LPS puller

Don't mean this as an insult, but who would spend that kind of money on a profarm? And to pull for peanuts. And what does best of the best mean? Certain parts and combinations are needed to make horsepower. Certain parts are needed to handle the stress put on an engine. A billet crank would be the best of the best but is definately not necessary in a profarm. Unless you were planning on using the bottom end for prostock or something later. A profarm should run nearly forever without any billet parts. And you don't always have to buy wheels and tires new. In fact, sometimes the best are used.

Think again about the billet parts. ProFarm engines create more torque than you realize. I know people that have spent a lot more on tractors that have a lesser track speed than a ProFarm.

am building one

I have never heard of tractor, but I am building one and I wish it would of been put on here earlier. Would of saved a lot of money. I just had a motor put together with top notch stuff. Fuel system and turbo best of best. I bought new midwest wheels and 20.8s and it cost me close to what he wants for a complete tractor. I don't have rear end or transmission chassie, cage, sheet metal, clutch, weights, or intercooler added in. In my mind its a pretty good deal.

I don't much care for the guy myself, but that tractors has done well in BS. The BS profarm is a very hard class to do well in. In some ways it could cost more to run that class than SF. You would be blown away with the torque numbers for the tractors in that class. They run a big charger and cooler. You could not dream of putting a tractor together like that for 75K. If it was mine I would light it on fire before I would sell it for 55K like you say it is worth. Sure you could buy tractors in some other classes for that or less. Then run one of those classes. BS profarm is not a cheap class.

puller binder one

Well put, but at the end of the day. It is hard to justify a 50k profarm , wether alone a 75k profarm..secondly it has 40 hooks on it. so it is ready to be gone throu. So there is another 5 to 10k. good rule of thumb is " good used parts, is 50% the price of it new one" that mean a copmlete tractor. Seconldy allot of people brag becasue they may have 100k in there tractor, and the next guy can have 50k in the samething. Just some people can machine and turn wrench, others jsut rely on vendors and credit cards.

Profarm means different things to different people depending on where you are. Have you been to Gordeyville and watched this class? Have seen billet cranks not hold up in this class, yes trq#s are amazing for this class with very little wheel slippage = alot of broke parts you won't see in SF in a large part of the US. If you have personal problem with Scott have the nadds to talk to him personally. I pulled in this class and realize how mutch it cost to be a competative tractor in this class. This tractor is clean, well built and would make someone a great puller SF or Profarm. What kind of an idiot would advertise a tractor for 50m then ask 70m can always go down. Any serious buyer wouldn't start sh.. on feedback.

So if you saw someone break a billet crank, maybe you could share who it was and they can explain why they were cheating to start with. And at 3000rpm, a stock crank should hold up for nearly ever!

I love all of it, i dont personly know Scott, i have talked to him at pulls and seems like a nice guy. I remember hearing a story when he pulled PI that other puller boo'ed him at there banquet, but to me he seems alright. Every man has his price, and his 75,000. Is it worth it, well to the right person it is. It is a very nice tractor with a lot of power. I dont think it would be a bad buy if you had the money and wanted to win. Thanks to all the others who posted on here and complained about him and the price. It made me laugh. Good luck to all BSTP tractors going to Gordyville.

To Well

I am a machinist in my day job and have many of my own machines at home. I have been in pulling for 30 years and a machinist for 28 of those. I have pulled or helped pullers in Pro stock SF and in the newer HF PF type classes. It would be hard for me to put a tractor like that together for 75 grand doing most of the work myself. If you did want a steel crank sky is the limit on what you could spend on that alone. Start adding up what parts that you can not make yourself. Pumps. 4-7 grand. Injectors. 1500-3000. A head. 5-12 grand. You could spend 10 grand on an IH tranny. I belive badger can not run a pro fab in PF. The bottom line is that tractor is only worth 75k if somebody wants it. If you want a tractor ready to go and have no desire to put one together yourself 75 would be a good deal. Expensive parts ad up fast. To say anything in pulling that is used is only worth half is BS.

