This event was brought to my attention by reader Jon Meyer, the owner of a 2003 379 Peterbilt extended hood. It is a big-rig event put on in Kasson, Minnesota…
Jon and a bunch of friends attend this show every September. The event consists of a huge big-rig vendor row, a truck show, and a truck pull—in which only big-rigs are allowed to compete (according to Jon, about 75 trucks compete each year, which is a pretty good turnout for any type of sled pull).
In addition, it’s a charity drive for Toys for Tots, so as long as you bring a couple toys, your truck’s entry fee is paid for. I think it would be a pretty fun event to be a spectator at.
