Driver #18: Jordan Molenaar

Jordan Molnar, another driver from Canada, has been into diesel trucks since 2005 and has been wrenching and tuning through his own personal business since 2013. Jordan competes in local sled pulling and drag racing events and looks to broaden his horizons at this year’s Ultimate Callout Challenge qualifier.

The truck him and his team is bringing has a best of 952-horsepower and a best quarter-mile time of 11.20-seconds. With a proven reliable and powerful setup, Jordan is aiming to bring the prize back to Canada.

No stranger to sled pulling, Molenaar plans on trusting his experience in the competition.

Driver #19: Kyle Vlasak

Building trucks since 2003 and owning his own diesel shop, Vlasak Performance, since 2007, Kyle Vlasak is taking on the challenge. Vlasak’s Cummins-Powered 2009 Dodge Ram, that was acquired just a week after the 2017 UCC, will be ready for a dogfight.

For a new set of lungs Vlasak has turned to Stainless Diesel for a set of triple-turbochargers. That should be plenty of forced air to near the podium of the dyno. Will Vlasak have what it takes to make it to the top step?

In what seems to be a mystery build, with no complete pictures, you can tell Vlasak is taking this competition serious leaving nothing but a seat and a steering wheel in the cab.

Driver #20 Tyrel Triesch

Happy to crack the 1,000-horsepower barrier, Triesch and Co. look forward to putting down some even greater numbers and are excited to compete with the best in the business in the Ultimate Callout Challenge Qualifier.

Will this quad-cab long bed have enough ponies in the tank to keep up with the rest of the field?

Driver #21- Mathieu Aubin

Traveling from Quebec, Canada, Mathieu Aubin, plans to bring his 2007 GMC Sierra to the UCC Qualifier. Aubin not only strives for horsepower and torque, but he also wrenches on his own time as a field diesel mechanic back home. Weighing in at only 4,600 pounds, Aubin’s Sierra is coming with a serious power plant.

A 7.1 Stroker LML Duramax engine will thunder this truck down the track and hopefully shoot team Canada to the top step come May. Aubin want’s to make this a fun learning experience, but he’s also coming for blood.

In probably one of the most “race-ready” trims, Aubin’s Duramax-powered GM truck is light and ready to haul the mail.

Driver #22- Joshua McCormack

A 26-year-old diesel fanatic by the name of Josh McCormack is joining the Ultimate Callout Challenge qualifier field. Josh has been into diesel trucks since his teenage years being around tractor pulling. After joining the military and being stationed in California, Josh has made friends with Power Driven Diesel.

After crewing with them last year, Josh looks to make a name for himself with his own build. Josh is piloting his 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 that is powered by a p-pump 24-valve Cummins. With the help of Power-Driven Diesel, Quality Diesel Performance, FASS Fuel Systems, Fleece Performance, Keating Machine, Scheid Diesel, BD Diesel, Yukon Gear and Axle, and Fluidampr Josh looks to power his way to victory in May.
