The tractor sure looks very good. I heard he broke the engine mount of the block.
Looks like he will have to build a new engine. |

He poked a connecting rod. Go to the source if you want correct info instead of speculating! |

I don't have a pic, but it's bad-a55... I did stand it beside it for 10 mins before I realized it was a component (I had to go behind it and look). it looked like the old Warpath with a new paint job. It looks great. |

it's a 2805.i belive carlton built most of the frame and chassis himself.it would be nice to see another brand be competitive.it seems a lot of people get caught up in the green-red thing,and will never cheer or support another brand.myself im a fan of tractor pulling,i dont care what brand or who's driving,im just grateful to be able to view are great sport.....GO CARLTON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

what part of the chassis bc carlton has made tractors in the past and believe he also made his new compenent minus the brake set up, rear end and a few others but main chassis is carlton cope. |

I saw the tractor in carlton's shop while he was working on it. he set the motor on a stand, and built the rest of the tractor around it by himself. He is an amazing fabricator as well as a mechanic |

very nice looking, realy enjoy seeing the "off colored" tractors. just got one question, is this tractor NTPA legal? with the engine exposed like it is seems some tech official would have a fit!!!!! myself i think its awsome seeing the heads stick out like that |

It is NTPA legal, but I'd like to see him run PPL. His engine exposure is no different than Beaudry's. Whoever did the tractor did a fantastic job, it's awesome. |

yes CARLTON did a good job. the tractor is going to be a terrific contender once it gets back together. he's done almost everything himself inculding the design for the heads. keep up the good work. Depot repair |

how bad is it hurt |
Re: cope's massey-nfms

I am a fan of any brand that can lay it on a IH ! Carlton's new Massey is awesome looking tractor, hope he does well with it. You Tube has a video of warpath making a monster pass at Mt Vernon Ohio last year. The blower starts to churp coming out of the hole at which time he gouges her big time, lifts the font end and just hauls the mail ! |

Never heard of a blower curp on a pro stock before. That video is awsome |
