Jim Smith said, "[our] booth was busy all day!" with a crowd "before, during and after" the strongman events. And as part of the grip fun, both Robert "T.T." McCray and Ron Mazza qualified for the Rolling Thunder Nationals - Robert hit 220 pounds and Ron hit 210 pounds. Ron also "hovered the Inch" and closed a couple of No. 3 Captains of Crush® Grippers.

Watch for a complete report at the Diesel Crew website.

Jim Smith, who was running double duty as he competed in the strongman contest, said, "The [NAS] competition was huge, with 83 competitors, and April Ciaffaglione and her husband did an incredible job."
