Straightpipe, that was some great racing. We talked to you guys last night, you raced my brother in law with the white regular cab duramax towards the end. How is goldmax doing she sure sounded rough after that last run.

Big thanks to everyone who made it and to those who competed. The event was a huge success despite the problems we had with the dyno and everything. We apologize that everything lasted till 4am but we will have that fixed next year with a dedicated diesel only weekend without the bracket cars mixing in so we can actually get done at a reasonable hour when the crowd is still there so we can do a big awards ceremony and get ya'll some recognition. We really appreciate ya'll making the drive down here for the event. We are already planning the event for next year and will possibly be trying to host 2. One in April and one in September. We will keep ya'll posted

I'm glad somebody knows what all goes into it haha. We were very happy with the turnout we just wish we had rented out the track so we could have gotten done earlier so we could get ya'll some recognition in the awards ceremony.

I'm working on getting a full list of all of the winners together.

I apologize that some names are missing at the moment from the results list. We finished up racing about 330am and I was a little brain dead. I got everybody's names on their awards certificates and on the payouts but forgot to write them down to announce on here. I have contacted the 2 winners of the heads up class and will have their names and truck info soon. Thanks to everyone who came out and competed. Once again we apologize the races ran so late and we didn't get to have a proper awards ceremony and get everyone's pictures. We will have that sorted out for the next event so we can get the winners some recognition.
