Thanks for the response

Thanks

I will chime in later today with some updates.I was not sure if I even could attend Saturday due to work and no vacation time but I will now make Saturday and take the loss in wages.I have been working as much as possible to get fixed what was left to me in this divorce mess and have had little time for much else.

It has been heard that there have been some secret meetings of the Common Rail crowd here,both HP upgrades and some super secret dyno tuning getting ready for Fall Brawl.I have a feeling that this years event is going to be a doosy and that SOMEONE IS and I repeat,IS,going home via a trailer or tow truck.

We all know that will not be "Chicken Little" aka Wade,because he has once again come up with a multitude of excuses to not back up his lofty claims made.Couple his fear and knowing he will loose all those nice Benjamins to Dockboy the only thing he is bringing is his sneakers.

Also..
I have been informed that,along with Wade being a no show,Dockboy's ride will not be ready for the torque challenge and his spot will also be filled by someone else.I will look things over and get invites out to the next two on the HP list from last years show.

Someone also NEEDS to bring a drool towel and a mop along for Wannadiesel.Once he sees what Tater has done to his truck he may have alot of swabbing the deck to do.Maybe we could put some of those posts up with the velvet rope to keep him at bay for a while,..

I will slip in later tonite as I need to finalize some last minute things for the show...........Andy

 

[Double-S-Diesel]

planning on being there saturday.

 

[Hammer]

Well this week has been one to strain my patience.I will not understand why when businesses say they will cover the trophy fees and then when you go to collect,they give you a resounding "I am NOT interested at all now".TWO of them did that this year,the one for our class trophies and the one for our Show-N-Shine Trophies.I understand in business things do change,but,it sure would help with a little communication so it does not create a last minute scramble like Jetpilot and I are in now.We have about got it covered and I will now drop a update in quick before bed.

UPDATE!!!!!...Here ya go hot off the press today......

Class awards now will be provided by the "Geno's Garage" group and I would like to thank Robin,Robert and the entire group there for helping us out in a pinch when we needed it.

Torque Challenge Awards are being sponsored by "Old Chickies Hill Auto Transport" and our resident speed doctor Mr.MPH himself,Oasis-3.Thanks Cliff again for the help we certainly do appreciate it.

Show-N-Shine awards will be provided by "Renegade Diesel Performance" of Lancaster,PA.Those awards will be the following classes..Best Dodge,Best Ford,Best Chevy/GMC and Best Conversion.I would like to thank Scott for stepping in and filling one of the last minute vacancies and helping us out as it is certainly appreciated.

One award not talked about which I have secured is one for the Ford crowd.It has been noticed that we are finally having more Ford owners to come out and enjoy our shows and the fun that goes along with it.To show our appreciation we have added an award for the "Highest HP Ford" which is sponsored by "The Dieselsite".The Rileys have stepped in and allowed us to add this so we could show our appreciation of those Ford owners who have been growing in numbers.To be eligible for this award you must have a Ford vehicle,powered by a Ford Powerstroke(conversions allowed-example-Bronco/Van equipped with a Powerstroke or IDI),single charger and be on #2 alone.This will be the first award given solely to the Ford Contingent and may next year grow into a class separation for them.I am trying gang,show me you want this and next year will be bigger and better.

There was a question sent to me about camping on site and it is allowed.Please try and stay on top in the stone lot or along the edge so when the show is going on you have no one messing with your equipment.Another question was tent camping and that will also be allowed,HOWEVER,stay along the outside and please no open fires.

I will add a little more tomorrow as I find out who will be there vendor wise and who will not.I will also echo Greg and Jims requests with remember that we will still need food to cook even though the SP Diesel group is having a catered BBQ(THANKS GUYS!).I will drop in tomorrow with more.......Andy

 

[ktpauley]

I would like to request that on Saturday the front row in the grass be reserved for the Show-N-Shine vehicels.

Thanks,
Keith

 

[aaklingler]

What time do they finish up running trucks, I'm planning on going tomorrow?

 

[Hammer]

We will dyno until we get tired,hungry,thirsty or just run out of daylight,.Seriously we try and stop like about 5-6ish depending on how things go.Sunday we try and finish up a tad earlier.

The remaining funds for the Class Trophies was donated to the club by Lloyd Mills and "Mid Atlantic Diesel Performance".He joins Geno's Garage as the sponsors for the 4 classes of competition this year.THANKS LLOYD and we will make every effort to make sure your paper plate is Multi-colored this year.

