Does korth win with a rain out
|
LSS fan

So does Brian win the championship at BG on a RAIN OUT????? Would be nice to see it won on the track instead of mother nature allowing him a win |

The answer is yes he does. Title, ring and Rotella cup money. |

Wish Friday would have been a rain out too!! Hootman's got no luck at all. Too bad it's only a 4 pull championship. |

But. It's just another korth blackbourne tractor
|
Taking nothing away from speigleberg he is driving well but it's a cookie cutter tractor of the korth blackbourne tractors. Hootman has to beat basically four tractors |

Hootman isn't the only game in town Spiegelberg showed they
Are a true contender. The rain looks like a saving grace for some In the standings |

GN LSS 2019 needs to have a lot more events since class is much healthier number wise than SSO which needs to be replaced. |

Light super stock hooked Thursday night. They were supposed hook again Friday night but the show was canceled. Even in the campgrounds I knew that. |

Rain out sucks but it I see no problem with korth he is the champ, look how many followers he has ( cookie cutters) that want to be like him. |

What exactly is Hootman a champion of ? Korth runs both ppl and ntpa jason only runs 1
Series which at best would of been 8 hooks for the whole summer. Give credit to determination and perseverance where it's do when korth seeks out Competition. A lot easier to maintain 1 for 8 hooks than 3 for a pile of hooks and A whole lot more traveling |

Re: Does korth win with a rain out
|
What ?
|
I believe anyone that builds and works on their own puller and wins at that level has it in them, anybody can buy a cookie cutter and copy the champ, so to me that's not a true champ ! |
|
Re: Does korth win with a rain out
|
Anybody can do it
|
Anybody can do it yet no one does? |
|
Re: Does korth win with a rain out
|
What ?
|
Ok I will finish, only a few are dumb anough to pay quarter million to have a cookie cutter, no brains no headache, every class needs a little filler lol |
|
Re: Does korth win with a rain out

Anybody can do it
|
The class would be a lot better if all these anybodys you mention, would step up, |

Re: Does korth win with a rain out

To all the peeps talking cookie cutter tractors and saying Korth isnt a real champion please post of a picture of your pulling tractor. Until you do post your puller please put your vast knowledge and experience gained at pulls and run up to the concession stand and get me a Diet Pepsi and a bag of Skittles. |

Why would you drink diet pepsi and then eat skittles that has all that sugar in them. Why not drink milk and eat carrot sticks. Your nutritous snack makes as much sense as this thread does. But it is entertaining |

This thread is a perfect example of some people never being happy. Last week we had the thread with people complaining because a tractor was home built and was struggling to get it to make a good run. This week its complaints because a guy paid the money to have a winner built. Its gotta be one way or the other people. |

Korth is a Driver hands down. Not his tractors he drives them with intention to put all 3 out front. Let it go season over. |

And anyone who thinks Koran isn’t a great driver is blind.......He has a 2 or three wins over terry’s v-8’s this year with a six cylinder. He is just like Terry, he knows what he is doing. |
|
Re: Does korth win with a rain out
|
my option
|
Korth is a good driver not great. He has 3 chances every hook. The best drivers in the class are Kevin Lynn, Jason Hootman, and Larry Phillips. John Srickland is very good for a guy that just started pulling in the class . |

If korth is only a good driver,then why do all the ones you say are great emulate what only a good korth does ? |

Re: Does korth win with a rain out

Being the only team in the class that can torpedo a power plant on Saturday and be up and running by Wednesday also helps win championships. I do think it's a stretch to base Korth's driving prowess on the heavy 6 cylinder. Pretty sure that rig is close to the others in terms of HP and is also on a new chassis that is probably superior to the other 2 heavies they run. |

