Big Sky Diesel Nationals, Billings Montana, June 12th & 13th

The NHRDA is proud to announce the MBRP diesel drag race series will be at Yellowstone Drag Strip in Billings Montana on June 12 & 13 for the 5th Annual Big Sky Diesel Nationals. And would like to invite you and your friends to come out and enjoy two action packed days of diesel drag racing, dyno, and sled pulls. There is also test and tune for diesels at the track on Friday night

Oh lord, another TS Performance event.

Another event destined to go down the drain because everyone and their brother is going to make sure that they parade down Main in the heights doing nothing but giving the green-peace eco-***** a whole bunch of reason to keep the EPA down the diesel truck manufacturer's throats about these particulate emissions. Unless the city of Billings wants a lot of wrecks, they better close Zimmerman Trail for the weekend too. Lots of people might be inclined to try to drive off of it since they won't be able to see for all the black smoke.

Thanks for ruining my diesel tuning business.

I didn't see that type of thing happening at the NHRDA event at Speedworld this year, and I sure hope it doesn't happen at this one.

Anyways I think the purpose of this thread was to announce the event, not to discuss it's merits or supposed lack of.

Yeah, what Steve said. I have a chance to catch up to the points leader with this one, and try to stay ahead of Jim C. We're a good group here in region 1.

The NHRDA doesn't have control over everyone, but they do run an organized event and act like the pros that they are..These events are about competition and comroderie with the highest level of enthusiasts..

If you're a diesel tuner, it's in your best interest to help promote the NHRDA and keep the racing on the track..The backwoods runs and smokey daily drivers are what will kill the sport..

What a bad day for myself. Not even my truck, and all stock. Should have done much better. Next trip will be better.

Not sure...I'm gonna guess Jim Calhoun or Michael Pliska. We loaded and started heading out for the 15 hour drive.
