Side Note: We are no longer accepting PayPal donations. They have changed their terms of service and stated they would fine PayPal users for spreading "misinformation" and "hate, violence, racial or other forms of intolerance that is discriminatory". PayPal did not provide definitions for some of these vague terms. Woke corporate policies regarding "misinformation" could result in an automatic fine of $2,500 which would have been removed directly from the customer’s PayPal account. PayPal did backdown from some of their policies but quietly implemented portions of them in later terms of service. A financial institute has no right to monitor social media accounts or speech. This is unacceptable and I'll no longer do business with PayPal.

I seen a few class changes, there's no longer antique classes, 6500 pro farm, and 15mph farm stock. I think this will hurt a group of pullers that many of us don't think about. Gordyville gave a place for the guys who built tractors on a budget to pull on a big stage in the winter. Not that i totally agreed with the rules in these classes but i will miss the variety these tractors gave to the show. I'd like to see them try to get pro stocks back as well and if they dont have enough time in a 3 day show for all of these classes then it may be time to add another day to the show. If they're getting enough interest from fans and pullers I'd say its worth a shot.

As Bryan said there is a curfew put in place on when the pull needs to be done (Midnight) each night or there will be an additional fee for every hour past midnight put in place by the building. I do want to make a correction to the schedule. The 12,000 15MPH class is on for Session 1 (Thursday Afternoon) and 11,000 Pro Farm for Session 5 (Saturday Afternoon). That was my fault when adding the classes to the website they were left off. We strive to offer as many pullers the opportunity to pull indoors as possible. We look forward a great event and an even better show than last year at the MEC with 1 year under us. Every year we try to put the best show possible for the fans and pullers. We want to thank all the pullers and fans that have stayed with us through all the ups and downs the last several years! If any puller has a question about the online registration you can email me at zoercwi@gmail.com

Why does a sled from so far away need to come to Shipshe? When Nearpass #15 resides only an hour away.
And 2 or 3 other very capable sleds reside not too far away in northeast Indiana.
All of those sleds handle during the summer, the kind of power seen at the winter Shipshe pull.
Certainly those sleds should be cheaper to rent, as they do not have to travel far to get work.
Is the smoke removal system something that Klint owns? Guess that is the whole key to the riddle right there.

It's no riddle, it's pretty simple: Klint and the Bungarts have a longstanding, year-round working relationship. They have the logistics and infrastructure to do it. Its a monumental job to prepare an indoor facility for a pull and they have been doing it for several years in tandem. Keep in mind that this isn't a snub of Nearpass or any of the other high quality sleds in the area...if it ain't broke then don't fix it.

So it's still 8 passes? other than some expense explanations, never answered that part of my question. I fully understand everything going up, but we have to see added value to that big hike. What was 132 per person is now going to be 195. Thanks Jake for trying to answer it. While many will still bite the bullet and go, I bet that will thin the crowd down some.
