So you post about Lustik “breaking the internet” but no one can comment about it?? What’s the point ? I’m not sure why he is being such a winer about it after all he killed his own class by being a big part of banning the 903 tractors, then wants to drag the diesels into it ? They don’t want to run against him just like he doesn’t want to run with the 903s. |

I shut the comments off because the first comment went off topic and a nameless, anonymous, category 5 fecal hurricane would eventually erupt. My bad! Sooooo....
Obviously I misjudged the reaction that the photo would get--because IT IS witty AND funny--in my feeble opinion. I came here for a good time, not to throw stones at any puller about any thing. If you're that passionate about the 903 issue, post again--with your real name--so all parties can know exactly who you are. I am all for class-building, not class-killing and the improvement of the health of the sport at every level. It's in my literal job description. THAT ALL BEING SAID, I am geeked out about the diesels and alky tractors going head to head this week, hence my sharing of the photo....Let's have fun this week! Bryan Lively - |

I think both have the same maximum cubic inch limits. What either fuel competitor builds their engines cubic inches to, at or under the max. is their decision. |

Jake I am aware of the Chizek Daddy Dave incident, but you can’t tell me they weren’t going to get pushed out eventually anyway, and as far as only losing 2 tractors that’s not the case, there are now 6 tractors not competing in the NTPA wether it be because of differences between Chizek and Dave or the rule change or “clarification” doesn’t really matter at this point, what I am getting at is the sso class had lower numbers, lower than ssd and then a few pullers collectively decided to push them out? Not really helping their own cause but then beg for a combo class that the diesel guys aren’t particularly interested in, that doesn’t make sense to me but as they say if you can’t beat them ban them. |

Patches, I would say most are. But diesel have the 650 option with less pressure stages. |

Changing the rules to ban the 903 did NOT kill the class, to say otherwise is a gross misunderstanding of history.
As for the alcohol tractors having more cubic inches, yes they generally have 110 more cubic inches. They also generally have 2.5-3 times the boost pressure so that might help offset the difference in displacement a tiny bit.

A 650 cubic inch overhead cam diesel SSJD was built to compete it was immediately outlawed. Fred H spent a lot of time and money and after he showed what the potential was it was outlawed. He was told he could run with the alky SS now what he can run in the combined class, really? |

Team one, I am not going to argue about this but if I remember correctly, Chesik’s tractors had already left NTPA and pulled points with PPL a whole season before the rule change was made. Mr. Terry and Josh are great competitors and good people but they have been beat by Jordan as well as other Alkeys. |

Dana fair enough, but if everyone can beat them why ban them? |

It was my understanding that NTPA thought it would bring more SSO back from PPL because maybe they could be competitive but not one single tractor has come back. That in itself tells me that they must like pulling with PPL. This is just here-say. I don’t know this for a fact. I do think people are wrongly accusing Jordan. I have never heard him complain of pulling against the 903s. And Jordan was in the winner circle last year in Louisville! |

When this all blows up, just remember that all you know-it-alls without a dog in the fight caused it. Forcing guys to pull in classes they don't want will not work. And the silver bullet should win a pull against the alkys before he starts calling out the diesels. |

Grubby,
Any chance you happened to see the results of the NFMS SSO class last year? |
Re: Lustik breaks internet

Perhaps Lustik has decided if half the class were diesel it would not be as hard to be a winner in Louisville |

Grubby,
Just curious,who do you think these know it alls with no dog in the fight are? No one can force anyone to hook a class they dont want to hook. The organizations make the rules not people on web sites. S'no Farmer |

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but they have already combined the class years ago. The Diesels could hook with the whiskey burners anytime they wanted!! Some have chose to over the years at differnt events but only a select few. Combining the alcohol and the diesel ss tractors is not a new idea or concept. They already are combined! |

If it going to be a combined class there needs to be rules overhaul and both backed to 540. |

The rules do needs an overhaul combined or not .Why bann the 903S thats funny All the tractors currently pulling needs band and then a overhaul when it takes half the tractors in the United States not to show up in that class at the same place to put on a good show its pathetic .Its a good thing they drive from Nebraska .NeW York Ky Texas and who knows were else to make a 15 tractor class its really something to be proud of guys .I could have put some chocolate icing on this instead just the facts its becoming just a DUD |

I think "Broke the Internet" is a little bit of an exaggeration. |
