Good luck to you man! I hope you get in! I'll make sure to vote for guys I know from the forum!
I could not agree more Steve. It seems like every year it is not the truck with the highest dyno# that wins, rather the one who can place in the middle of the pack each event and keep his truck together through all the events.
Also, I don't understand why a lot of the guys change so much RIGHT before the event
. I know whenever I change stuff on my truck there's always a few bugs to work out, if I had a strong truck and was headed to the DPC I would leave it alone beforehand.
I received an email as well yesterday. No plans of changing anything between now and then. Now to get it shined up for some pictures.
I would like to see Caleb Baker with Blackout Performance go compete! He would give everyone a run for there money! He has the most solid truck ive seen as far as reliability goes.
Haha:thumb:. I'll haul your truck out there on a trailer, and we'll count on at least one of our two trucks to still be running to tow the other one back!
Because you don't know you are going till 2 weeks prior. Also, for guy in the northern states, they haven't run their trucks in a few months and may have undergone modifications over the winter when there is fewer events and more free time. The hardest part of this event is tuning for the altitude in Denver. Even the big triples dont spool as fast. Then testing prior to the event, most people break stuff within days of leaving, it's Murphys law. You have to have a lot of determination and good credit...I could not agree more Steve.

Solid points. It wasn't a shot at anyone Tim. I still feel like a built motor and some reasonably sized twins could be a threat when everyone else starts having issues. A 700horse twin setup is going to hold together a lot longer than an outrageous 1200hp setup or a big single like yours. I think triples will probably have a good showing for the same reason.
Congrats Andrew and Eric. I hope to be voted in just as much as you guys. We at custom auto strive to be different with our trucks and turbo configurations. The single cab is coming together and I will post more pics on the latest and greatest thread. Last years loss at dpc hurt but had nothing to do with reliability of the truck. Hope to see a d max win regardless.:thumb:
My dodge buddy here in PHX got a letter to go, well see if his single 64mm can make it to the final round of voting.
It's been proven last year a reliable 1200hp twinned ford will take the cake....700hp isn't gonna cut it. Elite Diesel knew what they were doing. I think they will come out strong again this year.
