But what do I know
|
One of today’s best. Justin wagler. Any track any night. First hook last hook don’t seem to matter. People can hit their setup on certain tracks. Soft track, hard track, power track, wet track, loose track, you name it, seems he can hit it just right and find the right spot on all of them this year. You pair one of the best drivers with one of the toughest pieces of iron and you get the best results. I know there are people that will give the credit to having a “traction control” system on his tractor. Weather he does or not him and his team still seem to make the rest of it happen. Keep up the good work boys. |

Without a doubt Bryan and Ernie Conners on Bad Medicine. Bryan's pass at Canfield was one for the books |

I have agree that Kevin Lynn is one of the best and Randy Petro does the best job of reading the track. |

In four wheel drive trucks, I've seen Galen Young, setup, read the track, and drive an underpowered truck right around the "big dogs" on several occasions.
My memories from growing up were always that no matter what my Uncle Danny Bobb was driving, he was going to "make it" go down the track. Never saw him drive in person, but get the same impression of John Lancaster from seeing pictures and videos. |

I agree on Mitchell Coomer, Lewis. He wasn't just a driver, Mitchell was a puller, through and through. Didn't matter what class, he could drive it, and he would study it, and build something that gave him an advantage in the grey areas of the rules. |

John Hileman hands down the greatest driver of all time. Read a track as good as anybody, did more with less horsepower and would out think everybody!
Esdon Lehn also had spent his career doing the same as hileman. Ronnie reed was another that would not only out drive his competitors but horsepower them as well. Tim engler could drive as good if not better than anybody in the big mod class! Prostock without question don masterson and Linder brothers! Newer generation drivers I'd have to say Colin Ross and Paul stone. Those young men can flatout drive!! |

Who can forget Darrell Meese on the original Squealer or Brent Long on the original 686 Long Machine. I will give credit to Ernie Conners he can drive any class of pulling tractor. I am so lucky to be 40 years old to get to see the greats pull before money got completely crazy in the sport. I will say the best 4wd truck puller driver was Cody Lewis. He could win any night, had less invested, but could read the track and set his truck up to win. In the 2wd truck class Tim Fitzsimmons is extremely hard to beat. My friend Josh Harrington is extremely good at driving and weighting the tractor. |

It's hard to argue any of the above mentioned drivers but one has been omitted. Brian Korth. The numbers speak for themselves. The announcers have stated hes won over 60 NTPA hooks & over 40 PPL hooks. His string of championships is strong & his wins in Hillsboro, Tomah, BG & NFMS are too. Love him or hate him the numbers are hard to beat. Give him credit where credit is do. |

Guess who

Easy pick. It’s me, I am the best. I can burn my families savings with the best of them. I’m pretty sure a lot of people have already picked themselves on this thread so at least I’m being honest. |
