Oh ok that makes sense. Do you remember some of the guys that use to pull with that group when it was still around. I've been trying to figure out where a tractor went that pulled with them in the late 90s early 2000s.

Ok. Well it was an Oliver 88 diesel, and I'm pretty sure he ran it in the light limited super stock class. I always thought it was a cool tractor, mainly because you don't see people running an 88 on diesel there always ran on alcohol. I do remember seeing it before they made the roll cage rule, but nothing after that.

Anyone happen to know what happened to the tractor, did it get parted out and sold, or did it get parked in the back of a shed and has been sitting for years like so many of them of there time did.

Anyone happen to know how to get ahold of Dennis? I'd like to talk to him about the good old days of pulling and his tractor.
