I definitely will get on the dyno, not sure about racing though. Got the 62/12 installed with the Mach 4's and holy crap, insane power. I was scared to turn on the water/methanol seeing I still don't have orings and studs. I should be over 500hp now(crossing fingers)

IF, I make it will anybody happen to have perhaps a snap-on tourqe wrench and a set of feeler guages on hand? Tim said I need one more retourqe before I go and throw the hammers to it. So I'll need to do a retourqe and set the valves when I get there. I wont have any time to do it before hand since my flight will get me home late on the 4th if I make it.

One more question here. Do you guys think there will be a few minutes between my pulls on the dyno so I can switch out the juice for the Adreneline I should have by then?

See if John can bring the really nice one. You would have to ask Dunbar on the dyno deal, he might work something out with you.

Yeah I will try and give John a call. If I cant get the boxes switched out no big deal. I was just thinking it would be good to get some back to back info.

Jess what all safty equipment is required in the 7.49 class? If I can keep a turbo in this thing I will be down. Dyno and race. No way I will have a cage in it in time so I might have to back it down some. What are the rules on loops? Pete I can bring my snap on wrench if no one else has theirs. Tim

tim i am glad you asked about this so i can cover it before hand.as far as loops one for the front and one for the back at least.i just bent some rebar and welded it in place for mine.main thing we are after is that the shaft will not wedge and cause the truck to flip.as far as the 7.49 rule we will have it enforced.participants will get one shot at breaking out and we will tell the participant to slow down,if it happens again a participant will be Dqed.i am in the same boat on this 7.49 rule i actually took the smarty out and installed the cl...any more questions please ask

also there will be a trophy for unlimted hp and also a trophy for stock trucks hp.

Thanks Jess, I bought some 1" by 1/4" flat bar to bend for loops. What e.t. requires loops? Speed rated tires? Helmet rules, I have used a full face atv helmet in the past good enough? So I guess we can nail it hard once then back it down?

John if the turbo will not hold I will bring my 06 down but I should be there one way or another. Which truck are you bringing? Tim

Only the 7.49 class needs hoops, correct?
