The only time I remember there being any grand national tractors there was the year they had a light super stock class. They haven't had them back since. That was the year Blue Blazes tried to take the sled out the door and missed. No door no sand all steel pole. |

If that was 2010, there was indeed a sand pile! I was there, there was a tarp over it due to some of the entrants hitting the sand and sucking it into the chargers. I think Blue Blazes got a little off course, lol!!!
Exciting times, wish they would come back. |

I would guess the pay out is the reason why! |

I don't believe the pay is the issue. If any body is only pulling for a certain pay amount they should find a new sport. The pay will never match the investment. The reason is the economy isn't the greatest. Crops are down so they are not spending extra money on things they don't have too and over the last few years the separation of competition level has became a lot closer between state level and GN. They can't just stop in for a easy win. |

So they don't have the money to pull, but pay isn't an issue? Weird, one would think if it payed better it wouldn't cost the puller as much. Seems like pay is the issue. |
