Couldn't tell very good from the pulling vid of the dorf but it didn't look like he had a drop receiver? So his hitch height must've been crazy high. Do they not in force any hitch rules for the sled pull?

if the ford did one thing, it proved that you dont need alot of power to win diesel power challenge. :roflmao: run some 35's and get the suspension setup perfect
suspension setup is my specialty
. nothing a change in shock valving cant handle. Ill be on coilovers by then as well
Yeah - I have a Dmax - bought it new in 2006, installed compounds on it in April of 2008, currently buttoning up details on the SAS swap - plus some other upgrades along the way.
super diesel

26" max height was enforced. I was standing by there when they were checking them.
Not enough time. We spent the whole week tuning on the fly. Ben was efi lived to death. We were so concerned with making the turbo light at this altitude we didnt have time to find out how to best do that and get good mileage too...cruise rpm is the same as spool rpm
I will say, it became pretty obvious that Motorsports nozzles are the way to go for big flow and mileage tuning too
^ Thats funny stuff. lol
Pure Performance.
I really feel like you're upset because the dpc is designed to test each truck for how well rounded it is, as well as the driver. The DPC was originally to show what people could do to their DAILY DRIVEN truck. You're all bent outta shape that these trucks aren't competition built, one trick ponies? I think a truck you can have fun with on the street is WAY cooler than some truck that gets trailered to the track... Just not for me.
I think next year, they oughta pull that trailer up and over the passes. I know there were a couple of trucks this year that would have burned down trying to do that.
i would rather see who has the strongest, fastest diesel truck out there. If i wanted to see daily driven trucks i would stick to youtube and the local track. If they want to make it an event for "daily drivers" they should start with a whole lot more competitiors. just my .02
These are interesting. Looks to me like Eric knows how to set up a truck, and drive it too.
