The two-day event will feature a catered dinner, Test and Tune event on Friday night that will allow fans to meet drivers and vendors at the I-40 Dragway in Crossville. The diesel drag race happens Saturday morning at 9am at the I-40 Dragway and will feature teams competing in the Outlaw Diesel Super Series’ e.t., bracket Pro-Street, Pro-Mod and Pro-Dragster divisions. The Lucas Oil Pro Pulling League sled pull takes place at the Cumberland County Fairgrounds on Saturday at 7pm (gates open at 5pm).

Mike Dalton, Cookeville resident, owner of RLC Motorsports and primary sponsor of the Rocky Top Diesel Shootout said, “Last year’s event exceeded all expectations and we believe this year’s diesel drag race and sled pull will be even better. With industry leading companies, sponsors such as Lead Foot Diesel Performance and PPEI Custom Tuning, and partners like Outlaw Diesel Super Series and Lucas Oil Pro Pulling League, we’re excited to see the level of competition continue to rise and bring this unique form of racing to Tennessee.”

Last year’s Rocky Top Diesel Shootout brought dozens of race teams from all over the country as well as over 3000+ fans to the Upper Cumberland. In addition to the drag racing and sled pulling, the event will include several diesel, racing, and off-road performance industry vendor booths as well as full food and drink concessions. “Diesel Performance and drag racing is one of the fastest growing motorsports in America. It’s a turbo-charged, full-out drag race where over 2000 ft. lbs. of torque push these high-tech brutes down the one-eighth mile just like top fuel dragsters!”, stated Mike Dalton.

Individual event tickets for each event are $20, and a 2-day all access pass including Test N Tune, Drag Race, and Sled Pull can be purchased for $50.
