If you could change one rule, what would it be? February 21, 2024 02:19AM
If you had the power to change any one rule, whether specific to one class or generally for everyone, what would you change?

Sorry, posted my response to you in the wrong thread

Pro Stock Class : no transgenDeere's

Sheet metal should match the block period. If you want to be green then have a green tractor

***I'd like the same rule in other classes to prevent green guys from having IH blocks

So should most of tractors be decaled as Chaos, Hypermax, D&R, etc? Because fewer & fewer are running any of the above. I get where you're coming from BUT its too little too late!

Allow the use of the LS With EFI in pulling. The 350 Chevy is outdated and the LS is now the hot rodders choice to make cheap power. Time to get that into pulling

EFI/Common rail should be allowed in every class. There hasn't been a carbureted truck from the factory since the mid 80's and mechanical pumps on tractors haven't been used on diesel tractors in years.

I would love to see " traction control " legal in all classes. I will not venture on how many pullers are already using it. However it would level the playing field.

Unlimited mods weight would be 12,000 with no restrictions on any powerplants

While I'd love to see what they'd be capable of with 12k and no restrictions you'd have to make sure there's two sleds there because you'd have to hook them together to stop those mods.

Would 1500hp keep everything with farm in its name still an ag chassis? Super farm pro farm hot farm mod farm?

For the record, Super Farm and many types of Hot Farm are already past that 1500 mark.

But I'll go a step further.......almost ANY class should have the option to be component. No reason to punish someone who wants to build for serviceability and parts commonality/availability. That is called spending wisely.

Make the tractor run the fuel that it ran when it left the assembly line.

Not trying to be offensive but lowering it to 640 would do nothing. It would be like changing the tires to 24.0". You'd have to lower it significantly to see any real difference.

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 realize that. A limit in the 500 ci range would be more effective. I was merely aiming at that point that it should have not ever been 680 in the first place.

For some smaller level pulling organizations, I think they should explore having a "claiming" class or classes at pulls. Like they do in horse racing. This would just be for entry level classes and the price would be set by the pullers. That would keep costs down. And an organization could offer the class as a claiming class or non-claiming if a promoter prefers. I bet it would work with farm stock or stock 4WD.

Now if it was offered in other classes, that could be interesting. Hypothetically, I don't even know what the claiming price would be for a pro stock, superfarm, light mod, etc. For it to work, the claiming price would have to be about where a typical puller would sell his ride, not how much is invested in it! Before entering such a class, I could see a puller putting on his cheapest turbo or an old set of tires just in case!

What about a turbo claim rule? February 24, 2024 01:44AM
Set a price, which depending on the class may be expensive. Have a turbo claim rule. What about that idea?

If I'm allowed to change one rule... set the max engine num to 1.

Serious, introducing a 6000lbs mod class with one engine only, and no turbines.
I assmue we can pretty much expect a hack of diversity, alike in the old days.
One all-in V8 Hemi with e.g. 18-71 or screw blower. OR
One vintage aircraft V12, with some new gadgets, billet supercharger, or turbos. OR
One industrial inline 6 or V8/10/12 with whatever how much turbos, alcohol or diesel. OR
One radial engine...

Some perhaps pretty soon start to complain: you can't beat a R3350 with only a Hemi, considering that this old dinosaur has tons of torque you can rely on.
BUT, take into account that the Hemi would have a significant advantage regarding COG positioning, driveability etc.

Probably there are many good reasons to avoid such an idea. Just let me know.