First of all I do know Scot and he is very paticular in what he does.If you are going to build a tractor that is going to be in the top consistantly here it is.I hear people say they can build one cheaper and all BUT...we all do not have a machine shop to build our own stuff.Sure maybe you don't need polished rims on the inside but there are ones speaking from experience that do want them because they like to have their stuff look nice and someone will appreciate that.Also for some of you he has spent quite a bit in being able to go to the dyno and hook it up out the back.No teardown needed.Again if you go to the dyno another time saver and plus.Do you need "new" tires?Well good luck finding the old 10 plys.Sometimes you don't have a choice but to buy new.
If hes too high to some so be it.If he doesn't sell it it shouldn't matter to any of you.Its his tractor and he can put what he wants on it.When you all go sell something please post it on here so we all can discuss if its agood deal or not.I dare you to go build the exact same thing for 75K.Sometimes it's better buying something that is proven then wasting money on experiments.Turn key go have fun and be competitive.Whats that wurth?
Good luck to all the Badgerstate guys in Gordyville!Even you Scot!Try not to be such a jerk though.Sounds like you make a habbit out of that!LOL!

By comparison, within the last year, two quality super farms, Bankrupt Binder and Fat Bottom Girl JD, could have been bought, with enough left to buy a new 32 hydraulic tailed Load-Max trailer and fuel to pick the tractor up, for $75000. The super farms could have traveled better, with a 40 to 60 hooks a year available, if you have the desire and budget to travel. If someone loves the class, wants to start with a competitive tractor, and stay in that area, it might fit someone's needs. There are so-called "farm stock" tractors all over the country with well over 50k in them. For 75 k, if the money was in cash on table, there are many quality sf, light supers and a a couple of the few left, super stock diesels,that would change hands!! The purchaser, especially a first time puller, needs to come to terms with his desires, availability of free time, a realistic budget and what each class, has to offer. In KY, llss, which is not a cheap class to be competitive in, offers lots of hooks at home, and also the rules allow you to hook in multiple states, with few or no modifications. Whoever buys the tractor, for whatever price, just needs to know going in, don't be suprised if you don't have another 15 to 25k in it in a couple of years of competition, unless it's parked a lot more than it's hooked.

some of you knowitalls dont know squat, as for going slow Scotts tractor is constitently 28-30t mph down track,set ups are same as super farm with a bigger exhaust wheel,heavier govenor weights for 3000 rpm, and 20.8s. This is a very good tractor,well put together,clean,and if you would talk to Scott you would find out tranny was redone end of this year. this tractor has been kept up very well, any one would not be disappointed. BSTP pro farm can run profabs and now port injection water.

Black Bart	Comparing the Bankrupt Binder (a nice NTPA SF) to a BS PF is not the same thing. A BS PF is past a NTPA SF. BS PF go down the track at 30 mph at 3000RPMs. In an IH they run 3 4 5 6 teeth over direct. Huge torque stuck to the track. You don't have to spin your wheels to go fast or be cool. Reply Quote

If u can't do the math, 30 mph = 44ft/sec. So thats 300ft in 6.8 sec. Even the unlimited supers take 10 secs to go 300ft. Reply Quote

Boy, LPS puller sure has it all figured out. I think he forgot it takes a little time to get off the line and get rolling and on the big end when the pan hits you loose some momentum. I have no doubt they are hitting 30mph midtrack. We are doing 28mph with similar rules without the intercooler. It is physically impossible to get down the track in under 10 seconds. Sure unlimited and ss turn them hard but do they ever hook up and put all that wheel speed to the ground? These profarms do get hooked up and put alot of torque out, puts alot of stress on everything including welded cranks. One more thing, how many ntpa sf stay up on rpms once they leave the line? They settle down in 2800-3200 range, I'll take a 3x4 over that and the 20.8's.

As for all the bull talk about what this tractor is worth, you guys can say what you want, build a top runner and see where you are at and remember to figure your time too. Everything looks good on paper. Good luck with your sale Scott.

