I am waiting on respones from a few other companies. The event is a fund raiser for Families of Fallen Soldiers in conjunction with the Purple Heart Association. Our event last year will be in April's Issue of Diesel Power. The event is called:

10,000 lbft of Torque in the Southwest

Last year we had 30 trucks show, we rolled 26 on the dyno and had a monster truck, BBQ, give a ways, door prizes, class trophies ect.... It was a great time and a great cause. We raise money to help offset travel and lodging expenses of the families that have lost a Hero. Anything you can donate for the event would be greatly appreciated.

This year, we have Ford, Chevy and Dodge dealers attending the event and are going to place new trucks on the rollers. We are going to have a traveling trophy for the dealers and they are helping us with TV promotions.

Keep an eye open for the event and would love to see as many of you guys/gals that can show!
