I pulled at a cancer benefit pull years ago in NY and an old timer (like me now) brought an old truck out on the track that was like what a medicine man on the old western shows had. He kept arguing in fun with the officials and the sled operator to let him pull the old truck. The crowd chanting let him pull! It didn't have any hitch but the clowning around by all was great. That was over 20

Tires are a strange part of pulling. I've run the same style Firestone 23 radial on farmstock at a low tire pressure from 8-15 and run the same tire at 28# on our Hot farm. If I go too high on the farm stock, it's detrimental and if I go below 28 on the hot farm it bounces. Running the same weight in both classes 10,000+-. Wheel speed is the difference. The best farm stock tire I ever r

Breaking Barriers Pod Cast has some great interviews on You Tube of some of those people mentioned and more. Gary does a great job with his interviews. I'll add Sidenstricker to the class. His powering up the JD 404 to pull with led to the JD 466.

Cover the sandpile with a heavy tarp. That would stop the sand from entering the intake.

I live streamed the show. I thought the whole weekend went really well. I was disappointed for the PS class being last on Friday night maybe there was a concern of the smoke tube failing. A large portion of the fans had left. Then there was a miscommunication about the first tractor coming back and everyone else started to leave. Never got to see Diaz get his plaque because the livestream was cu

I'm not sure what the point of the post is but classes are only affordable to those that can afford them.

I'm just curious what is the age is of those in charge of IHRA. That makes a difference on how long it might last. The previous owner of PPL had it a long time . If it's run like a business then there is a time to buy and a time to sell. Lucas lasted a long time and got out because why?

The turbo is just one example how the cost of pulling has gone crazy and out of control. I don't know what a 4.1 turbo cost but if a Hot farm 3x3 is around $6000 then that's $6000 right off the bat that has to be spent every year to stay in the game. My blood boils for the love of pulling but if I'm not willing to pay oem price for a turbo on our money maker farm tractor and go to

Did David Brown have a row crop tractor? I've only seen what I would call a utility tractor. There was a dealer close to me when they were still being sold. It's not as much fun for me since the sheet metal and engines don't have to match in the big money classes. I was a big PS fan but prefer the lower classes now.

It would be neat to know who all those pullers are. Breaking Barriers Sunday Pod Cast has Ron Perry on it talking about Solid Junk. The so. md. dirt farmer on YouTube from Maryland has some old pictures and a video of it pulling at the Buck in Lancaster Pa. also.

Die Hard now Whiskey Hangover came to Northeast Pa. about 20 miles north of me. It's still green. Adam Diaz that ran the CIH Whiskey Business bought it. Was Die Hard at Simons last?

This is ridiculous. If your going to ask those types of questions then-How many trucks do they have on the road. I think there was a trucking business that had a lot on the road that I still see on the road who had multiple SS's. How many quarries does a guy have, how big is his fuel company. Do they make their money dairy farming or in real estate. how many students are in the class they te

Check out Bartron Supply Facebook page. Their dealership got pulled by mother Deere and are auctioning off toys etc. collected from over 70 years of business. It's a timed online auction. Includes antique tractors but no newer equipment.

Go on The New AgTalk web site. They'd be glad to answer that question. Get them started on the 2 mentioned above and it will go from there.

If you run in the 466 class does that mean the cubes can only be 466+- a few cubes or does it mean you can have a 466 block but can really be any cube? Seems to be a variation of this with pulling organizations. What are your thoughts?

We run Penn Grade 20/50 in our hot farm. I know a fuel/oil supplier that runs it in his 2 Case Pro-Stocks. Those stickers on tractors for oil don't mean too much.

Glad to see all the Northeaster pullers in . It's neat to see pullers from my area of Pa. that I personally know and some I've pulled with at some point through the years.

In my area of Pa. some SF pullers went to 4.1 and were doing well. Do you think component 4.1's will put the stock frame ones at a disadvantage? Seems like they get a good class running and out comes the bigger check books and here we go again.

Having a pull at the Buck has nothing to do with an Amish crowd. It's the most famous place to pull in the Mid East. Ntpa dropped pulling here years ago and I don't know why. We'd love to pull there just to say we did. Lancaster is my favorite place to go for a ride. I'm 150 miles north and buy farm equipment and parts in that area.

I'm offended Pa. wasn't listed as a major pulling state. Just kidding! I've only been to a few national pulls but remember Dan from NY state pulls. He was good. Keystone National announcers are really good. On a regional/local level here in Northeastern and Central Pa. Davey May does a great job. He knows the pullers, tractors and knows pulling as a puller himself. He's been d

I totally agree with a light sled setting. We hit 27 mph at a pull a few weeks ago and usually at 24. Rick Crouse is the best I know of in the East for real good sled settings. He knows his tractors and trucks. There were 3 nights and a day of pulling everything from farm pace, gas pickups of all classes and different Diesel pickup classes, Semi, open farm and hot farm. He never had to reset the

I doubt it and you need a "super 466" with no cooler if it's the 466 class we tried pulling with. You have to run 30+mph and spin the wheels at the end! We were running about 600cc and got whipped by 30+ feet.
