Truck Pulls
Class A - Small block V-8's and 6 Cylinders
Class B - Big Block V-8's and Diesels
- The truck pull is basically a tractor pull, except using trucks. They bring in a sled named Magnum, and hook it up to your truck via chain and clevice on your hitch. The goal is to pull it as far down the track as you possibly can before it gets too heavy.

Dirt Drags
One Big Class
- Trucks are randomly paired up by 2's and drag down the strip. Single Elimination

Back to Back Pulls{/u]
- Not for certain on classes...basically a tug of war between trucks

Mud Bog
- 6 Classes. I can't remember all of them, but the 4 and 6 Cylinder class is the lowest. It goes up from there.
- I believe it was a 100 foot long mud pit, where fastest time through wins. Our own Kampy was the winner last year!!

Tough Truck
- Extremely hard on vehicles. For further info call Hank at 815-434-4077
