Tri State is going to try a 2.6 diesel truck class or a 466 a pump 3000 rpm class if the board thinks that a show is going to be short of tractor or trucks. It is not going to happen at every pull. With July only having 4 weekends this next season there will a lot of pulls in a very short time. |

Re: tri state classes
|
um?
|
So what will the rules be? Are they gonna follow a set from another club? |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
So what's up, with the V8 tractor's? |

You can.t buy respect
|
They are going to try paying points out at the year end to draw numbers. Personaly i am staying with badger state. To little to late is my opinion.Badger is a way better deal and pay much better and not as much class jumping. There numbers are way down and promoters are going to start looking elsewhere in my opinion.I hope the best for them in 2012. |
|
v8 tractors
|
also wondering
|
what did the v8 tractors change for rules? did they allow an aftermarket engine block? |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
???
|
How is the board going to know that they will be short on trucks or tractors until the day of the pull ? and then they got 2 classes on stand by ? Doesnt make since ! |

Why 466 not 540 or even 640 allow more colors not ared green show again |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
HUH!
|
Keeping it 466 DOES allow more color. Once you start opening up the cubes you loose color. Look at the super farm class. |

505ci maybe but anything over that and you will loose color. 640ci classes were never about color its all about red, green, and money. |

Re: tri state classes
|
whatever
|
To CANT BUY RESPECT you made sure the hot farm rules were the same as you badger state guys! But as soon as you guys started getting beat you stopped coming around. If you wanted year end money for points you should of brought it up at a preveious meeting! Ok James!!! |

Re: tri state classes

ok

Part of the reason i pull badger is the points fund and larger payback. I also enoy watching the other tractor classes full of top notch equipment in my opinion.Truth be told the main reason i will pull badger is all the games that are going on.I watched very closely and kept quiet as all this talk of traction control was going on.As the year progressed i watched real closely and 100% agree with people as to who was running it. Then the rules for the class disapeared off the tri-state web site and they claimed it was leagal to run as the rules were put back on the net.Even us tractor guys were well aware of the trucks in tri-state running fantasy rules and it not being legal there.Then at the rules meeting you acted like you were completly confused of what it was and how it worked and asked questions that were insulting the intelegence of us members.Your trucks run well and you spend tons of money on them.To sit there and act like you new nothing of it or about it was overkill. All the talk you for sure would of checked into it or if you know nothing then how did you know you did not have it and it was legal to run.I think when you were busted you should of quit it or fessed up and took responsibility.You created a bad situation for all pullers and took the fun out of it for me and i think others. This did and will continue to hurt your numbers and reputation in my opinion and other members. This is just my opinion and may be all off base but tired of the feeling we are dumb and unaware of what's up. Merry Christmas and good luck to all. |

well said ! glad i wasn't the only one that noticed this |

Re: tri state classes

puller 540
|
Why is it that everyone thinks that any class needs to be over 540. Every brand has a engine that can play at 540. 466 is ok also there is no need for the big cubes. In my opinion this should have never be let to get this carried away in the first class. The 619 would have never needed to be put in to tractor pulling especially being it never came in a 2wd ag tractor to begin with. The 531 could have been run in the 6030 and still been able to make 540 cubes. Anything over the 540 and that is where the all red and green show starts. |

I dont believe IH came with a 466 either Case has504,Ih v8 550, MF 510,540, and 640,White oliver 480,v8 560,580,640,MM585 what would be wrong with stock cubesand stock appearing pump etc for bigger cubes,ford at 401,mf at354,oliver at310 thier 6cyl have a disadvantage |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
reason
|
John deere has a 466, ih has a 436 or 466, ac has a 426, ford has a 401. There are a lot of tractors that can make it to 466 if there not there and it don't cost that much money. That is the big reason for a 466 3000rmp class. It don't cost 20k for a small block. The average puller can make be in this class with a tractor for around 15k. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
think again
|
I am not certain that you will have a competitive tractor at 15k. it will run good but i dont think it will be a winner all the time. also if they add this class you will get 466 guys that seem to have too much money and will put a tractor together for the class. Then they will say the reason for doing it is cuase he was bored! not to mention any names giese! |
|
Re: tri state classes

thinkin
|
Giese definitely runs his mouth enough to have more than one tractor! |

my point is why does it have to be 466 why not 410, 430, 510 etc. jd and ih just bolt in 466 everyone else has to build up or down to 466 |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
idea
|
dont everyone agree the 466 guys have to many places and hooks to go to now- |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
try again
|
look at the 5488 |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
great fit
|
How about a class of lawn mowers or pedal tractors? They would fit in perfect. No just kidding they need to think bigger. Bigger is better. Bring on the big smoke tractors. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
money
|
my view on adding a class to tri-state should be a 3000 rpm 466 or 430 c.i. it would be nice to have a starter class instead of jumping in with atleast 70k to compete. they already have big smokers 466 unlimited rpm, super farm, pro stock/super stock. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
interested puller
|
Now are they actually goin to add this 3000 rpm class or is this just a rumor. If so does anyone no all the rules for this class. Not what should be the rules. The actual rules. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
Little Hot Farm
|
They need a lighter small cube hot farm class like 410 single charger something that don't cost an arm and a leg |

the 5288 came with a 466 also. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
IDEA
|
i think the 640 3000 would fit tri-state much better with what they already have- 466 guys have numerous places to hook every wkend now. or you could run them togather and give 466 400 more rpm and a little heavier |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
Registered: 04/07/2008 Posts: 781 |
a good starter class is stock cubes,stock appearing pump,and a turbo limit (2.35-2.5 and enforced). 25 years ago super farm was stock appearing pump and t08 limit or p pump to4 or equivlant worked good lots of color ACs,Ford,MFs,IH,Case, and JDs |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
my 2 cents
|
I think they need to add a LLSS class but have it like they do in ohio and be able to run diesel or alky. i bet some of the badger state guys would hook with them once and awhile and i bet there is guys around that would build alky LLSS if they had a place to pull them! |
|

BINGO! Not everyone wants to haul around a 10,000lbs. tractor. A 6000lbs. Alky/Diesel class would be a good class for older ag chassis light supers to step down to. I can not be another diesel only class. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
past ss puller
|
How can they add classes unless they are all going to 1 hook? Shows are too long thank god they pull the super pro class in the middle of the show so we all can at least see that. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
dwindling
|
Shows are not real long anymore. Shows are down to 50ish hooks total. My opinion they will be smaller yet this year. Courious do these added classes have to join or pay your 125.00 one time hook fee at each show? Not fair to the other members if they get out of membership fees.What is the rules and payback for these classes would also be nice to know. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
spectator can't get into the show because the classes change every fifteen minutes. Not a competitive show with only 6 vehicles per class at most. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
ANOTHER PULLER
|
YOUR SO SMART ABOUT TRACTION CONTROL YOUR MR DAVIDSON AND MR BREINER CAN'T WAIT TO BE JUST LIKE YOU WHEN I GROW UP. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
Assumption was correct
|
Ask around and you will find many people who share the same feelings. Judging by your post i would say there right. |
|
Re: tri state classes
|
correct
|
Good idea grow up and play fair.CAP LOCKS ARE COOL. |
