Yup, Fayetteville, NC. The track's outside the new I95 bypass, just off HWY 87 I think it is. The other slip's from the Dunn/Benson track just up the road outside of Benson, NC
Cool. You live in Fayetteville? Ever check out the fireantz games? Not sure if your into hockey or not, but they put on quite a production there. They get some good crowds too.

you tried a dyno jet??? those seem to give the most accurate numbers.
Drew, I'm just recently figuring out how to bypass my throttle position sensor so I can dyno in overdrive starting at 40mph.

The first time I dyno'ed a couple of years ago, My turbo tried ingesting my TAG.

The one time I did get some numbers, I didn't have the OD thing sorted and it was the 3000# roller dynojet 48C. Not as much load as we'd like.

December of last year, after 16 other trucks, I got on the coveted Dynojet 48H (4000# roller) . . . . .. . .and it broke. Crap!
Just as well, they didn't have the proper tach mount to get around the frame cross-member under the 1st gens so they'd have had to calculate the torque which blows as far as I'm concerned. Screw it.

The track says it best I reckon.

Hockey? Nah, With most sports as such, the dang ball invariably hits me in the head. I hear those pucks can kill!!

I found a calculator to equate track times to approx HP and I got this useing 7000# vehicle weight "Trap Speed Method: approx. 446 HP
ET Method: approx. 487 HP"

Will do. When I read that, the first think I thought of was the Blues Brothers, "We're on a mission from god." Not sure why......

Just got done lookin at a 93 like yours (but kinda wore out and rusty) but would like to build a older year So then i would have the best of both worlds old and new. Awsome you kept all the paperwork from the truck. Made me think my new one wasnt that expensive when compared to yours $28000 in 1993 expensive,anyway cool rig!!
