PPL protect the harvest western series November 18, 2013 12:06PM
Anyone know what rules are going to be used for the 8500 limited pro stock class for PPL. Will be great to see what they can bring into missouri.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 18, 2013 12:42PM
What classes are they gonna offer???

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 18, 2013 02:02PM
A CLASSES- Pro Mod 4WD Super Mod 2WD Light Mod Tractors Lim Pro Tractor Light Weight SS Tractor 8500 LIm Pro Tractor 3.0 Diesel Truck

B CLASSES- Pro Stock 4WD Truck 9500 Pro Farm Tractors 8000 SS Combo Tractors Rules and Events coming soon

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 18, 2013 09:04PM
This will really change pulling in the Midwest. Finally there will be an alternative to local associations and the dismal Outlaws. Many pullers and towns are ready for a bigger stage. Nice call PPL.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 18, 2013 04:05PM
466 c.i.d. 3 x4 SMOOTH BORE turbocharger, just like the founders of the class in Missouri have ran for years and years. Finally our class has been recognized by a great organization with stability.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 19, 2013 12:59AM
Hope they post or someone can elaborate more on the complete rules very soon so we can make sure plus allow promoters time to see this before its too late. Sounds great so farSmiling

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 19, 2013 01:35AM
I would like to see a schedule before I get too excited. Do they have any events yet?

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 21, 2013 04:28AM
Mound City, Mo... Platte City, Mo... Unionville, Mo.... Wheatland, Mo. Just getting started

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 21, 2013 04:32AM
Just hope they get rules posted quickly so we can make it.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 28, 2013 02:35AM
Can anyone tell me the weight class and what type of engine configuration the PPL Protect the Harvest light mod class will be using? Thinking about getting onboard. Thanks

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 29, 2013 01:13AM
As a puller associated with the East Coast Series, just a couple of thoughts for Klint, the PPL and the Western Series:

All pullers, no matter where we are, have a lot of time, effort and money invested in our tractors. It would be nice to find that all could follow the same rules and run as a professional group. However, hopefully the 'powers that be' in charge of making a change for the light modified class in the Western Series will be mindful of the investment these fellow pullers have and the cost involved to change over to a different set of rules so quickly before the next season begins.

From what I see for sale, right now there are 3 tractors in the Nebr Bush Assoc for sale. Don't think you want this kind of result.
Good Luck!

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 28, 2013 02:52AM
Nebraska bush rules. One v8 blown. One natural aspirarded allison

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 28, 2013 04:35AM
I think there might be some confusion. The rules for the Modified class will be similar to what PPL has in the state of New York and the East Coast series. Hopefully next week we will have the rules for the western series available. Thanks Klint

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 28, 2013 03:46PM
Klint I hope you guys can get rules posted soon. Looking forward to seeing this go with PPLThumbs Up

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 29, 2013 12:11AM
To puller 101, I'm wondering who you are referring to when you say "good old boy club". Care to elaborate?

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 07, 2013 07:30AM
Any update on the rules on the 8500 limited pro or 9500 pro farm. Haven't see anything yet

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 07, 2013 07:54AM
I believe December 18th is the day of the formal announcement

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 18, 2013 08:08AM
Any word on rules? Would really like to know

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 18, 2013 10:17AM
Announcement is tonight

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 18, 2013 12:06PM
When will they post them so we know what they will be

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 18, 2013 03:58PM
Which class?

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 12:16AM
8500 limited pro and profarm

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 01:47AM
There waiting on Outlaws to post their rule changes for 2014, so they can copy and hope some come and pull with them.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 02:40AM
Hope they post them today because it is getting too late for everyone to know what they might have to change or fix to pull with PPL. Time is running short.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 08:13AM
Come on man. Its December seriously.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 08:17AM
You bet whatever they do.....do something else that makes since.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 01:05PM

