Okay, so American Falls, ID is closer than I thought, only 3 hours away. I just signed up on the Bully Dog site, so it looks like I'm going! If Christian is gonna represent the 800+ horsepower club, I'll try to represent the 700 horsepower club!
Mark, if you wanna cruise with me, give me a ring!

Call Shane...He is in Twin...probably the closest "friend". But there are tons of hotels/truckstops around there...you will find something. You could also stop earlier...say ogden...and make the last 2 hours in the morning?
Call me if you need Shane's number or anything else.
505-379-2750.

If you're taking I-80 all the way in to Salt Lake before you head north on I-15, you can crash at my place in Draper, which is about 15-20 minutes south of the I-80/I-15 split. Then it's about a 3 hour drive to American Falls. I just PM'd Mark, and he's planning on leaving about 5:30am, so we could all caravan in if you wanna do that. Let me know, 801-879-9282

It was a great day... glad I pulled it off although driving for over 20 hrs in a 31 hour span left me a little spent today.
I was great to meet all you guys up there and a very memorable day for sure. There were a lot of really nice looking trucks up there for sure... my poor truck came away with an inferiority complex... may have to start modding more now!! LOL... I did get points in the "sleeper class" didn't I?

It was great meeting everyone! Great event!
The "smaller" turbo'd trucks all meet there goals!...
Congrats to DTR members (or x's) on #2 diesel runs only..
terry - 708ish...wow...clean drivable truck...has more left...needs duals ;-)
jared - 707ish...wow...very clean fast drivable truck! Love it.
shane - 620ish...moving up...needs some tuning.
big mark - 610ish...on only DDP 50's and Smarty!
And a few others that slip my hungover mind...
Bully Dog hosted a great event...and I am sorry for them that the top common rail dodges all had Smarty...whooops! ;-)
Hey competition helps all products develope to a higher form right?
I was happy for the future...but did not hit my mark. On the wonderful tune and drive on the way down there...hit 87 psi several times on the street.
Struggled on the dyno to hit 70...barely...smoked like I never do and managed to hit 760/1350. I have to do a little wastegate adjustment...since I am starting to overrun the top with the bottom....and its getting in the way.
So...850 or more diesel only coming in a week or so from Meridian's Dynojet and I will see you all in Utah in August.
Oh ya...and a BIG thanks the the guys that make it happen.
MPI - Nathan Wright...sick twins!
F1-Don M....sticks cam and springs
Smarty/TST/MP-8 for letting em adjust the fuel, timing, pressure, and RPMS to anything I WANT!
Ultimate Transmission for keeping it to the ground.
OUT!
I am having dreams of nitrous thought...
