I understand. If I knew how to ship food I’d send it to you mail order.

You will like this. Used to travel to Georgia. The business center there was run by a life long Ga guy. Told him about my BBQ addiction. We went to his parents BBQ restaurant in Rome Ga. Converted water wheel grinding mill. Only open for lunch and would only seat 30 people. No reservations. First come first served. People would line up at 10:00 AM. Unbelievable ribs, pulled pork and brisket. Ruined all my other BBQ experiences.

It’d def be worth the drive. I bet you wouldn’t even have to have a motel either... there’s enough members that would have you over stay with them

I’ll be first on the list that you could come stay with.

McBroom, PullYa and Barb...thank y’all so much for the great food. Barb those chocolate oatmeal cookies were to die for. It was really great to put faces with the names. PullYa that blue Ram of yours is gorgeous... if you didn’t win first place the judges were blind!!
Netting JB1 and his daughter was great as well as Hoes. Met a few others but I forget their names. It was a great day of fun and some amazing drag racing. Looking forward to next year!!

IMHO--the judging seem a little less than "professional". They didn't look inside the truck, they didn't walk around the truck, they looked at the engine bay and then walked away. I think that JB1 also had to show them different things on his truck(which by the way looked GREAT). It was also just starting to sprinkle a little so I think the judge was in a little bit of a hurry. We have no idea of who won awards. I asked on their web site if there was a list of winners along with pictures of the winning vehicles and have received no answer. The four best thing of the whole day were---the people--the food---the trucks----and the racing!!!!!! Y'all made the day a success--Thanks again for coming!!!!!

I stayed for the awards. For the trucks 1st and 3rd were still there and received their award. 2nd place was one of us because the announcer specifically mentioned "Ramforum", but I did not catch the name. We might be able to directly ask them who won the 2nd place truck award? I (think) they said "John", but I heard about 30 different names while waiting for the trucks and I could definitely be off on that.

Side note, what's the lift/wheel setup on this truck?

They made us put phone numbers on the form, I hope they would call if you weren't there

That's my truck, 6" BDS lift with Bilstein 6112's at 2.5" additional lift, 5" rear coils on 37x12.50R20 on 20x9 -12mm offset

Honestly, with the impending rain, the awards portion became very disorganized, I wouldn't be surprised if the do not call those who weren't there. They wanted to do a parade for the winners, but they even skipped that and basically stood there and just called out the winners.

I remembered you telling me they were 37's, but I forgot to ask about the rest of the stats. Thanks! You have a killer truck!

I'm thinking you are correct. When they said (name) from Ramforums, I was guessing it was his truck as well. I'm following them on Facebook, I can try to contact them there, unless you want to drop them an email/phone call through their contact info on their site? https://www.spacecitylx.com/lsmf-connect.html

Donutsahoy,
Thanks for responding...I really enjoyed meeting you as well....I just could not remember your name. Sunday I was telling my buddy about your eco-diesel and I think he is going to get one as well. Hope to see you again at one of the meets near your area.
