I just got done watching a taped episode of PPL pulling at Wheatland,MO...I was at this pull...As we all know Leslie Mears does all the interviews as she has done for quite awhile...In fact they went back to 2015 to show a interview that she did with Jeff Hirt...Back in the 1980's and 1990's a Russ Mears pulled from Ohio....Is Leslie related to him?I was just curious to what her pulling connection is?

Well Mears is her married name. She's married to John Mears who is the PPL Co-Director. Not sure if there is a relation there or not. Leslie is also the announcer for Monster Jam.

Russ and Johnathan are father and son and each drove one of the Mears SS tractors for several years. They had some good looking and good running tractors.

Thanks...I had often wondered if she had married in to the the Mears pulling family..

If I remember correctly the Mears tractors became part of Larry Roberts tractors.

Russ owned Valley Trailers which back then was in Cynthiana. He always wore very colorful hats. Did Tom Morsey end up with one of the SS ?

Leslie announced the NFMS pull in 2019 and did an outstanding job. Her announcing resume in the motorsports world is very extensive. She is always well informed and does a great job of letting the person she is interviewing tell their story. Very professional at all times.
