Oh, and I could take you on another 'Test Drive'

Too bad it's just a '''boring''' CR with a stock intake, stock filter,stock Lift pump, stock exhaust, SMARTY Equipped, SP62/14 truck running a 'measly' 500 HP limited by the stock clutch. But it is fun!

Great! I am going south this Weekend, but for a family event.. I have to try to make an attempt to travel down that way for some diesel fun. I finally have some power to play with myself, only my charger is the choke.


As for Wildcat. After they dissolved, Rod went back to his original job and farming.. Got married too I believe. And well, the other half of Wildcat is still zooming around the country and posting in this thread..

I was a member on the TDR too, but haven't been back for about 4 years.

Wow, Pumps, Lines and What Not. Jeez, what a day. The VP44 is now nearly gone and forgotten, LOL. The CP3 and P-Pump lives on!

One person who is still around is Peter from SouthBend Clutch.

Also, what about KWIKKURT? He did alot of testing for South Bend and the KWIKSPOOL turbos.

Don't forget the Mark Kendrick character.

ATS is still around. Anybody else remember the tranny wars with DTT vs. ATS vs. SunCoast?

How about the oil wars?

Couldn't hardly get a post up about automatics, or oil without getting torn to pieces.

I was in the background there somewhere to watching the big boys play. I totally skipped the EZ and went for the "Barely Daily Driver" setup. DD1's and a "just put to market" COMP box (Drag COMPs weren't even around!)! Boy, was I a rebel! I was putting out huge whisps of smoke if I punched it from 0 boost. The factory clutch was almost crying out in pain! LOL

Boy, that was back when DTR was tiny. Under 5K people, TDR was king and there were no other forums.
