2010 DESERT DIESEL NATIONALS!

[SinisterDiesel]

It's OFFICIAL, the 2010 NHRDA "Desert Diesel Nationals" will once again be held at Speedworld in March! Strictly Diesel and ITP Diesel will be the title sponsors for the second year. The NHRDA is working hard to help us make this event bigger and better every year...we're VERY excited to get things rolling and this year we've got some extra time.

More information will be posted as we finalize details and such, but MARK YOUR CALENDARS NOW because the date is set!

Saturday MARCH 6th, 2010
(Rain Date: Sunday March 7th)
Speedworld Dragstrip
DAYTIME EVENT (exact times not set, but figure roughly 9am - 6pm "ish")

I will post a PDF "flyer" as soon as we get the preliminary one. Between the NHRDA, Nate and Myself, we should be able to get that flyer distributed to all of the major diesel forum sites. We will also be contacting other potential sponsors so if you have any ideas about companies that would be interested, PLEASE PM NATE OR MYSELF AND LET US KNOW!!!

If you have any serious (not joking here, wisecracks won't help) ideas about how to "encourage" more people to race, please feel free to share them. We need to get more of those folks that just park their diesels in the lot and watch onto the track!

Lastly, rumor has it that the owners of "Maxed Out" and "Casper" have been "bench racing" and "trash talking" pretty bad during the off season. We've gotten confirmation that "Maxed Out" will be here and we're told they've both eluded to settling the dispute at this event...this is GREAT! This is the first event of the NHRDA season, and though I have not confirmed it yet I'm betting it will be a double points race again. Cross your fingers for some other big time trucks!

More to come...I'll let you know how the club can help as we get things figured out!

Not sure of what cost might be, but radio advertising. If they get the flyers done soon enough I am sure we all can pitch in and post them around.

I say we all run signs on our tailgates!

CT Racing was gunning for Maxed Out at the West Coast Nationals this year. Sadly we got rained out before that match up occured. Maxed out is one wicked truck. Should make for a great day of racin!

Wonder if Banks will bring their rail out this year?

[SinisterDiesel]

I will be talking with Randy and encouraging him to try to get all of the Banks stuff here. It's only 1 state away, no reason it shouldn't be here darnit!

[Greatwhite]

Im gonna be there! hopefully with constant mid 13's!!

[diesel6.7]

Can't wait for this event! I had a blast last year.

Dennis and I will be working hard to get as many surprises we can here!!

[TUCSON STROKER]

You can count us in. We had a great time last year. Can't wait for this. are we getting the discount at the hotel again this year?

[Slated4Greatness]

We will be there!! Camping at the track again?

[SinisterDiesel]

It is my understanding that they will be having a Friday night test and tune and will be allowing overnight camping at the track. It's pretty early to have all of those details worked out yet, we just finalized the date and are now starting to work on the specifics.
