Next Dyno Day in DFW

Been looking but haven't seen any Dyno Days's being done in the DFW (Texas) area. With all these diesel trucks we got running around here, you'd think it would be easy to do. Anybody heard of such an event being scheduled? I'd like to get my truck dyno'd, as well as see other trucks put up some big HP/TQ numbers.

I hear you! I'd love to see some sort of event like that here locally too.

There is going to be a little get together in Waco Sunday at Noon at Rudy's BBQ parking lot at I35 and Valley Mills if you want to come. Maybe that topic can be brought up and discussed there.

I'd like to throw my truck on the rollers and see what she's putting down.

DFW dyno day is July 23rd ( Saturday ) at the old Speedworks in Lewisville.

I will be there with a cooler full of something barley based.

Its a Dynojet. I have used that thing probabaly more than the new owners. Its a consistant and accurate dyno.

Might be a bit warm in July, but what the heck.

Don~

Sounds great to me! I will try to be there. Big Blue are you in? I'd like to see what this stock truck will push before the bombing begins.

Don will you share any of your liquid refreshment in exchange for a ride to Lewisville?

Lewisville? Man that is pretty far from McKinney. Don't know if I can hike it out that far
Sounds good to me. I am going to try to be there to see smoke and try that barley flavored stuff. Don't think I'll bother putting mine on the rollers, but some of you folks on this site have ways of making me do things I didn't plan on doing in the first place, so ya' never know. Only problem is, I don't know what I will be doing in 1 hour from now, let alone 6 weeks. Where in L'ville is Speedworks?

A friend went out by Speedworks the other day and told me it is now called HPP Racing. I did a google search for HPP racing and came up with this link HPP RACING.
I am guessing the link is the same company as who's name is on the shop, although the website does not give any physical address. The phone number has a Metroplex area code (214). Looks like most of the site is under construction.
