Jeff , I am coming and I bring some military stuff , my usual : the tank-transporters I use in Danville , probably 1 tank ( my good old Tiger 1 for load , but fully operational with my latest gear-reductions ) , and Famo ( as load )

We will not turn guys away who behave and work to our goal but we are not to sway the focus of the event.  We are guests and need to honor our host.

Buildings, various products as loads all add realism and is highly encouraged.  So team up with others to make this a good whole experience of mini trucking and construction equipment. If all you have is a tank or other non themed item team up with another Trucker to haul you here or there etc.

Hello Chris & Travis ,
I know I been falling of the grid again since last year , just way to busy with work and private stuff , but I am coming too !

My dad made us a bridge to add to the fun.

[RCP57]

That's awesome!

[rowings farms]

what is the load rating?

[TRUCKMAKER]

Travis, that's great! Tell your dad thanks! I'm sure it'll get used. Looks like it would make a good railroad bridge between shows!

[tc1cat]

Thanks guys, I had given my dad the lumber from a flat bed and he made himself a bridge and mentioned building one for the trucks so I went to town and got him some lumber before he changed his mind.

14in of clearence so anything taller than that is going to have to go around or loose some parts.
