On Friday, July 11, we
arrived in Pigeon Forge, TN around noon. The temperature was
in the high 90s and very humid. After visiting one of the
local car washes, we fell in line with several mini-truckers
and headed up the main drag. Pigeon Forge's main drag is 6
lanes wide with grass/turn-offs in the middle. Mini-trucks
were everywhere. Different clubs lined the yards and
sidewalks in front of the hotels they were staying at.
Everyone else was either cruising or parked along side the
main drag. We soon discovered that the back streets were as
full of minis as the main street.
The number
of mini-trucks in town was awesome. Too many to count. We
cruised among the best. It took us 1 hour and 15 minutes to
go 2 miles. The Mini-Truckin' staff was on-hand by the road
side. Hydraulic demonstrations and burnouts occurred in the
street in front of the Mini-Truckin' staff. Stripes, wild
graphics, air bags and performance items were the main focus.
