I hope there's something there other than just the usual. I went to the Jambo in Lima, Ohio and the DHRA had a tent set up there trying to get some diesel activities goin on. The word at Lima was that there wasnt any intrest in diesel's, that why they didnt have any pulls or anything. They had that dyno there that they use at Muncie, but that was about it. Should'a seen the crowd standing around that thing all day long. But i guess it did some good, b/c I know they had pulls at the one in Canfield, but i didnt make it there. So i was hoping to get to see some sled action at this one! The truck show's great, but through a little black smoke in there and it would make it that much better! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Big Smile.gif

Yah, i went this year to Lima back in May. There's a lot of diesels at the show, but there wasnt any diesel events. No pulls, drags or anything. Ya they had the same old burn off contest and stuff like that. But i would rather see some pulls or drags. The only thing they really had diesel related was the Dyno. And you couldnt hardly get within 30 yards of it b/c of all the people standing around watching. I was talking to Eric McBride at the DHRA tent and he was telling me that the Jamboree people didnt think there was a very large intrest in diesel trucks, so they werent goin to sponsor and truck pulls or anything like that. So he was having people fill out questionairs about peoples intrest in diesel trucks. Must have had some affect, b/c the Jamboree they had in Canfield Ohio a couple months after that had truck pulls with it. So i didnt know if it was something they were goin to continue to do, or if it was just a one time thing. A dyno atleast would be nice, but pulls would set off a jamboree! Edited by: 6.2 Blazer
