Lavon came out w/ 2nd place in the sled pull.

I'm sure 2nd place overall is a close race

I would think Jesse has 2nd pretty easily.

Idk I have a different opinion on dpc. I respect the fact that it's the one event where a select few trucks compete and the winner comes out after proving themselves after a few days of beating the truck.

The one thing that sucks about it, is the trucks that are voted in are just because of fan based voting. This year the trucks have been awesome. But if you really wanted to duke it out with the best trucks out there, there sure would be some other trucks in the mix. That's just the one flaw.

I wish there was an event that was a true one where you have the best trucks duking it out for the title of best truck.

How bout trucks that aren't shop trucks?

Have a couple regional meets with more trucks. Winners advance to final dpc in co. Previous year winner gets a bye to final round. It might be safe to say most trucks will have some sort of affiliation to a shop.

That's the type of thing I'm saying. But honestly I think it should be some where with out the crazy elevation. There's no point to the elevation. You're talking about turbo charged trucks that make power based off of turbo charged systems. Why not let them compete in an environment that they actually can perform how they're tuned to.

Shop truck or not. If it's a stout truck it deserves to be in the mix. Honestly most of the trucks out there that are all out nasty are shop trucks. Lavons truck is pretty much a fire punk shop truck. It's just not wrapped in decals like the mpd 6.7 is.

So Lavon officially won.. haven't heard who got 2nd yet

If you could get it how dpc is it would sure be profitable.... You know how much money they make off this event that is strictly for their magazine?.....

patricku47 · May 7, 2015

Yeah, I saw that on compd. I hope Jesse can sneak into second place. There were some seriously stout trucks this year, and the Ford team really looked good!

03cody · May 7, 2015

All I'm saying is that central il is low elevation which is good. We have a track within 20 min of me....even though it's only 1/8th mile, and I have a patch of dirt just long enough for a sled pull........but I'm just sayin

Looks like Rick second and Jesse third

bigrpowr · May 7, 2015

awesome for jesse. jd would have been 2nd or 3rd i think.

Morfael · May 7, 2015

I got a comment deleted on Facebook when I corrected someone about Lavon being the first back to back winner lol. Cummins guys are so touchy...

slc dzl · May 8, 2015

Looks like jesse got 3rd.
Congrats to him and that amazing truck.

Jesse and JD KICKED ASS. The sled pull was so much fun, and my goal for DPC was to come out and put 10ft on second place. Guess I'll settle for 17ft..

Wish JD and I hadn't had such a tough week. I gave him my tow rig tonight to get his truck back to Fort Collins and I'll pick it up heading home tomorrow.

Feels good to street drive my truck again. Thanks for everyone who had our backs.
