Okay Guys, bear with me.

First and Foremost I would like to thank all of our sponsors that made this happen.

American Racing Technologys
Cody, David, Monte, Matt, Chris. Your facility is always flawless and we can't thank you enough for providing us a place to have such a great time and event. You guys are second to none.

Hamilton Diesel Services
Zach, Alex, and crew
Thank you for the always BAD AZZ trophys and prizes. You guys always help us put on a top notch show with all the hard work and prizes you provide us. I can't say enough to convey my gratitude.

Rollin Smoke Diesel
James.
Thank you so much for coming in this year and really providing alot of money and prizes for all aspects of our event. Sponsors like you are one in a million, thank you for all you did.

Valair Clutch
Dan, Kevin, JD
Thank you so much for not only providing fantastic prizes, but for always being there when I need you. In my book there is nothing that can compare to your clutches and customer service. I can never thank you enough for all you have done for myself and the diesel community. My hat is off to you.

West Texas Diesel Performance
Cody, and Crew
Thank you so much for stepping in and providing fantastic prizes and money. You guys rolled in with all the class and professionalizm that you would expect from the top names in the industry. You guys did not disappoint in any way. I can't thank you enough for your constant communication and tireless support. And above all, thank you for your patients with me.

FleetFilter
Bryan and (insert name here cuz I'm the worst host ever!!)
I can't tell you how much you saved my butt. I needed a sponsor to cover something that most companys would rather not. But you stepped in on extemely short notice and not only came through, but provided over the top prizes and support for us. I have no words to thank you enough.

BD Diesel Performance
Dave
Every year you provide us with fantastic prizes and support. Once again, you prove to be another company that deserves all the props in the world for yet again helping us make a great event happen. Your the best.

Industrial Injection
Thank you for stepping and providing an awsome prize well worth noting. I realize that the short notice I provided limited you, and that was my fault. But none the less, thank you for being a leader in diesel performance and helping us put on a great event.

The Three Allen Miracles March of Dimes Team
Bobbie, Julie, Kimberly, and the entire team. Without you, we could have never pulled an event like this off. Thank you for your organization that only WOMEN can provide. LOL Thank you for all the great food, help with registration and support. No words can justify my gratitude, but I will spend my life doing my best to try. I promise.

Death Row Inmates
To all my guys, for two days, you worked tirelessly and unfailingly. I am extremely proud of the jobs you guys did, and I am even more proud to call you my family. You guys provide sooooo much more than just help for an event. You guys are there every time I need you. There is no way I can repay your for the help, support, and sanity you guys provide me. Not only for this event, but in my everyday life. You guys are nothing short of saints. Thank you so much.



Last,but not least, I would like to thank EVERYONE who made it out to the event. This thing was HUGE!!!! And aside from a few hicups, everything went very well. Thank you very, very much. And we look forward to seeing you next year.

Our most sincere thanks from

Central Texas Diesel and Death Row Diesel

I Cody, personally want to thank all of you for your patients, and understanding. It didn't go as smooth as we had all hoped. But you guys waited it out, and showed over the top class and sportsmanship. Thank you VERY, VERY much.

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

Also, I would like to thank all of the people that provided me with good or bad feedback. It was ALL noted and I will do my best to use the information wisely.

Finally, the few things that will not cease to bother me.

The lady that expressed her unhappyness about the show and shine results. I'm very sorry that you think the judges I provided were biased and played favorites. But it couldn't be farther from the truth. The guys I had do it knew NONE of the competitors, and they did the best they could with the criteria and info I provided them. I'm sorry you felt cheated, but it was done as fair as I could do it.

The gentleman, that wanted to run on Sunday, and was in the process of taking the duals off. I can't tell you how sorry I am you didn't get to run. And I'm sorry you felt that you wasted your time for 2 days. We ran all the trucks we could, and if I didn't care, I wouldn't have even asked if there was a chance you could run. But you saw me do it. Even though the end result was you could not, and you were angry with me, I still feel bad. I want everyone to have a chance. But with over 130 trucks wanting to hit the rollers, I did the best I could. I hope you can forgive me and give me another shot to provide you with every opportunity to dyno your truck next year.


For all the rest of the run results, we are working on getting it converted from hand written to the computer and should have it posted on CentralTexasDiesel.com later this week.

And one last thing. Thank you to

FleetFilter.com for all the filters and stickers given away as door prizes

Geno's Garage for your gift certificates as door prizes.

TDR for your badges, stickers provided as door prizes.



I forgot to address Geno's Garage, and TDR as sponsors. PLEASE PLEASE forgive me.

Geno's Garage.
You guys have been with us from the start. Every year you provide us with great prizes to be won. I was actually lucky enough to win one last year. Every time without hesitation, you guys are on board with us. Thank you so very much for your support.



TDR
I believe that the organization that you started is what spawned this whole event. Without your support over the years, none of this would have happened. For help like that, there are no words..........But thank you from all of us.

Again, Bryan, from Fleet Filter, I already got ya, but thank you again.

 

sounds like it was a great event this year wish I could of made it again this year but few things happened that kept me away. Hopefully next year I can make it. Did you get any video of any of the runs or anything?

 

Yall missed a good one. Lots of fun and lots of trucks. RubberDuck ran my truck on the dyno for me and was able to get 442hp and 852tq out of my truck. Not bad concidering I dont even have $1500 in it. Had a great time and can't thank the sponsors enough. The Deathrow Diesel crew was hard at it all weekend and RubberDuck is one hell of a guy to do what he did on Sunday night for my buddy. Great turn out and will definately be there for it again next year.

 

Rubber Duck is a saint. IMO We all could learn something from Cody.

 

A BIG THANKS goes to go you guys Cody for pulling off such a great event. I'll make the drive down next year (if the wife doesn't schedule a vacation around the event again )

Some kid was arrested and hauled off to jail during the burnout contest. What was illegal about this organized burnout contest? Why was he arrested?
