I wasn't trying to start a pissing match, and to be honest I don't think a shop owned truck should be in it. It is for the baddest of the road driven trucks. Or at least that is the way I ways seen it. No I didn't build mine, but I am not sponsored either. I don't have an issue if Jarod was allowed in cause he owns his trucks, and I am sure not built for free.
Dan, this wasn't a stab at you. You own your truck too and Custom Auto is doing the work on it. I do have an issue with trucks built and only built to compete. Like Shilo's, I don't think it has ever been on the track, towed anything or driven on the street often. I know his name is on the registration but pretty sure custom auto owns it. The dually in 2012 was owned by them, that is why it is still at the shop. The driver (name escapes me) said if he wanted to keep it he had to pay for the work done to it.

So he built a truck and couldn't pay for it....LOL wtf is wrong with ppl

Oil Field Trash · Feb 21, 2014

No he was just a driver. If he wanted to actually be his he would have to buy it.

Sent while I probably should be doing something productive.

Figured this was worth a shot since you guys have what fords you want figured out. My buddy Joel is in the running with his dodge. True daily driven street truck, built by him and his brother. Truck is well tested and runs strong with ball bearing compounds. He's number 11. Hoping we can get him a few more votes. Thanks

No Custom Auto built it, if he wanted to keep it when he left to H&S he had to pay. Which tells me it was never his.

I really wish we(the ford camp) could have a crazy built shop truck but be "owned" by somebody that wasn't affilated with a shop. It would just be nice to do the same sh!t that they do. But its been awesome winning the last 2 years by following the rules and not looking for loopholes!

Yeah, if I were to do, what custom auto is doing, myself, it would look like absolute GARBAGE! And I think it's fair to have a truck built by a shop, it's not "backyard diesel challange" hahaha I dunno... If it's fast and makes power why not eh?!?? Hahaha

Why did Dmitri's trucks go with him when he left?

I don't know what happened between them, nor do I really care. He did all the work on them and I bet for the business he brought in they called it a wash.
DPC can let in who they want, I just don't like how they make rules then enforce some and not others. That is how it looks to me, I can be wrong.

I still do not understand why they would pick a driver that had supposedly never towed a trailer before.

Thanks for the good read boys!!!

I stay neutral in the subject!

Noticed Ryan's truck says 1101 hp beside it!! That's one more hp than I claimed!!!

Uh.... No comment. You have no duck in this hunt. If we were all throwing out numbers on hopes and dreams I would say my truck makes 800. But I can't do that until it is proven. Period
