Don't think 420 will do for the big dawg, but I was told there will be some sort of award for guys in the regular dyno for closes to (I believe) 3,4,5 and 600HP don't quote me on that right now though

You know Mike, I know for a fact that the BIG DAWG (http://www.bigdawgdyno.com) Dyno has always been held in North Texas. At least for the last 5 or 6 years.

This year the Central Texas, and Dallas area Diesel clubs are getting together thus it being a "texas rally"

Oddlyy enough if you go to www.BigDawgDyno.com (http://www.bigdawgdyno.com) it just happens to forward to SMDiesel Performance, the original and continuing host of the Big Dawg Dyno

Not a problem on your part. You were just relaying info.

The problem comes in that BIG DAWG is the dyno event that I sponsor and have hosted, this event should have never used the name.

At the BullyDog/ODRA event this last weekend I had numerous guys come up to me inquiring about my dyno event in central texas. Hence me making mention of this little oversight on their part.

Dave @ BD Power has been Generous enough to sponsor the closest to 350HP, 500HP and 650HP classes with BD Gift Certificates in the amount of:

$200-650HP
$150-500HP
$100-350HP

If yall are looking at buying power parts you need to give Dave @ BD a call they carry everything from tuners, exhausts, to turbos, and intercoolers. You can call him Toll Free @ 800-887-5030 ext... 105

Guys we need more trucks to sign up for the Big Dawg. No one will know who is registered till the event but we need at least 10 trucks to do the event and we are still a few shy. Com'on there is a lot of cash and prizes at stake there's gotta be some outta towners needing to come down for the Texas hospitality and best of all $$$$$$$$. Don't miss this one.

The event Sunday also starts at 9am not the previous 12 noon as stated.
