Tulsa, Oklahoma will be the epicenter of torque and power as 8-Lug HD Truck and Work Truck Review Magazines roll into town with the Super Diesel Shootout, sponsored by Shell ROTELLA®, on September 20th and 21st!

If you’re into diesel performance and power, this is one event you don’t want to miss. To register and for more information about the Super Diesel Shootout, go to Super Diesel Shootout - 8-Lug Magazine

A little bit fuzzy here, are you having pulls both friday and saturday? RWYB on Friday? Does the RWYB allow cut tires? On saturday do you allow tube chassis trucks as long as it has street tires?
Thanks
Frank
 
Just come kill everyone already! We'll let you run no matter what. We're also debating turning it into a grudge event where you can call people out...soooo, got any Super Stock Diesels you'd like to run?? :)
 
This is a week before the World Finals........ It will probably still have a good showing, but I don't see most people chancing breakage a few days before heading to Ennis.

True, but Texas is far for a lot of people. Also, we're looking for street trucks that can do it all, like Diesel Power Challenge, only they'll be able to hang weight and switch tires. Most purpose-built anythings are bad at other things.

Remember, we are a purpose built truck coming from Pennsylvania. Street tires or the pulling tires?
 
Bring the Pain :hehe:

If you're in the exhibition class, you'll be running against long wheelbase, overweight, and other "illegal" rigs, so might as well go all out....lol
 
this is what we were trying to get the HD Feb truck ready for if I can get off work.

Tried to call you yesterday with the number you gave me way back and it did not work. Tried to PM you back and I don't have enough experience here for the site to allow :lolly:.
Took the DT 466 out and replaced with the new hypermax, p -pump, twin charger with all the stuff on it. Runs awesome and needs more exposure. Unless we break it before then, we are coming. Put us were you need us, we will even help if you need>

I copied the below from the website, this basically looks like a work stock class except you are allowing water injection. Is this the correct set of rules for this event?
