It figures to be quite a crowd there...getting there early is a good idea. There will probably be a good number of "flatbillers" there as the day goes on.

Okay, so I don't get out much anymore. I had to google flatbiller.
Flatbiller of the Day
Oh yeah, looking forward to those guys.

There isn't an abundance of parking, that's for sure. Best to arrive early.

You can say that again.
There was a
cough...d-max that put down 560 - something on the dyno after you left. Gene put the little Red truck up on the rollers at the end of the day and did a little over 450...bent pushrods and all. Tried to blow 'er up, but it wouldn't pop.
I think we can expect to see good things from that truck on the NHRDA division 2 circuit next year though.
Good to see you fellas out there today!

How many dyno runs did they end up selling? I think they were at 4 completed when I left.

It dumps right under the door, too. I'd imagine it's pretty noticeable at stop lights.
