What I should have said is who do you think is the best sled & driver. Out of the sleds we use in my area I feel Craig Storm & the Nearpass N0 14 does an excellant job.
When I hook to his sled I feel confident & he always the sled set right. He lets u run & shuts everyone down with consistancy.

I pull in mn state and region 3 steve johnson and the orange ironman do an excellent job! I also enjoy pulling Jonny Peterson does a good job aswell, these guys are a huge part of every show and get very little credit for it!!

Have gone to a lot of pulls in my short 17years but i think in the Ohio area, Mr.Singer has top notch sleds and does an awesome job. Maby Mr.Stimmle should ask Singer for some advice on how to not only operate but also maintain a sled, every pull I have been to I have yet to see a show run smooth when the TrackBoss is there trying to stop the trucks and tractors.

Steve Johnson and the ironman orange do a great job not only in region 3 and 5 but in minnesota as well and if you notice steve is in the orange sled at TOMAH and Bowling green what does that tell you!!!

Can't beat Mike on Mean Green. May not be the fanciest sled but he sticks them all down there pretty far without repulling the whole class. Very little down time when he is doing the show.

I have to give my vote to Sugar Ray Lowry. He lets you run fast and doesn't hit you like a ton of bricks. I wished we hooked him everytime.

I always liked the old Otwell sled and the heavy old boat that Tampico uses. Love them old sleds!!

I know the worst. Gary Schyvinch with the attitude adjuster. It is almost a better show when it breaks. Can't be on time either.

No matter what you folks say the best sled and driver has to be Santa . what other sled can move so fast and make that many stops? Just like most of the other sled operators if you tick him off you are SOL. Remember Santa stopped with ho ho ho only three not Tiger took him seven or so

Man you nailed it, with backing into things and smashing the cab up, getting it picked off the guard rail when it gets to swinging because the back end is so high off the ground, the running out of fuel during the pull and spending hrs to get it runnin again plus the other break downs, it doesn't get any better. That's why it's BSTP sled of the year, opps I'm wrong Brad and the Terminator was the sled of the year.

I don't know what they did to the Terminator last winter, but it sucked this year.

Over the range of 40 years of hooking on to sleds,time in and time out I'll hook to the old pro,the father of sled inovation,and without a doubt the best operator of them all,if anyone can come out of the box set perfect,with so many different tracks and conditions of the track,they have cussed him,copied him,backstabbed him,and underbid to buy the bussiness,but the master is Dave Hager,it is nothing less than an honor to back up to his sled you know you are going to get to take a run for the win.
