surmising,
1) No reason to be a jerk.
2) His favorite tractor could be a 2255 Oliver, which had the 3208 cat. Just because my handle is Platypus doesn't mean I pull an aquatic mammal.

Do you have factory brakes? Putting hats and calipers will make it roll a lot easier.

Fuel is reliable, consistent, and testable. $10/gallon fuel is even competition, and easy teching.
If you don't care for that, you can drink your own cup of tea out of your Styrofoam cup.

Regardless of the track material, all of the pullers pull on the same track. It takes some more strategy than horsepower. Enjoy the pulling in January. The Southern Promotions group does a great job.

The rule reads on page 12, line 19 of the Outlaw Truck and Tractor Pulling rule book "Any weights or safety equipment lost while hooked to the sled will be cause for disqualification."

The System One filter on the one tractor is the large truck type style. The mounting base is a two piece design. The top is removable to check a prescreen. Between the two pieces of the base there tends to be slight leakage.

I said nothing about what the announcer says. You talked about supporting the business. Throwing in now what the announcer says is irrelevant. A sponsor looks into an investment for future sales. I don't know about you, but whenever a sponsor puts money towards my class, I will support them. Majority of pullers are farmers. So not only will they use the 2.5 gallons of bio, they will use it i

It is not that B100 is funny fuel, it is the potential additives that could be added.

While Clark's does run well, has hook number been taken into consideration? I was not there to know this, but the track difference between first hook and last hook can vary over a class of fifteen.
