I'm glad you were able to secure this show! The pics from last year look like it's a great size area.

It's a shame indy decided they'd rather not have a show at all than treat us fairly.

Hey everyone, I've never been to this show and would just like to know: is this show going to be like Indy in that, at night, the place is secure and we can leave our stuff there? Thank you in advance.

We are normally the last people out of the building and we make sure everything is locked. Your property should be very secure in the building.

Last year they had a county police officer on site during the off hours and he basically had his patrol car parked out side the entrance door to the building we were in. We all left our equipment there without issue.

Travis and rccrazy put on a great demolition derby for all to watch. You wouldn't believe how much these trucks can take. There are videos someplace of these battles.

I see from their website, that there is no Indy show for Toy Truck'n Construction this year. It's being held in Iowa.

Everyone please listen.

I know it may be difficult to understand why we have parted ways with toy trucker.

I get that.

But please realize we have events, this lebanon show has as much space, as much comraderie, as much trucking as the Indy show.

What it doesn't have is a $1,500 price tag linning someones pocket for us to play.

We may have fees to cover but no where as much as it was with toy trucker.

The hotel costs will be less for you as well as food costs. Time to play is nearly the same - a three day stint.

So, here's your chance, and there will be others. Pack a truck, grab a little cash, share a room with a buddy. Heck bring a son, daughter, grandchild. All are welcome. Constraints of no farm stuff is lifted. Trains boats whatever. The point is to come together to have some fun, met some friends, learn some new tricks to building things.

(Edited for spelling grammar)

Don't see much for electrical outlets, what do you do for power?

Decent power. Nine outlets here in this hall. But I'm pretty sure we all own power strips and extension cords.....

Com on guys thats our lame excuse .... Power?

Bridges, roads, crushed rubber AC/ Heat indoors, police security. Reasonable hotels, all kinds of food places. Easy and simple to get to - right on the I interstate exit.

**** its better than Indy. And plenty of space to grow, lots of buildings. Already discussing an RC/HOBBY show of our own.
