TDP Pull off in Montana

[JoeyD]

We're holding our third annual "Diesel Day" here in western Montana on September 6-7. All Ford, Dodge and GM diesel truck owners and aftermarket vendors are invited to attend. The focus is on power comparisons between the three brands and what aftermarket power products currently exist.



On Friday evening we'll all meet at a local steak house for dinner, then on Saturday, we'll run the trucks on a 6%grade with a loaded trailer weighing approx 10,000#.

Following the event, a story will appear here in The Diesel Page that covers the event and products used to make power. Other than your Friday steak dinner, there is no cost to attend for either truck owners or vendors. Just bring a truck and/or products you'd like discussed. Please let me know if you can make it... It'll be great time to meet other diesel truck owners and see what this power thing is all about.

Where abouts in MT? It's a big state to just cruise around looking for something.

The "pull-off" portion of the event will be held just north of Missoula Montana. The dinner on Friday will be at a restaurant about 35 miles south of Missoula. Stevensville is about 25 miles south of Missoula.

It's really too bad this event was scheduled for September 6th & 7th. Diesel Thunder in Spokane is scheduled for September 7th and from the response we have gotten, most of the "Big Boys" will be attending Diesel Thunder. Unfortunately, the Cummins probably will not have their top performers there.

Is there a chance your event could be rescheduled to the week before or after for a better Cummins representation?

It's not my event, I was just passing it on. The last time they did it, there were a couple of Cummins trucks there. One Cummins powered GM and another Ram. They were both modified and turned fast times with the 10k trailer.
