Big weekend at Mike's Custom Trucks

April 26th and 27th is the weekend to put on your calendar. Trust me on this!

Saturday, April 26th Mike's Custom Trucks will once again open the doors for Dyno Days and diesel get together. There is action everywhere from the Dynojet chassis dyno in the west bay to the Land & Sea engine dyno in the east bay.

Mike has added more to the shop again. You'll have to come to see the latest additions in equipment and products.

Wait, there is more.

Sunday, April 27th will be the first annual sled pull. This is very weather dependant. If we get a seasonable spring, Mike will bring out Mean Green for some sled pulling action. The track is 50 yards from the shop in Mike's lot. This is the finest clay track in the area.

I'll update as we get closer to the date.

I really hope the weather plays nice for the day 2 activity.

Who is all going to stay for both days if the weather holds?

Going to be installing my new Hrvp44 today on the 02 so can't wait to see what difference that makes on the dyno. Going to run the 05 to see what it has just for curiosity stock and smarty jr on the 100 hp setting.

I own a cabin 30 miles north of Park Rapids next to Itasca State Park and I love the pine trees! If the winters werent so nasty up there I would stay year round in that area. I suppose if you spent too much time in the trees it would maybe get to ya.

I'll be there and I might be able to offer some floor space at the apartment depending on what the roommate says.

Oh yeah can't wait. We'll have a group of trucks coming from central mn and when we talked to Mikes lead mechanic about bringing a camper and staying there, he seemed overjoyed about it, but we'll have to talk to Mike to be sure, because where is the closest decent hotel.
