We're gearing up to throw our 3rd annual Diesel Days and this year we're relocating to the Allegany County Fairgrounds for our biggest and best Diesel Days ever!

Class Payout

Dyno

The 1500 HP capable Dyno will be provided and ran on Saturday from 10 AM until Dusk and on Sunday from 10 AM until 6 PM by  Axcellerated Motorsports. This is a fantastic opportunity to find out what your truck is made of, as this is open to both diesel and gas powered vehicles. There will be a trophy prize based on the same 4 classes as the sled pull. Trucks will be dyno'd in slot order, not by a time schedule, so drivers need to be ready for their run. Owners with Dual Rear Wheel (Dually) trucks need to be prepared to remove their outside rear tires, so please allow yourselves extra time to have you truck ready. Please call (301-687-1724) and register ahead as space is limited!

 Concert

The opening act will be Renegade, a four piece Country/Rock band from the West Virginia and Cumberland, Maryland area. You can check them out on their Myspace page here. Headlining the show will be Charlie Kenney and Fire Creek, a local Country Music favorite hailing from the rural community of Short Gap, West Virginia. Please visit his Myspace here.
