DIESEL Power Plus Showdown 2025 Review - DIESEL Motorsports

DIESEL Motorsports wants to thank DIESEL Power Plus Showdown for inviting us to be a part of the Benefit Show for the #118 Foundation which funds county fire/rescue for Mid-Missouri! It was a beautiful day for the October 4th event which included Car/Truck/Semi Show-N-Shine along with evening sled pulling with tractors/trucks from Mstpa! The local crowd really showed up to support this benefit event which resembled a county fair and plenty of activities for the children.








The large crowd in the evening filled the grandstands along with the lawn seats plus the special arena truck spots. They got to see a fun show of pulling including a special dinner special and local fair food booths. There was plenty of things ofr the kids to do during the day including bounce house, bucking bronco, games, and a petting zoo with exotic animals.

The car/truck/semi show was first for this event and we saw quite a few polished up semis from local trucking companies, plus many different cars and trucks. It is always fun to talk with the builders to find out what they did to build their custom vehicles.

The #118 Foundation brought fire trucks from 6 different towns along with other emergency vehicles for the kids to look at and talk with the emergency works.