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 03:39AM
Can the 8500 limited pro run aftermarket intake/exhaust manifolds.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 08:11AM
I would like to know also as far as both classes go.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 09:17AM
Profarm will be OEM manifolds.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 11:28AM
Why would or should they run aftermarket manifolds that is opening up another can of worms if this class is to stay budget oriented. Headers and super duper exhaust manifold will run thousands of dollars for what because some shmuck has a lot of money he/she wants to spend. If these tractors are getting the horse power out of them that they say they are the only reason to spend more money is your a shmuck.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 02:24PM
Build them yourself. Thats what happened to this sport, neither class is a budget class last time I checked. No one has skills to build their own so if they have to buy it no one else should have them either. Its not some pullers fault your not educated enough to build them. Bring back the ingenuity or get some and maybe you don't need your checkbook.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 06:38PM
This shmuck as you call it wants to know because I can build one for my self cheaper then what guys are selling oem exhaust/intake manifolds for. Just a simple question with a simple yes/no answer not a big deal either.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 20, 2013 06:15AM
The 8500 Limited Pro can run any manifold.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 20, 2013 06:18AM

I saw that independence IA is having PPL the 17th and. NTPA the 18th??

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 11:22AM
Thank you Mr. Morgan for making my post pretty. I'm new at this and don't know how to do all the stuff yet.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 11:27AM
What are the light mod rules

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 01:37PM

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 03:17PM
I thought there was supposed to be a 3.0 diesel truck class also

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 03:35PM
They decided to offer the 2.6 class on the Renze Seeds Protect the Harvest series and keep the 3.0 class on the Silver series. we can still book the class out west, but it just falls under the Silver series. Thanks Klint

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 11:30AM
Klint, Can you be more specific on the rules and regs for your "light mod class" that will be pulling in the PPL Western Series? Engine configuration, types, how many, etc., or will it be the Nebr. Bush Mod class? Just wondering and thanks.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 02:25PM
2 Hemis, 3 Chevys, 2 Allisons, 4500 hp turbine. Similar to PPL Regional Mod rules out east. Thanks

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 23, 2013 06:57AM
Almost the same rules as Outlaws, It will be interesting to see how they try to schedule events and classes around open Outlaw modified tractor dates, because I doubt many tractors back east will come this far.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 23, 2013 10:15AM
You can come watch them at the Missouri State Fair.....

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 23, 2013 11:07AM
They can have that junk track at the Missouri State Fair. Plus that date of the 17th is on Sunday, the last day of the fair after they have been pulling all week, good luck with that.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 23, 2013 11:40AM
Do you really think PPL gives a rat's behind what outlaws do? For your information now that they no longer race at State Fair and can dig up the track, it is really good. You need to go back to your little organization and leave the pulling to the adults.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 23, 2013 11:41AM
Its been pretty good the last couple years. Come on you know you want to, curiosity has you beside yourself already

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 28, 2013 04:35AM
Will be nice to have a professionally ran tour instead of the good old boy club.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 28, 2013 08:08AM
It sounds to me like you might have some trouble in you 101 class. The learning curve could be really steep.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series November 28, 2013 02:56PM
Reallys post makes no sense that is all.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 19, 2013 03:15PM
A word of advice to you profarm boys. If you want to pull PPl you need to quit bitching about everything and hammering Klint. He can make or break your class. Your call.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 07:22AM
Just the same pullers can make or break Klint or the western series. If there not working together it is done.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 07:48AM
Well then just stay in MO and don't pull with them. Nobody telling you that you have to pull with them. Stay with you local club and whine there.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 11:39AM
If you feel that way you better stay home. All you have to do is read these different posts to see where all the problems are gonna be. When I pulled that class I would have been thrilled to pull at that level. I certainly wouldn't have had a chip on my shoulder. Follow the rules be polite and have a good time.

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series December 22, 2013 02:10PM
Where is a list of classes and rules? I checked the ppl site am I looking in the wrong spot?

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series February 03, 2014 08:12AM
Any new info on the 8500 limited pro class?

Re: PPL protect the harvest western series February 03, 2014 09:15AM
I hope they at least post the complete rules and an updated schedule since Dec. Just would like to see it on their website but I'm sure they'll get them out soon as contracts are still being handledSmiling
