I got a call today from my buddy Jake who has a Harley Davidson Truck. I race with him and some other L guys at the track. Believe it or not they are pretty nice guys....nothing compared to ya'll though!;) Jake and some others are starting up a TRUCK CHALLENGE series. It will be open to all makes and models of Trucks and SUV's bone stock to blown monsters. Format will be bracket racing so all trucks will have an equal chance at winning. June 23rd (Saturday) is the first event and will be held at Moroso Motorsports Park in West Palm Beach Florida. It will run from 9am-4m.

I am definately going and I hope some of my brothers will show up so I'm not the only SRT there! My brother is going to go with his Cummings and my other firend with his SRT8Cherokee. We can all go out and get some grub then go to Rachel's nudy bar after the race!:rock:

Here are the details I was sent:


TEST DAY!!! Gates open at 9am

Just want to tell you all that you are invited to The Truck Challenge at Moroso Motor Sports Park. June 23rd. It is a day event. Here is the information! If you have any questions, please e-mail me at
[email protected]
Please let me know what you think!!!

Cost

The entry fee for each race day will be $30. This will get Truck and driver into the track and racing. That is two qualifying rounds and the first round. The rest is up to you. Spectators are welcome and entry fee is $13 for an event.

Rules

THIS IS A BRACKET RACE WITH TROPHIES TO WINNER AND RUNNER UP. We are a group of Truck drivers having fun and the track has the right to impose any rule for the safety of the participants. This document is not intended to be a complete rules list but a guideline for those that are unfamiliar with drag racing rules. The rules are designed to promote Safety and Fairness. The rules for participation are as follows:


NO ALCOHOL AT ALL when in this event as a driver. Alcohol consumption and possession is grounds for dismissal, you will be asked to leave the park and you will be BANNED from the Truck Challenge Permanently!

A helmet must be worn. If you do not own one, you can rent one at the track. SA helmets are highly suggested for driver safety. Drivers must wear long pants, a shirt with sleeves (except where a fire jacket is required) and closed toe shoes when racing.


Your Truck: Must be a Truck or SUV (Any year, Any model). It can be stock or highly modified, "bone to blown". Your Truck number MUST be the last 4 digits of your social security number or your NHRA number that you pay for. This will prevent any duplicate car numbers. The Truck MUST be in race condition. NO LEAKING. NO LOOSE PARTS. NO A/C USE AT THE STAGING LANE OR WHILE RACING. ALL TRUCK MUST HAVE DOORS, HOODS AND TRUNK LIDS. ALL SAFETY EQUIPMENT MUST BE IN WORKING ORDER. THIS IS FOR THE RACERS SAFETY. WE WANT YOU TO GO HOME IN ONE PIECE AND COME BACK TO RACE THE NEXT EVENTS. FASTEST IS 11.50's. ANY FASTER MUST BE NHRA CERT.

Electronic Devices: There will be NO electronics allowed. This means:
• NO delay boxes may be used.
• NO shutter boxes may be used.
• NO two-steps may be used.
• NO trans brakes
Anyone found using an electronic aiding device will be banned from running in the The Truck Challenge for a period of no less than one (1) year. The items mentioned above are not all-inclusive but are intended as samples of electronic devices designed to give a driver an advantage over other drivers.

Safety: Please read this carefully. Participating in a Truck Challenge drag race or any sanctioned drag race is a PRIVILEGE - not a right. To earn and maintain the privilege of racing, each driver will be required to comply with ALL safety rules. Period.
Keep in mind, we are a group of Truck drivers having fun AND the host track has the right to impose ANY rule for the safety of participants. Please also note that it is NOT the Truck Challenge that determines what safety equipment and procedures to follow while at the track. It is the host track that makes these determinations. Please take the time to log on to the tracks website at www.morosomotorsportspark.com and familiarize yourself with THEIR safety requirements.

The above information is not intended to be a complete rules list but, rather, a guideline for those that may be new to drag racing and somewhat unfamiliar with general drag racing rules. ANY RULE BREAKING WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!

i'M INSPIRED....GOING TO PUT MY LINE LOCK IN....THANKS FOR GETTIN ME UP OFF THE COUCH!!
 
I will definetly be there, but don't know if the truck will be ready. I'm going tomorrow to check up on it and take some pics. I will have the exhaust manifolds and heat shields on Wednesday dropping them off on Thrusday (back from JET HOT). If I get the truck it will be cutting it really close, but this not one of those things that you want to be installed in a hurry. I will definetly know more tomorrow morning if the truck will be ready for Saturday.
 
Oh.. I forgot to mention I heard that if enough trucks show up for the Challenge that Morosso might be doing this once a month. So make sure you guys tell all your buddies including the SS and L boys to go and support the event. This thing should be a blast. From 9am to 11am there is going to be a road course race, and from 11am on will be the drags.

I putting a couple of calls to my buddies with SS to go out.

God I hope my truck is completed by Friday!
