Southern Truck Shootout

Ditto my friend. I am looking forward to the entire weekend, meeting new friends, seeing some fast trucks and doing a little racing. I am doing a little exhaust and suspension work on the truck and plan to be done Thansgiving weekend. That way I can get the bugs worked out at my local track the weekend before and not on the day of the shootout. :xfings:

I've had a couple folks mention their concern of not having a shot in a full second index.
Here's a compromise for you all. If there are enough trucks participating to have at least a 16 truck field in 6 index classes PLUS the quick 16 and handicap class, then I will do it. Sound fair? Otherwise, it stays the way it is and you better bring your "A" game.

Oh and BTW...qualifying passes will be NO TIME and you will not get a slip for them. This eliminates sandbagging and bitching along the way. When you see the ladder for your timeslot and who you're racing first round, that's where you'll be! And I will pair you with your closest competitor each round. About as fair as I can make it.

IF you want to get a few T&T passes in, that's fine with me. Your qualifying times will determine what field you go into. You won't have to guess as we will have the times in the tower. You just won't get a slip and the timing boards will be off. Just to make it more interesting and fair. I recommend getting your truck dialed in as best you can before the event and not wait until the day of.

J/k I am not fast enough to drive 2.5 hours for some runs the weekend before, it'll be fine.
Looks like the list of attendees is GROWING!!!

I'm still putting mine together so I'll probably be in the same boat as you. (if I even race. The event will likely consume all my time)
It looks like it could be close to 100 trucks or so.
Everyone will need to bring cash the day of the race. Gate/tech fees are $25 and it's $20 to run. Spectators and crew are $10 each. I am NOT taking any money before race day (aside from sponsors) so it will all be done the day of the event.
