Thumbs up Canadian Guys - Anyone go to Aug Blackout last year?

NADPs meet in Edmonton. It's on for Aug 25, 2007, and I'm gonna be there. It'll be my first such event. I'm really curious to know if there is a dyno available. Anyone know if there was last year or if there will be in 07?

I just got my NADP T-Shirt, sticker and discount card via courier (all free!), by signing up as a member on their website.

Who else is goin'?

I was there last year, will be again this year. Yes there was a dyno at NADP's shop, but you only get a quick blast on it, still fun though, lots of people to bs with. I highly recommend it to everyone. I will be most likely racing this year, and not just a spectator like last year.

I was also there as a spectator on Saturday and went for a spin on the dyno on Sunday. I had a good time. Will make my best effort to make it again. There was a little talk of sled pulls for this year as well. Bikini contest was great! Wife made me delete all those pics though...... LOL

Yeah...... I belted off a blistering 324 hp. That was with an unlocked tc. I must be way overfueled. Lots of smoke and no power! I was the truck that FORCED a lunch break. LOL Got some of it on video...... but missed most of the smoke action.



I am almost done putting in a lock-up switch. Got everything wired and soldered, just have to run into cab and hook up switch so I can try my luck on the dyno in Olds this weekend.
