Sled Pull Southern Calif. Sept. 19th

Hey everyone, this is my first post on this site but I've been around a number of the boards for years.

Anyway, I have a date secured for the sled pull here in Southern California. It is actually going to be on Sunday Sept. 19th instead of the 18th.The location is the Agua Dulce Airpark in Agua Dulce, CA. Its about 25 minutes north of Valencia and 25 minutes south of Palmdale off the 14 fwy. There will be overnight dry camping on site for those that want to get in a day ahead of time. Plenty of room for as many RV's as want to attend. I would encourage coming Saturday and spending the evening there. Good chance to catch up with everyone and meet some new friends. I have a decent number of guys who have already committed to coming, anyone else who is interested start speaking up and spread the word. The timing of the event makes it ideal as a warm up for Tulare.

This will be an All Brands Diesel event including show and shine, vendors, sled pull, BBQ etc. This will be a first event of its kind for Southern California as far as I know. I'm not aware of any sled pulls South of Tulare, so plan on coming on out for a full day of Diesel activities. For those who have never attended a sled pull, you will surely be impressed.

If all goes as planned, the pullers from central/northern Cal. should see some other participants besides the usual. Southern California is powerstroke country, and the performance shops planning to attend should bring a decent Ford contigent with them. That is good for everyone. There is also serious interest from a performance manuf. as a title sponsor, this could be the chance for the Chevy guys to shine.

The Dmax guys are showing a lot of interest in this on other boards, so be sure to make it out to remind them who the top dog is.

I will be continually updating with information as it becomes available. Go here for location and some other info on the venue.

This post hasn't got any play over here, I guess the event is out of most of these members range. But for those interested, be advised the venue has been changed. Go here for all the new info. The event is shaping up to be a good one.

The information is up on Willow Springs website, check it out -
Be sure to check out the photo gallery too - thanks Brian.

I can't afford to particpate in the pulls (retired), but I will try to attend as a spectator and maybe static display

Its going to be a good one Grey Wolf. You have to come as close as you are. I think you may know Bob Horrell, he is doing the tractor work on the course. It should be lots of fun. I hope everybody else on this board in California knows about this. This should be the big Diesel pull event of the year in California, especially since Tulare isn't happening. We have good payout for the modified classes too. I will be announcing official purses soon.
