I plan on attending. I doubt I'll be pulling since my truck is pretty much stock. I did pull about 5 years ago with my bro's 'Burb. It's a lot of fun, but dress warm if you show up, gets pretty cold during the late hours (when they let the diesels run)

Does anyone have any specifics on the pull? Will there be a street diesel class and an extreme class, or just one class?

If I have nothing else going on that weekend I will be there.

Usually just one class for diesels, I believe they call it "Exhibition"or "Extreme"- the trucks are numbered X---. The most trucks I've seen in that class is maybe 12 or so.

This is the closest one to Silicon Valley. There was one in Half Moon Bay earlier this year that got cancelled. And there's a few others out in the Central Valley at the various county fairs. I'm pretty sure San Benito is the last of the cty. fair pulls of the year.
