New tractors for 2025, and who's stepping away

There are photos of a new mod out of the Nelson stable from TX on Facebook. It showed a twin setup but was posted it may hold 4 or even 5 engines.Not sure what this means for the current mod(s).
I believe Chad Haggerty is getting close to having his light mod done, but he could confirm. If it gets finished, I haven't heard if he will run both that and the 2wd. A new alky ss debuted late this year with Kubota sheet metal. Marty Harrell, maybe. I hope this tractor ventures farther from the Carolinas. It is a beautful piece of machinery. Who else is building new or changing classes? On the flip side, who is taking time off from pulling next year? |

Nelson's looks like it was setup to be a twin or triple setup only.
Chad is selling his mod. Marty's tractor isn't new just reskinned. Brent Yaron Hooked Up Pulling Productions hookeduppullingproductions@gmail.com |

I have not sold the mod chassis. Since it has not sold I have started building fenders for it. Still have a bunch of money to spend on parts so it’s as life allows things to happen at this point. Probably would have been done if I didn’t run the 2wd this summer. There’s no plan of running both unless I win the lottery. |

Years ago I read that Bill was going to name the tractor "Hauling Ass", but his wife persuaded him to go with "Cruising Mule" instead. |

Thanks Mark for that tidbit of information on such a great name for a tractor. Thanks IH 5488 for letting know Cruising Mule is going to back out in the future. It was always great to see it running. I am sure it will be a show stopper (it always was) if it is coming out of the CHOAS Shop. #REDPOWER |

Does anyone know who bought the “general stupidity” semi? I saw it had sold and made its way to a hook in MN |

I believe Gene Dunn bought Laribee's Shameless semi, and indicated he may run at BG this year. |

Gene had Shameless for a while now from what I heard? Didn't hear much about him this year other than the pullers championship. Was he out much this year? |

I think mostly OSTPA. He has a stable. Lady Butterfly, Twisted Kitty. I think he ran 2 others in past years, not sure about this year. |

Gene runs OSTPA and only had two semis out this year. Armbender and Armbender II are the other two and I know he was waiting on a motor to be finished for one of them. He was in a tight points battle with Scott Ruhl and his new semi this summer. Brent Yaron Hooked Up Pulling Productions hookeduppullingproductions@gmail.com |

He has the twisted kitty and the lady butterfly out this year. He came up short to Scott in the points chase. Scott won by 3 and several members in the class protested to find Gene putting air bags on the front axle to raise it, allowing a drawbar height increase. Then after weighing in would let the air out of the front bags. This was caught in the final 4-5 hooks of the season. |
