Following the success of the inaugural Ultimate Callout Challenge (UCC) in Salt Lake City last year, the second-annual event brought 31 turbodiesel truck builders to Indianapolis for another noholds-barred competition measuring horsepower and torque, quarter-mile times and sled-pull performances.

Defending UCC champion and AMSOIL-sponsored diesel builder Lavon Miller of Firepunk Diesel entered the competition with another title on his mind, and with an impressive winning time of 8.63 seconds in the drag race. Miller bagged a second-place finish in the dyno competition and a sixth-place finish in the sled pull. He once again took the top overall score for the championship. Pretty fricken awesome eh?

Shawn Baca of Industrial Injection won the dyno competition with shocking 2447/3311 (hp/torque) numbers and finished 13th overall, while Todd Welch of Power Driven Diesel earned the win in the sled-pull competition with a distance of 321.02 feet, finishing 17th overall.
