Millington, Tennessee, has become the new Mecca for minitruckers in the South with the absence of Showfest. It's most known for being the single-handed most laid-back show. Sure, it has dragging and partying, but in a very "Relaxed" kind of way. Trucks come from all over the South and Midwest for this show. It was very impressive as always. Also, rows of RA trucks came out to support the show; they're kind of a show within the show.
This year, the club games were a must and very popular. However, the banana-eating contest was absent this year, which made all of the guys sad, deep-down inside. I hope, after reading this, the promoters will kindly bring bananas for the girls next year.

Message from the show staff:
Relaxed Atmosphere puts on this event, along with USA Stadium, and help from the city of Millington, along with its great residents to raise funds and awareness for the ALS Foundation. All of the guys and gals running around in those blue Kinetik/Relaxed shirts do it for the love of the game and came from all over the United States. From California to Florida, this event brought them all together as one, big, happy family. We hope everyone who came out had a great time. This was our goal, which we hope to achieve, year after year.
