What a weekend - supporting Northwest Truck Run with not only 2 but 4 vehicles across 2 areas.

Our lovely rigid truck acted as a stage for Niall Mack and Katelynn to entertain everyone to X60, MX26 and RB51 DAF on show as well as being out on the NW200 circuit.

Great event ran by Community Rescue Service & credit to the photographers and everyone sending in to us!

If you have any videos or photos of our trucks or van at the event - tag us or send us your photos/videos.
