Patches I fully appreciate what you're saying but there are but a handful of big MM's that could make this class and maybe...maybe get balanced enough to run on that track and be successful...the last part is my feeble minded opinion. All this being said if they can fit the rule set they are more than welcome to come pull!
Thank you for your reply! Bryan Lively -

Wade and George thanks for the feedback. I think this is an opportunity for a different crowd to see antiques in a new light. Growth in antiques seems to be in 6-8-10-12mph classes and a lot of those tractors can get up and run hard beyond those speeds. Bryan Lively -
