Minuteman Trucks Dyno Day 2013

Posted up some of the Minuteman Truck Dyno Day info in the New England forum!! You can also sighn up through the link in my sig. Sure would be nice to get a strong FTE showing here. The owners are putting on the show as a "thank you" to all that have used the Minuteman link on the forums. Number one group that has linked and or "liked" Minuteman Trucks comes from FTE. The day is free and will NOT be addvertised except here, so please sighn up early!! Pre reg will get you some parts specials and also a real good chance at a free Dyno pull !!!

If we are succesful, we may get to do this every year!! My goal is to have every New England state represented at the show. Hope we see you ALL here on Saturday November 23!!

Awesome Tom! I've never been to the swap meet there, only the Ford Nationals. Is there a show as well, or is it strictly a swap meet?

Wade, I'll have to check out the details on that, thanks for posting about it!

Honestly, my Centurion isn't dyno-worthy (completely stock), and it's really not even all that good looking at this point. Body work is the last project on the list, so it has typical rot.

That said, I think it'd be pretty cool to drag the Mrs. out, hang out for a while, see some cool trucks, and meet some cool people.

*edit*

Double checked with the better half, and we have no other plans that day. Just registered and looking forward to it!

It's basically just a swap meet with a car corral a couple hundred strong.

Today, was absolutely beautiful for early October! Temps in the low 70s here in Westerly, and mid 50s now. I'd take this all year!

Hate when that happens. Luckily, all of our rooftop HVAC units needed filter changes and PM, and the generator needed some work too. Got a pretty good farmer's tan going here...
