They let the 08 Super Duty run in the tuned diesel class just for fun and he actually got to 257 feet. It was all Dodges in the tuned class. One the fuel pump ran over causing a fire and a bunch of running people, another one had water issues, one blew a tranny line, turbo puked on another one. It made me smile a little
Sounds like a good time Matt, and a nice showing for a Ford in a Dodge dominated class.

That's nice of him. My dad asked me to go to the truck pull with him last night and I was going to pay for us since Fathers Day and his birthday are the same day. I drove to his house, stopped at gas station for some drinks and when we got to the fair grounds I realized I didn't have any cash, just my card.

No I know better than that, it's dripping and the the drip is getting worse. I think it may be coming from the filter or a lose hose fitting.

I found my hyrdraulic leak and I found the start of another one I also figured out it's because someone else did an upgrade but did a half *** job when they did it. Now I get to pull the engine and seat pan off to fix it and have all new hard and soft lines made but it will be right and look like it came from Deere when I am done with it.

It is too hot to play golf so my son wanted to go swimming. And I decided to detail my stepdads 2nd bike.

Got my front speakers in after work... sound pretty good. My dad sounds like he wants to help me do the system install in August. He majored in electric wiring and crap in college
