The new National Equipment League has crowned Bryan Furnace as its first champion.
Following four competitions hosted by HD Hyundai Construction Equipment North America, Furnace emerged the winner.
Furnace is from Howell, Michigan, and is the owner/operator of his own earthmoving business. He is also the host of the YouTube Channel Diesel & Iron.
“The first events proved that skilled heavy equipment operation in head-to-head competition is entertaining, educational, and highlights the talents of the workforce in the construction industry,” said Bill Elverman, Commissioner of the National Equipment League.
“As in any professional sporting event, we see that lead changes, scoreboard jockeying and often just a few seconds between competitors create compelling entertainment. Hyundai hosted a great competition and has shown its commitment to showcasing the talents and passion of the construction industry.”
The National Equipment League is a new entertainment and competition platform that showcases the skills, character and passion of the construction industry through competition.
Additional competitors in the first events include Mike Simon (also known as Dirt Perfect), Andrew Camarata, Dave Buchakian and Geoff Dodge. Mr. Digg (Ryan Williams) served as a member of the broadcast team.
All events were filmed at the HD Hyundai Customer Product Center in Carnesville, Georgia, and broadcast via YouTube.
