I'm betting he see's the light and builds component this time!
None of his engine parts made it into the crowd this time, thanks to "new" NTPA side shield rules!!

I hope not he is one of the few out there that still believe you should keep it look like a tractor as much as possible. Keep it up Bill

I guess it is his money, he can be as stupid as he wants to with it.
And building a cast iron PS would fit that description.
Seen him break at his hometown pull, axle or final drive, not too long ago, so it isn't a new thing to him.

the new inside shields are called miller shields for a reason. maybe he should not be allowed in the sport cause he has a trouble getting things to stay in the tractor???

He had a brand new transmission and was on the virgin pass when something obviously didn't work and you know the end result. Looks like from the video he was hook in and setting sail. Hope he gets it fixed for the summer and doesn't leave it sit. Also noticed on the side of the Red Mule that the Hyper decals are back on it and couldn't tell if the REI stickers were still up in the front. Did Bill go back to hyper for the old girl?

Bill ought to have divorced Hyper and REI years ago. Because there is better IH parts and engine builders out there!! One parts supplier and engine builder being in southern Illinois.

Hey I think Bill and Jason knows what they need to or not need to do. But I thank them for all the dedication with both tractors.

I remember in 2004 we pulled into broadbent with the Horse and were second hook and first hook was one of Roberts diesels with the new sheet metal and looked like his alky's (this is not a knock on Roberts just an observation that helps the anecdote). Roberts tractor was very impressive and intimidating so we were saying we should load the horse cause it was "outdated". We began to name it "that 70's show" that week.

It turned out that week not only did the horse win both sessions, but Jason Miller and Bartie Nelson took their respective Pro Stock sessions.

We were sitting there joking about "that 70's show" and Jason came to the line in his pro stock session and backed it to the sled. And when he reached to the right of the steering column to put in gear, tightened the chain, and ended up putting it on the rest of the best, we all erupted and felt proud that the "70's show" struck again.

It was a great feeling to see them take that tractor that they have stayed loyal to, win that class. This year it was very heartbreaking to see Bill's mule take a dive like it did.

But I still thank Bill and Jason for staying true to what they like,believe, and add to one of the greatest classes in the sport of pulling.
