Here is a definite possibility for a summer event - It will have something for everyone Drag Racing, Truck Pulling, and Dyno Contest all in one (spread out over 2-3 days). St. Joseph, Mo. should be less than 5-6hr drive for just about everyone.
Quote Below from St. Joe Diesel:
We are currently working on having a 3 day event in the St. Joseph and Osborn MO area. We will be having a Dyno Day, Drag race, and a Sled pulling event. There is going to be some serious money involved as many people are donating to make this thing happen.
Some of the details so far.
The Dyno Day will be at St. Joseph Diesel Inc.
The Drag race and sled event will be held at the U.S. 36 Speedway in Osborn, MO
The drag race will have a diesel truck class along with other classes of rails, cars, and whatever else they decide.
The Sled event will feature the Outlaw Truck and Tractors with the diesel trucks.
It is going to be an awsome event, I will keep everything updated as I get info. This will include exact Dates and Times, Prize money, and Rules.
Thanks from all of us at St. Joseph Diesel Inc.
