BAD COMPANY
Jan 20 2009
BAD COMPANY is owned by Chase Trucking of Interlaken, New York in the Finger Lakes District. Chase Trucking purchased the former John Samlock “Lone Wolf” in 2002 and retired the cab-over International. The team then converted much of the technology to use in BAD COMPANY.
Because there are very few Big Rigs pulls in the state of New York, the truck must make a very long trip in order to participate regularly with the Series. John Chase is the driver of BAD COMPANY which was re-fitted with a V-12 71 Detroit during the summer of 2008. The engine was one of the original motors from the Andy Trought Team from New Jersey and was retrofitted by Castner Performance in Penn Yan, New York. The truck now has twin turbo chargers and made a test pass at Whitney Point, New York and the end of July, 2008. And then at the Fonda Fair in Fonda, New York on Labor Day, the Peterbilt had a excellent run to finish 2nd in that ‘Six Pack” event. BAD COMPANY is expected to participate at more events in 2009.
Chase Trucking owns a fleet of trucks that are used in the garbage hauling business in and out of metro New York City.
