Good morning CTers! Welcome to Monday!!!

Sure was good to see a lot of you up here on Saturday for Dyno Day II. Wish I had more time to chat with everyone, but keeping things rolling is a full time job. LOL. I have the blisters to prove it. You guys sure make all the work worth it. It was bigger than last year, so you know where the expectations go from here !!!

Thanks again for all the support you guys give for this event. We wouldnt be planning Dyno Day III without you!!

Good Afternoon,


Wade great job at Dyno Day 2. Wife and I really enjoyed it! It was great to get a baseline dyno run in preps for upcoming injector and turbo replacement. Hope to get between 375 - 400 HP.


Take Care,
Jim

It was great to meet you Jim. Nice to put a face to it all. So does this mean you'll be making your "Modified Diesel" debut at next years Dyno Day?

And YES you read that correct. Thanks to all of the support from you guys, we are begging the plans for Dyno Day III !!!!

So once again, thank you all for taking the time to come up and enjoy the festivities here. It really is a treat for me to see you all.


Miles...........363 days to get the truck in dyno shape

Final standings and dyno #'s and pictures should be up soon. If you guys have any pics or video you wouln't mind sharing, please send them to my email. (in my sig)

Shawn from VA was nice enough to post up some of his Dyno Day pics. You guys should check them out in the Dyno Day II thread. Very cool.

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/13...l#post14687752

Thanks Shawn


I know some of the videos are up on our Facebook page as well.

Please, take a moment and "Like" Dyno Day II on our website. Then we can do it a little bit bigger and a little bit louder next year.

Thanks Justin! Saw the ENT doctor out here on monday, things are worse off that I though, surgery is scheduled for next week on Wednesday. Apparently waiting to long and having to re break the nose isn't a factor when they go to reset it at this point, doctor says recover time will be the same either way. I guess there is cartilage out of place to that needs to be lifted up and put back into place, as well as putting all the bones back into place, I am glad they are going to know me out for this! Be safe everyone!

That's rough Kyle, good luck.

Had a good time yesterday at work. Was able to get one of our local reserve units to bring some equipment out to Ellis Tech.







Shame we couldn't get this thing for Dyno Day!

It's called a PLS. 10-wheel-drive and powered by a 600 HP C15 ACERT. This one has a ECHU system that can pick up a shipping container as well as the hook that requires a flat rack. Three quarters of a million dollars to buy and gets around 2 MPG.

Sadly they wouldn't let me drive it.
