I thought the pull was in the B category until the finals. I thought the sled setting in the Mod and Alcohol super class were both off. We were sitting there in disbelief when they didn’t reset the sled after Purser’s first run, he could have taken the sled back to Oklahoma with him if he wanted. I wasn’t the least bit surprised to see every mod easily go out the end.
I know people think a C is a bad grade but a C is average, and I thought the show was good this year but it was not exceptional. It was not great, nor was it poor. When I got home my wife asked me what I thought, I said good… well average. So I’d really say maybe a +C or a –B. My other suggestion is the same one I’ve made for a few years now: bring back the LSS at 6500-7000 lbs. and bring some much needed color back to the show. Its new tractors, new drivers, colorful, and it’s diesel vs. alcohol! Jake Morgan Owner, PULLOFF.COM Independent Pulling News This page is a free service. The cost is covered out of my pocket.

I take it the smoke tube was a non issue this year, as it should have been in past years! |

The tube did not break one time.I dont think it did last year the best I remember.The year before it broke about every other tractor.I was told they had a issue with a shaft with a key missing and the fan was freewheeling and not sucking the smoke out fast enough to keep the heat down.That equals a melt down. |

The smoke tube did not break during a class, but there were a few tube repairs this year. The Farm Show has a very good schedule which allows repairs in between classes. The were a couple of occasion that I notice some tube repair going on during an alcohol class just after the first diesel class had finished, but they seemed to be minor repairs. Thankfully not a single repair affected the show in any way. Jake Morgan Owner, PULLOFF.COM Independent Pulling News This page is a free service. The cost is covered out of my pocket.
