. I had my sheet from that morning showing 509, plus I was probably the only person there actually carrying a dyno sheet (not counting the other four guys from that morning), so I won it.

Needed one for 700hp for Rowland.
I still think you need to set that up for a buckle.
