10-4 Magazine January 2025

24 10-4 Magazine / January 2025 could not have accomplished as much as we did for this event without her diligence, hard work, advice, connections, and perseverance! And speaking of hard work, we would like to thank Tim Huddleston, Will Kozak, and their entire team at the raceway for taking care of the gate, the suites, concessions, security, and so much more. We are happy and proud to be affiliated with these folks and look forward to our 2nd Annual “10-4 Trucker Rodeo & Show” which will be held once again at Kevin Harvick’s Kern Raceway in Bakersfield, CA. The date has already been scheduled for November 7-9, 2025. If you missed this one, don’t make that mistake again, because it was a great time! Come out and show off your trucker skills in 2025 and earn your very own belt buckle!! n EDITOR’S NOTE: Big thanks to Stephanie Haas, Angelina Gaare, and Paige Linss for taking all the photos for this event and show repor t.
