Upstate Bombers First Annual Dyno Day and Sled Pull a Success!
|
|
Congratulations to the Upstate Bombers on their first annual dyno day and sled pull. They filed this report:
* * * The first annual Upstate Bombers Dyno Day and Sled Pull had a great turnout. Brand X Performance from New Hampshire brought their Dynojet 248 and ran 14 trucks. The high horsepower award went to James Kauffman from Bainbridge, NY with his '04 Dodge 2500 at 531 hp and 1015 tq. Second place went to Chad Taylor from Willet, NY with his '02 Dodge 2500 at 475 hp and 876 tq. The Sled Pull was put on in conjunction with the Cincinnatus Fire Department. After the usual extended wait while the gassers pulled (which was good for some carnage and a headache), the diesels pulled. The Chevys semed to rule the day, but the most impressive pull was by fellow TDR member - Michael Garofalo (also known on the TDR Website as Highfinance97) with his '97 Dodge. His TDR Grill Badge was unmistakeable coming down the track. Diesel Street 8500 class was won by Gary Aniska from Scranton, PA with an '07 Chevy; second place was captured by Travis Pushlar from Cazenovia, NY with an '01 Dodge. Diesel OpenStreet 9000 was won by Michael Garofalo of Clarks Summit, PA with a '97 Dodge; second place was captured by Travis Pushlar again with his Dodge.
A great time was had by all, and the diesel trucks put on a great show at the pulls. We hope to see you at the next function of the Upstate Bombers! Peter Toombs Upstate Bombers

TDR Ontario Chapter At It Again!
|
|
The TDR Members in Ontario, Canada have been at it again. In early May, they convened to have a little fun. Thirty-eight trucks were dynoed, and they had over fifty trucks in attendance! Although they did have torrential rain (and a Chevy outdid all of the Dodges thanks to a fresh motor rebuild and nitrous), we hear they had a great time. And best of all, no one broke their trucks!
Thanks for the update, Robert!
For those of you located in Ontario, Canada, contact Robert Schwarzli to become part of the group. He can be reached at tdrontario@gmail.com.

|
|
Hello TDR Ontario! For all those who are interested, on Saturday May 9th the Ontario TDR will be having a Dyno Day and Truck Show at Diesel Doctors in Georgetown, Ontario! Cost is $50.00 cash, and BBQ lunch and drinks will be provided by Diesel Doctors as part of that cost!
Please note though, there will be a max of about 30 trucks able to run on the dyno during the day! If you would like to run your truck on the dyno, please email me at tdrontario@gmail.com to reserve your spot! Please note, this is a first come first serve reservation! The first 30 people to reserve their spot will be the ones who get to run on the dyno! If all 30 trucks are run and we have room at the end of the day for a few more trucks, then we will be able to pick a few more at that time.
If you would just like to attend the event and talk with everyone and watch the trucks run, that is fine as well. We would love to have a show in the parking lot in addition to the dyno runs. Please note, if you are just attending, there will be a $5.00 charge for you meal.
If you have any questions, please let me know! I will do my best to answer them!
