10th Beans Diesel Performance Blackout in the Country
 

- Chris Tobin

Beans Diesel Performance is based in the small town of Woodbury, Tennessee, about 50 miles southeast of Nashville with a population of around 2,700 people. Yet the small town draws a crowd of about as many people for their diesel event aptly named “Blackout in the Country.” October 15, 2016, marked the 10th event the BDP team has hosted at the rural shop that started with dyno days and expanded along the way to include other diesel motorsports and an exhibitor area where shops and manufacturers promote and display their products.

The 2016 event included their staple events and attractions like the manufacturers midway, a dyno competition, a burnout pad just for fun, and four classes of sled pulling action. Additionally, Ryan Bean and his team added a show-n-shine competition for this year’s event that attracted a small field of great looking trucks—but we’re sure it will grow as the rest of the event has over the years.
