RJ Smith and his 2007 GMC Sierra are making a power pass during the 2.6 Cheater Truck class and goes past the 300-foot mark. It was that time of year again the Street Truck Pull at the Clinton County Fair brought to you by the Adirondack Truck & Tractor Pullers. There would be around 80 entries that would be divided into seven classes all the way from the stock truck to the mighty 2.6 Cheater Trucks. There would be many good runs throughout the night and very minimal damage. One of the exciting moments that happened had to be the hard rainstorm that came and dropped at least an inch of water in a matter of minutes. The pull would be halted for about an hour they would rip the track and back pulling we would go. Congratulations to all the different winners throughout the night and for a great show for everyone..