Vendors...
Zimmies Automotive will be on hand as will D-P Tuner,Eric from Innovative,Scott from Renegade Diesel and Corey from PDW.I think,and I may be mistaken here,that Zimmies will be the only one with a table set up but Corey may also have one.Seems most calls were unanswered as were the emails and I do not understand for the life of me why.I also do not think that any magazine will be on hand as none of our email sent from a couple of us got any response.

Weather looks like it will give us mineshaft air(below sea level air) Saturday and it should make for a good,no a great HP day.Look forward to seeing all who come and enjoy the fun......Andy

There Ya Have it folks,Another year has come and gone and it was quite the show.For those who came,they witnessed something special as club records fell.Those who did not make the trip missed out and will have to wait until next year.Thanks to all who did come and help make a great show keep getting better......................Andy

 

[Hammer]

The Mason-Dixon TDC would like to thank their sponsors for the help in making this show happen.

1st-Geno's Garage,Mid-Atlantic Diesel Performance,Renegade Diesel Performance,The Dieselsite and Old Chickies Hill Auto Transport who provided us with the capabilities to present the winners with some great trophies.Their dedication to this show was greatly appreciated by all of us in attendance.

2nd-SGS Performance...Dave,George,Jason,Toby and the entire crew again did their usual,hard working,flawless effort to make sure the show went off without a big hitch.We always appreciate their hard work to make the show go as effortless as possible and again they did it.Some minor little glitches popped up but were quickly eliminated with their quick work and the show trudged on to its finish.THANK YOU GANG FOR A JOB WELL DONE!!!!!!.

3rd-SP Diesel...The BBQ cookout was really a nice thing to do and the club and the show attendees appreciated it.So thanks need to be sent to Brad and Sean for Andy's being there and it was enjoyed by all who were there.I will have to admit,while the pork was good,man the chicken was out of this world.

4th-Zimmies Automotive,Innovative Performance,SP Diesel,PDW Power,Mid-Atlantic Diesel,Renegade Diesel,D-P Tuner and East Coast Diesel.These were the vendors who supported the show by being there,answering many asked questions and doing some work also.The continued dedication helps the owners out and the club appreciates that.THANKS GANG!!!...I am not sure if I missed anyone else but a simple PM and I will fix that as I feel I did.

5th-Our Show-N-Shine Judges and Cooks.Michelle,Larry and CJ did a great job with the judging and thanks is in order.Our resident cooks,Chef Keith and Chef Jim did a fine job wheeling the big burners and I know they had some help along the way also.THANK YOU GANG!!!!

I am off to bed but before I go I personally want to thank Dockboy and Jetpilot for their work with me to get this show off.Without their hard work I would not have gotten this much done because of other distractions.

I have seen where this show has come from along time ago to what it has become.Waaaayyyyy back when at the first gathering on the jet it was 1BIG44 and myself who had the high power numbers,which were just over 300.Now at 1125hp(Common Rail),851hp(VP44) and 817(12v) I wonder where we will go next next.This year quietly we as a club had our records fall with the Top HP(Lloyd Mills-1125),Highest VP44(Offshoreracr-851) and Best 12v(John_P-817).Offshoreracr's truck,if not the highest,has to be among the top HP numbers ever for a VP44 equipped truck.Where will it end,only time will tell but with each and every one who comes a new number is possible.Thanks to all who came out and enjoyed their time with us........Andy

 

[Double-S-Diesel]

had a great time. the common rail conversion in the 02 ford was just plain awsome.
wished I could have stayed for both days.
tons of people and trucks.
Like Andy said this event has come along way from what it was before, aqnd it keeps growing.
I remember the first one we went to, there was only 2 or 3 fords, and it stayed that way for a few years, now there is more.

awsome show, mauny thanks to the dyno guys, MDTDR, and all the sponsors.
Nick

[Agnem]

I was sorry I missed it. We had trees cut down saturday and it was just supposed to be a quick project, but the man lift broke down and blocked all 5 vehicles in the driveway. The sawing ended up going into Sunday because of it.

 

[ktpauley]

Mel, you missed a great weekend of people, trucks, and food. There was a Bronce II on a cut down fullsize Bronce frame with a 4BT Cummins in it, and a Ranger with a 4BT in it. I didn't get a chance to take pics of either truck. Keith

 

[Hammer]

You mean these Keith???????.........Andy
