Off To The Races


So we went to Vegas the first weekend in May for the first annual Diesel Hot Rod Assoc Championships! It was really fun and then turned out to be pretty expensive. Todd did the sledpull with his truck and, although he went pretty far compared to other trucks, it did end up costing us our brand new clutch with just over the allotted warranty miles on it! But nonetheless it was pretty cool to see so much fast diesel power!





There was also a burnout contest, which was so cool. There was some serious rubber smell in the air during that! There were also some pretty cool trucks on the runway!




We were invited by Todd's mechanic, who actually paid for our room in Mesquite, which only really made Jenny wonder just how much time Todd spends down there at the mechanic shop! The mechanic had a truck racing(the red and gray one) so it was also fun to have someone specific to cheer for! All and all it was fun to be in Vegas sniffing all that wasted fuel all day!
