not sure, quick read of their general info says gates open at 8 am, Sunday, but I will most likely call them in a bit to see when they do in fact open, tempted to try to get there early to get a good spot, and take full advantage of the cost for entry, ie, stay all day/ night till its over. You thinking of running at all? bracket style, as long as you can keep your times close, you could win........ or bring down an old set of tires and go for the burnout win.

Mikmaze the 13 is the us diesel truckin nationals. are they going to let our trucks in? I thought this was the whole reason for the show yesterday. kast year there were 144 diesel pickups at the truckin nationals and the way I understood it they were giving us our own day to make more room for the big trucks on the 13. But I could be wrong.
