I have been reading about the Limited Light Super Stock tractors online and watching youtube videos for the last several months and would like to see some real pulling. Was curious if this class was around here at all for me to check out. I would consider building one of these because they look to be relatively affordable (compared to a 504 with 3 turbos) but would hate to not have any place to pull.

This class looks to be able to offer a whole lot of color to a show and a mix of smoke and smokeless entertainment. Just wondering if there were any in Eastern Nebraska, Western Iowa, or North West MO for me to check out. If not would there be any interest in building a class of these and any orgs interested in having this class?

How does the iamo rules compare to the gordyville rules. Could someone run a 5.9 cummins in the iamo class and what are their rules on what rearend you can use. The iamo rules were rather simple and im interested in possibly building one. What kind of power are these tractors making that run this class with iamo.

I know the iamo rules as they and nwmtpa are local but i usually pull with nwmtpa. I was just suprised when i saw the any single turbo rule when most are running a 3x4 turbo max. You can make alot of power really cheap with a 360ci and unlimited single.

hartbreaker - Not trying to be smart here but how big of turbo do you think you can light with a 360 and will it be efficient enough to make any more power?

I'm hoping to get this class started in tx, using the basic gordyville rules. It is a fun class. Don't have to break the bank building a tractor. Just running exhibition runs for now, if it gets started, we have 3 people I know of that will build. Cockshutt 570 puller on youtube.

Give me a call if you would like. I will help you all that I can. The 5.9 does have great potential and it is not a true brand specific power plant. I look forward to hearing from you. 660-247-1397 please leave a message if no answer or email me at iamorep@yahoo.com.