You bring up something that I discussed with my father after Bowling Green was over--whether hook order might play into Brian's success. So, since I'm waiting on dirt to dry out (and I wanted to take a break from looking at a billion photos...) I decided to look at the finishes that Korth had this year. Three times that Korth won (out of four total wins--all with Considered), he was on the last tractor of the three in the stable. Saturday night of Brandenburg was the only time Considered won without being the last hook of the team--being the middle tractor. Four hooks of the six for the season, the third tractor to pull had the best finish--all of these being Considered, except for the Sunday of Langford, where Deadly had the best finish of the three tractors. Only once did the last tractor of the group to hook finish the worst, which was Deadly Force on Saturday night in Brandenburg. Now, looking at the first of the tractors to hook... Half the time the given tractor would finish in the middle of the other two, while the other half of the time, it would finish the worst of the three. These instances being Considered (first night of Brandenburg) and Excessive both sessions of Langford.

Wake up !! Don't you think that 3 tractors is harder ? Take a closer look 3 different set-ups , If he had one he would do better |

Dear "Hello", You might want to "Wake up !!" yourself and re-read John's post. No where in John's post did he say anything good or bad about the Chizek/Korth team. He simple stated some statistics that he thought were interesting. John didn't state whether it was better or worse to have 1, 2, or 3 tractors or whether is was harder to maintain more tractors, he simply listed some interesting figures from this season. John, Thanks for the interesting info. Based on the small sample size it's kind of hard to know whether having three shots at driving in the class is an advantage or whether the "Considered" tractor is just a superior setup compared to the other two. I really wish they had a few more hooks to see what the statistics would say. From a statistical standpoint, having multiple attempts is an advantage (that's just simple math), but doe's it really make the driver better with each pass or does it just increase his odds of winning? Would it become a liability to have too many hooks in a class? Is three attempts any better than two? Would four attempts be better than three? Or would you get to a point where you start to overthink things? Jake Morgan Owner, PULLOFF.COM Independent Pulling News This page is a free service. The cost is covered out of my pocket.

different?

"Hello", how is it that those 3 Chizek/Korth LSS setups are different? I have always been under the impression they are (rather) identical. But I may be wrong. Educate us, please. |

One is 3-turbo, the other two are 4-turbo, but they're not the same 4-turbo setup. Jake Morgan Owner, PULLOFF.COM Independent Pulling News This page is a free service.

Those guys are great drivers.But they have always sat on the the best euquipment top of the class money can buyI,raced dirt circle track for one season i drove a new car my neighbor built and first race got second in the heat and won the feature won the point the first year out and until then had never been to a race or sat in a race car and i dont watch it on TV,Long story short it wasnt my driving, His car was that far ahead of the money spent to put it there the same car won 3 years in a row with 3 different drivers |

Re: Does korth win with a rain out

Rumor has it Korth isnt pulling next year I guess time will tell on that and all this speculation of his ability. Like him or hate him he has the wins, titles and rings. Maybe more than anyone else. Jake Morgan in your knowledge any 1 person have more? If he would be losing ya'll would be talking crap because he had 3 chances and didnt win. |

Hello

Jake - sorry about confusion but I was commenting it all not John's - John is one of the few that used his brain lol |

Re: Does korth win with a rain out
|
To the untrained eye, but only slightly deaf ear, i've heard Brian say that they use the results / his decision from the first tractor to adjust on the 2nd, and then the 3rd. I think he said hitch height adjustment, possible driving style too. Which does seem to be supported by the results i quoted. |

Re: Does korth win with a rain out

Larry Phillips pulled 2 & 3 tractors for a few yrs as well. 6 yrs it looks like, his highest finish appears to be 3rd in those yrs. Strickland pulled 2 a couple yrs also. Highest appears to be 3rd as well during that time. More doesnt always mean better I guess. Korth pulled 2 tractors for 6 yrs & won the GN title 5 of those yrs. 3 tractors only last 3 yrs. Mark Peissig should be mentioned for his driving & 4 GN wins in this class as well. Great driver.... Esdon, the King of Smoke. & I'm sure there are more these are just the ones that immediately come to mind . |
