Ohio truck meet 2014 sign up - June 22nd

It's time for another Ohio truck meet. For those that have seen our meets before you know the format. Get a bunch of truck nuts together, load a trailer to the the limits, hook it up and flog each truck up a hill and hope nothing breaks! For those that haven't seen this before here is our past 7 meets: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.

The event will be on Sunday June 22nd. We'll meet at the WalMart parking lot located in Milllersburg, OH (1640 S Washington St.) at 8am. From there a short BS session will ensue followed by a caravan back to my house. At that points it's hook and tow time. Lunch will be served (usually grilled meat of some sort, the typical sides), followed by more hook and tow time until everyone that wants to tow has been able to.

Towing is purely optional. Many come just for the truck talk and general conversation that goes on.

Post up in the Super Duty forum (to keep thing more centralized) if you are interested in coming or have questions. I can help with places to stay, things to do since I am located in the largest Amish population in the US many decide to make a weekend out of it.

By the way this is an official invite for Jimmy Fallon!

As usual I'm looking forward to a full report with videos. One suggestion is to pick a spot (landmark) and report the speed and time for every truck at this location/s. This way the reporting is consistent.

I brought my 5er last year and did a four day weekend out of it.

Not this year as the following weekend we take off for a out west trip to see the grandkids.

I do typically pick landmarks for speed and times. There is well placed road signs and power poles that I use. However I thought about putting road cones out so it's more apparent. Only issue is that makes things a bit more umm... conspicuous.

That would be nice to see how much of a difference the extra power makes.

check out how the 6.7 did. I was impressed that I could still spin the rear tires in 2wd even though there were four tires.

Your truck launched hard even with the traction control kicking in. That was impressive.
