:doh:
Already didoke: Welcome to the site, and I look forward to meeting you at a pull or race.
So all there is left is dual CP3's and a little motor work:rockwoot:
If I where you guys I would problably start another thread and show these guys that you have a commited group to make this happen.Help try and find a reasonable sled,have guys show the commitment.Listen NADM wants to pull they just have to make sure somebody doesnt lose there ass in the process.Make it happen guys.I am wondering if we need to have some sort of meeting/get together to talk about this, and maybe get a better idea on the interest there is. We all know there is a huge interest for sled pulling and drag racing out here, but how many are serious about it. Does anyone have an idea of what we could do?
I just spoke with united pullers and there scedual is not set in stone this early but it looks like the sled will be availible 8/8/09.
Drags on Friday and sled on Saturday sounds good - is there somewhere close to the track or where United has pulls?
What about on Sept 5?

Last year they did the pulls inside the oval track, that way there i seating for spectators. That other organization that is no longer in business also had their pulls for the national event in the middle of the oval track. I think it worked out well, and I think that is where they do the monster trucks also. I posted another thread for the purpose of getting people out, to see what kind of commitment we can get.

Guys because of last year's low truck count at the RMR they are not too excited about adding sled pulling -

So what do you guys need from the locals? I'm sure the people that are serious from Utah and Idaho that want this event here will do some things. Let us know how we can help and we will.
and i am doing it with a stock motor and stock single cp3 oke:
Start by trying to answer sleddies ?'s.I am all for you guys.Get him his answers and work off of that---good luck guys,make it happen.X2... Let us know, and we will do our best to deliver. I seemed to have come up with quite a bit of free time recently due to a lay off at my job, so I have plenty of time to do some leg work.
are you pulling or racing? pulling you wouldnt be in the same class as matt with your twins
Smokin, all very good points.
A couple questions- how many Diesel trucks did August Blackout and the other 2 events have pulling last year, on the same date? Anyone on this site go to any of the events?
Do any of you know of other pulls within, say 500-1000 miles away on those two dates?
Rules, keep in mind our turbo rule is 2.6 even, the PLUG is 2.65, meaning, if the plug goes in, you are wayyy illegal. Out of hundreds of 2.6 turbos checked, we only ran into one that was touch and go last year on the 2.65 plug. Not having seen the turbo in question, or the plug, I can't comment on what happened.
However, we will do everything we can to help you guys understand why we have the rules we do in place.
Now, if "a bunch of expensive parts" means safety equipment, I would suggest, if you are serious, to download the rules and study the classes carefully. Safety equipment goes up as HP and rpm goes up.
We take safety very seriously, regardless of whether the truck drives on the street, and only pulls a couple times a year. 700HP is 700Hp, on the street or on the track.
If you have any questions, feel free to pm.
