2009 TS Performance Outlaw Event - Back To Bowling Green

Dave Dunbar's mobile dyno was up and running from early morning until sunset.

The highest horsepower fuel-only truck at the event ended up being this silver common-rail Dodge with 1,027 hp.

The Diesel Site was on hand showcasing its Pulse, Adrenaline, and Overdrive (center) model high-pressure oil pumps and hardware for the 7.3L Power Stroke.

South Bend Clutch hauled its mud bogger down from Mishawaka, Indiana. With twin turbos, 4BT Cummins power, and plenty of nitrous, we salivated at the thought of seeing it in action.

The sled pull action started around 7 p.m. And, with literally hundreds of trucks signed up to hook to the sled, the action lasted deep into the night--or should we say morning? How about 4 a.m.? Seen here is Ryan Whalen's Cumminzed Out 3.0-inch-diameter inducer truck helping get the action started.

It goes without saying that Cummins-powered trucks dominate most diesel competitions. But the engine builder known to "overbuild and underrate" had some unique and appealing representation at this year's event.

Nathan Thornley's Ridin' Dirty 3.0 truck was running strong, but a blown intercooler boot at the end of his pull put an abrupt stop to the foot-by-foot progress his Duramax was making.

The TS Performance sled pull was also the long-awaited debut for Scheid Diesel's new Modified truck. The insane triple-turbo'd Cummins sported an inline 12-cylinder P-pump, a fiberglass body, full-tube chassis frame, and an awesome paintjob. Piloted by Kent Crowder, the truck had a few steering woes on its inaugural pull but still managed to yank the sled 252 feet.

Back this year with a new black and silver paintjob, Shane Kellogg's Gotta Have It took the win in the Modified class with a 302-foot pull.
