@W8iHav2P actually there is a story behind this and it's not Oyster Rockefeller lol i guess thats a fancy restaurant somewhere....so this started back in September when went on a trip to Colorado to ride side by sides and to see historical places there's some videos on my channel if your interested but any ways we were traveling across Texas and stopped at a restaurant called The Big Texan really cool place... well on the menu for a appetizer they had Rocky Mountain Oyster I had to try them I had always heard they were good and sure enough they were really good lol well in conversation it was brought up that we liked Rocky Mountain Oysters and Jess thought it was Oyster Rockefeller 🤣🤣🤣
Nice competition, thanks to Hyundai for sponsoring this. Great to see more people getting into the industry and great to see competitions like this to raise interest.
Nice. The only thing with this event to make fair all the way around is move the dirt pile after they dump it and to have a set object to know when they can dump it.
It would be nice if all the guys could give some time ro Brenna,boost her confidence and help her to familarise herself with rhe machine operations ,the best part is she didnt hit anything,or break things and that in rhe real world is vital . I dont know why females seem to be scared or unsure of equipment, what's the secret to overcoming that ? I watch Chris and Mike and they are so close in how they operate,Chris being the more consistent and Mine sometimes pushing the limits. A teue indication of a confident skilled operator is when one is in the trench or near the excavator and tou trust their skill not to crush you, some are not blessed with that skill . And we all agree that operating is more than swinging on hydraulic levers and spinning around ,its all the brain stuff of the complete job .
It would be unfair for them to give Brenna points. And I don't think she would appreciate it. As to women being scared or unsure of the equipment, it all comes down to training and experience. That applies to men too. Brenna is doing a fine job in this competition going up against these guys. Even if she doesn't win, she's showing that women can do a job that is typically dominated by men. Kudos to her and her sponsors.
Such a interesting comment from someone who was not there we all took the time to make sure she was comfortable before we begin plz explain how you know more about what happened by not being there thanks just a bit confused
@DirtPerfect It wasn't meant to be critical,sorry for that ,but watching her on the first round and now this one ,I would have thought she was with more confidence, considering that she is teaching others(females)to do the same ! I was trying to suggest that she could spend some time with the likes of you and Chris and the other guys ,with you on the job ,imagine if she could give Aaron a run for his money ! So again sorry I wasn't clear in what I intended to say (I tried though ,I should get the medal regardless) e for effort ? Anything helpful would see her being very close to beating you and Chris ,but especially you because you are the most competitive (in a nice way )
I have an idea for this run, most of them are using the trucks to dump across piles of uncompacted fill like on a earthen dam so, why not make them back across a pile that has a slight bend in it, say about 150 feet across a "dam" that is uncompacted. you can run a dozer across it an rip it for each successive competitor, run the last competitors pile out at the end of the dam (or something) then track the dozer across once or twice to simulate normal working conditions. a rough idea for the track.
I have a question... do you have a moderator in your live chats? and if you don't might I suggest you use one. I actually tuned out because of an individual who just kept posting negative baseless comments trying to antagonize anyone and and everyone they could.
>>> Scoring is WRONG Folks! Unless the rules are from the Biden admin, the FACT Guin and Simon failed to USE the required SEAT BELTS for their "speed run". I have no dog in this fight, however I'd FIRE any of my operators who failed to USE the safety equipment. Should be AT LEAST a 30 second penalty if not a DQ for the nationally observed contest!
Lets Move Some Dirt!!
Oh boy this is getting good
The site needs a pond ,I know a guy or two .
Next time we need teams everyone needs to bring their sidekick with them lol
Absolutely love watching these competitions. Thanks everyone who is competing.
Thanks for having LetsDig18 here for this competition, wish he could have been in the first one. Good luck to all the competitors!
thumbs up to all the compeditors , everyone is a winner in my book , requires a lot of skil to operate heavy equiptment

Nicely done by all. Good stuff!!💪🤗🇺🇸
Great show.
Nice. The only thing with this event to make fair all the way around is move the dirt pile after they dump it and to have a set object to know when they can dump it.
A set object like the orange cones?
Great job Brandon
Thank you!
Good competition.

My 2 favourites in the lead for now. I'm really torn as to which one I want to win it!

@jimbrewer2893 ok,I see it differently though.

The Hyundai bubba dump needs to stay with Mike salmon at dirt. Perfect Aaron kind of got used to. It got a lot of good advertisement out of it.
Agreed 😁
Mike Simon
If DP doesnt win the block stack I'll be shocked
Mike and Chris are cousins as well.
They were got together at each others place. Remember them challenging each other to pull a straw out of a pop cup with an excavator
News to me
Need to get Clinton chitwood from C&C equipment in this next year.
How do you get that they are cousins they look nothing alike...now if you said Mike and Byran were cousins that's alittle more of a match lol
Nope just friends