If you don't believe the guys that have pro farms or watch them, just ask a sled operator how fast they are running and how much weight they are pulling.. I think alot of you would be suprised.. At our pull the Pro Farms pulled the same sled setting plus one brick in the box.. SF winner went 318.86 Pro Farm went 337.60.. NTPA region 2 hook Super farm, Illiana Pullers Assoc. Pro Farm, Classes went back to Back.. IPA and BSTP Pro Farm tractor both run very well, probably the best in the country..

To skid mark (butt stripe), LPS, and anyone else who thinks the class is cheap. What do you guys pull besides your lady parts? Take a trip and pull against the guy. If you pull NTPA superfarm good luck. If you pull 540, good luck. You guys could not dream of putting a gear that big in. Oh, if you have a problem with the class or drivers, go to Gordyville and talk to them they will be there. They are usually the guys with their front ends in the sand pile.

while the 640 class is not my favorite class it is very interesting to watch. i am not going to say they will beat a ntpa super farm (i am not cutting down any super farm pullers either) cuz i dont have any proof to go by. the motor setup is different but it would be fun to see. as to skid mark i dont know for sure who actually made the class. Mark could answer that exactly. it started as a brush class and almost everybody was going 600 cubes or bigger with open rpms. bstp took the class around 2004 or so. the original class as a brush form was very fun class to watch. You never knew what was going to happen when turbo bob hooked his 9 to the sled! what ever happened to him or the tractor? Merry christmas

Black Bart

I am very serious that a BS PF is past a NTPA SF. Same CI with a bigger turbo and an ice water intercooler = more power. I am not sure if BS PF can have a filled head. That and longer rods with a deck plate would be the only + a NTPA SF would have over a BS PF. An ice water intercooler is huge and a massive exhaust housing. Not all PF rules are the same around the country. Right or wrong BS has their own set of rules and they make big power and huge torque.

yep sully he did a great job on his new chassis! the tractor runs great also! His old tractor is north of me a ways and i believe it run UPM now. Scotts tractor in my opinion is worth what he is asking, if i were in the market to get into pulling or just get another tractor going for that class i would strongly consider it. Pulling parts maybe worth half of what they cost originally but does anyone know what scott has stuck into it? Bottom line is he is askin that amount, nothing we can do to change it, and he may or may not sell it. good luck at gordyville scott

Profarm watcher	I am wondering if I am the only one thinking this but asking 75000 for a tractor that falls on its face at gordyville is during his second run that counted is a little bit nuts but maybe I'm wrong Reply Quote

SJ	Didn't fall on it's face.The main power disconnect got shut off some how.They went going to leave the sled alone when he is the second pulled and goes 250 ft but I bet It would have held up I f not top three.Profarm watcher you should really go work on building one to compete for 75k instead of putting one down that youl never beat!

Hey pro farm watcher, say what you want lol. We ran in to some minor issues, we have no idea how the power got shut off, and never will. Alls we no is that scott had everything when he left the line. When we lost the power, we lost our water injection and intercooler. Some pretty important things to have in that class. i like how u talk bout the second run and not the first,which ended with the tractor in the sand pile, but its ok every one looks at things differently. We had fun, no one got in trouble with the law , and the tractor came back in one piece. To me that sounds like a successful weekend.

Pro Puller	If Scott crossed his t's and dotted his i's then you shouldn't have minor problems like this. All I'm saying is if you want to sell a tractor at that price you better make sure there is no minor issues, because what else is wrong with it? Reply Quote

Black Bart	Its tractor pulling! No matter how good you are and how many times you check everything things still go wrong. Still worth 75K. If the sled was set right he may have won the class on the first run. Would it have been worth 100k then? Reply Quote

I witnessed the power failure problem. When I pulled him out of the pit area I asked what happen. He said his master switch flipped off mysteriously and it did, no lights on the dash, no water injection no intercooler pump equals no power. For you nay sayers just look at what he did in the summer. If you watch the video of the pull its obvious what happened. Sorry for your bad luck Scott hope to see you and your crew back again next year.
