Once a year, the nation's strongest sled pulling trucks compete at the TS Performance sled pull event in Kentucky. This year, the action moved from Bowling Green to the Franklin County fairgrounds in southern Kentucky-a venue that seemed even more ideal for hosting the massive pulls TS Performance is known for.
Also new to the event this year were qualifying rounds for the 2.6 and 2.8 pulling classes the first night, followed by the finals the next evening. More than 60 competitive trucks showed up to battle it out in the 2.6 and 2.8 classes. A dozen 3.0 trucks also made the call-giving spectators a taste of big horsepower-followed by eight Super Stock trucks, which displayed the ultimate in diesel horsepower. But sled pulling wasn't the whole story.
A large vendor row allowed big names in the industry like ATS, Nitto Tire, Scheid Diesel, Columbus Diesel Supply, MBRP, and DieselSite to showcase their latest and greatest products. Diesel Performance Motorsports' industry-standard dyno was also on hand and running steadily both days of the event. A show-'n'-shine competition brought out some slick looking trucks, and the Miss TS Outlaw 2010 bikini contest (which you can check out at DieselPowerMag.com) kept attendance high. Follow along as we recap all the TS Performance sled pull action, and mark your calendars for the TS Performance Outlaw drag race scheduled for July 24. We'll be there looking to put your truck in the magazine.
