What a fun packed weekend in Wapakoneta Ohio at the Auglaize County Fairgrounds! Friday found DIESEL Motorsports setting up for the Friday night Dirt Drags and the burnout contest! The burnout contest was unbelievable what these guys put their trucks through on the concrete pad in front of thousands of people! The longest burn used up the entire pad to blow both tires.

Wapak Truck Festival 2024 Review!
US 36 Horsepower Festival Spring review!
This first show of the year has been held at this track for several years and we expanded it during covid since it remained open. Most of the activities surrounding the Kansas City area canceled all of it's events so the local clubs called me and wanted to bring their cars to our truck event.
The truck guys loved the mixed motorsports and it has been the same every year! Car and truck show along with drag racing plus food trucks and vendors at the event. It is like a county fair with motorsports.
The afternoon is filled with cars and trucks rolling in while they enjoy good food/drinks and visiting the vendors. A beautiful Spring day makes it relaxing for all those that attended.
Over 70 show vehicles and 1500 fans strolled through the drag strip looking at vehicles. All waiting for the drag racing that took place after 6pm, the normal classes ran from the track with many visiting vehicles!
Over 100 vehicles raced down the track while 2000 plus watched from the stands during the evening hours.
DIESEL Motorsports wants to thank US 36 Dragway for cohosting this event with us along with our many sponsors and staff who help us all day long! Below are the winners!
