You have a contact # for the Hager's sled??? Need to find another sled for another event this summer!!! Everyone is booked up:bang
 
Any update on those rules yet? The only things I'm really curious about are if you have to have any rear axle travel and if you have to have driveshaft loops/shields. Hopefully I make it down there, can't wait to get started this year.
 
in the past, they have allowed solid removable blocking. And haven't required loops/shields on the driveline of the 2.6 trucks but do for 2.8. If they are going with sanctioning rules from the area, they will require loops/shields for both classes now and solid removable blocks.

tollesboro has been a really good pull that last couple years since mathewm became a major player in the track prep and pull planning, hope to see lots of trucks of all makes and classes maybe even some of the big guys can come down and make a test hook on a good track and sled.
 
What time are weigh-ins, I'll be pulling the 2.6 class. How many trucks should I expect in my class, more like 10 or 40? Just trying to see how late of a night it is going to be.
 
weigh in will start at 5:15-5:30 i think in the 2.6 class there will be around 20, but hopefully more
