    Default Florida Diesel Truck Sled Pulls

    Okay Guys and Gals. The Florida Diesel Truck Club is looking to sponsor an ALL DIESEL sled pull. No gassers will be allowed to pull at this event. The event will take place on a Saturday in the early afternoon, early enough to bring the family. What we would like to know is, who would be interested in an event like this? It will most likely be in Port Charlotte, Florida. We do not have a date yet, as we are just looking for interested participants. You do not have to be a member of FDTC to pull at our events. If you are interested, please leave us a comment with your feedback on our MySpace Blog (http://blog.myspace.com/floridadieseltruckclub).

    Default More Info

    The thought is that we would like to see 100 trucks. The pull would most likely be in late July at the indoor arena in Wauchula, because of rain that time of year.

    Also might do some advertising on the local country radio station.

    We talked about having 4 classes.

    1. Stock. Any truck that has a stock exhaust system would fall in this class regardless of chips or whatever. No Nitrous allowed on any trucks.

    2. Modified Street. Any truck that is street legal with a current registration and insurance could pull in this class regardless of mods.

    3. Super Diesel. Anyone with any mods could pull in this class.

    4. Work Stock. Trucks weighing over 8,000 lbs would pull here.

    Classes 1,2 and 3 would have a 8,000 lb limit. All truck's would be limited to a 26" hitch height and have a standard receiver type hitch. Truck's not meeting any of these requirements could pull for exhibition only.

    Hook fees will most likely be $30 per class. Payout will be 3 places and based on the number of trucks. Any Ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
