Diesel Power Challenge results

OK, the pouting is complete, so...... CONGRATS DIMITRI!!!! Well deserved brother! You brought a true powerhouse and did what you had to do to earn the win. You and the crew were great competitors and more important, great guys.
CONGRATS DUSTIN!!! That was really a solid, consistent, performance, and I think your truck above all others, represents the all around daily driver/power house that alot of guys strive for. Congrats to your wife and crew as well. Great people.
Also, a couple quick congrats to Brian Jelich with the most impressive powerstoke I've ever seen, and Brian Parker with his beast of a Dodge! I was there when Brian was told the victory was his, and again when he was told that a mistake had been made. In the end, under those circumstances, he handled the situation better than most of us would have.
Congrats guys!


See ya at The Edge Dimitri.....you better find room for a third turbo

Dimitri will find room for a third charger but there's no way it will be under the hood. The nitrous lines are in the way

It was BS. And the whole not enforcing rules just to move the event along was BS as well.

Will be nice when we can find out where everyone placed in each event. As far as enforcing the rules, that is not a new issue with this event. And I for one think it is the event's biggest short coming. You can't change or bend the rules during the event because it is not longer fair to all the competitors. The original intent of the event is to fine and showcase the best all around diesel trucks in the country. It has become way more than that. I do not agree that equipment changes should be allowed. No tire changes, no adding weight, no anything other than tuning, suspension adjustments and tire pressure change should be allowed. Using torque as the only part of a dyno test is stupid. Use the hp as well in some fashion. I think adding the two for a number is the best, incase of a tie use the torque number if you as a tie breaker. If I had my way NOS would not be allowed either, but that would never fly.
