Nytpa Old Days
|
I think it is great that NYTPA is going back to the 80’s on their classes. Just found out they have kinda brought back a super stock open class. They added another class within a class and gave them additional weight. But don’t fret it is still all counted as 1 class. Just 3 different weight on the alcohol tractors and 3 different weight on the diesels. Not sure if the Modify or two wheel drive trucks can jump in yet, but I don’t see why not. They could just have one continuous class of pulling would not have to change the boat. Love to see the rule book lay out for that class.
Does anyone know if ESP out this way will be doing the same? |

Yes, and the new days will be filled with joy and sunshine, just like the old with you pulling from a keyboard |

I thought they would have learned after last year's schedule...... Pretty clear what the Fair's thought about the 3 different options with the Super Stock class. |

Couldn't the limited pros pull with the super farms, or was that something else? |

Might have a little something to do with them whining at the meeting and storming out ? |

Any of you keyboard punchers here ever pulled much with NYTPA? If so, what tractor is yours? Only reason I ask is as a sled operator who frequents this clubs events, it is quite impressive how much the tracks are the great equalizer in those "combo classes". Where in certain parts of the country a light pro vs a super farm would be the light pros class to run away with hands down, that's not the case in eastern NY. Same in the SS class with diesels, alkys, & pros all together. I'm not endorsing the club or anyone in particular, just saying unless you've seen it for several seasons, don't knock it til you've tried it! |

It's a one year deal. Get your facts strait. And if your a super, and are scared of the weight, fix and build your machine to compete at the level your mouth runs at |

What I heard
|
So whta I heard is that they are going to add a class for 2020 that is 640ci with a 4.1 turbo I think I dont know about the turbo size but I'm thinking its 4.1 and not whatever you can run. Next the super farm and lite pros run toghther but the sf they run a 3x3 and 640ci and the lite pros are 540 and whatever turbo they can run. They are going to let the ones that are 640ci with a 4.1run in the heavy super stock class in 2019 but in 2020 they will have there own class is what I heard. |

Nytpa is a club where everyone is a winner!! Can’t compete with a tractor no problem, they’ll give you more weight. If u still can’t compete they will take some weight away from the bully who’s beating you. If that doesn’t work they will just make up a new class, and if that doesn’t work they will make sure the big mean bully gets test hook everytime they show up!! |
Re: Nytpa Old Days
|
What?
|
Is this me I can't follow this.. Or maybe I can. So why are people building something not for the class that they can't allegedly compete and asking for special exceptions so they can?. |

Greed

Lets just Think about that. I know you have only sat threw a few meetings but there are several members that all they worry about is how much more money PPL is going to give us. Look at the big picture. We want them to re write the rule boom for a few people that want to build a tractor for a class tnat isnt even offered yet. Sounds like those 3-4 tractors are only worried about themselves. Oh yeah dont forget then a year later they want the rule book changed back. Sounds like PPL is going to be doing alot of work for couple tractors. ALSO sounds like the President let things get out of control |

Logan, your posting in middle of this thread is correct in what you say.
Many places in pulling land have combination classes. Yes, sometimes the rules and / or weight need to be fine tuned to hopefully make the competition fair, but overall, they are a successful class. If the announcer knows his/her stuff and can relate it to the crowd, the class is even more exciting to see how each class type vehicle fares and which class vehicle becomes the winner. It is not just the tractor combination classes. Yes, combination truck classes, too. In my assessment, Rick Feicht of Full Puil Productions has been the leader in producing successful combination classes. |
Re: Nytpa Old Days

Don't forget the promoters still have the option of three super stock classes....alky, diesel, and super stock combined(one class both alky and diesel)?!?!?!?!?
Last year there were 18 events with Super Stocks....14 Super Stock combined events....3 events had Alky and Diesel seperate....and 1 offered just the Alcohol class. SMH..... |
