Hawaii Tractor Pulling

I have been in Hawaii this past week and I was curious if there was ever any tractor pulling over here? Googled it and I see there was actually a pull in the Aloha Bowl Stadium in 1984! Not much I could find about the event. Can anyone elaborate? Know who attended/classes/sanctioning body? Maybe it has been discussed on here before? Thanks |

I know there is drag racing...... Maui has their own dragstrip and I think there's one on the big island.
If anything it would be on the big island there's not probably enough agriculture on any of the other islands. Maybe Maui |

Bot sure what classes ran for sure. My guess would be Mods, TWDs, and FWDs. Ellenbaum Thumb sleds were sent out there (Logan Thomas I believe has that one now) and it was a USHRA event.

John Borba promoted pulls there in the mid eighties. Bud and Steve Jaske pulled there in 85-86. They would bring in a bunch of CA pullers. Dan Mayer www.pulling-reference.com Dedicated to Preserving the History of Tractor & Truck Pulling |

I was contacted by a gentleman from Hawaii early this year, he was talking about coming to the mainland and wanted some ideas about places to go watch pulls as a road trip. I suggested to him Hillsboro and BG and gave him contact info for those events...didnt hear back, fuel and air travel costs mustve derailed him and his sons. For the life of me I cant remember his name but I remember him mentioning that he had an uncle that had a 4wd truck called "Poi Puller" that pulled some in the early eighties. Super nice dude to talk with and share info with. Bryan Lively - |
