Is NTPA ever going to post their rules online like every other pulling org that's in the 21st century? Or are they going to milk charging for an actual physical rule book for as long as they can?

I've found that creating a video of the entire class is pretty much the best way to do it, if you can add results at the end, it's even better. But results aren't always available.
I would not recommend uploading each individual tractor, unless something spectacular happened..
When I would post links of the classes for our ECIPA events, I would just embed each class video to

Curious how that will affect the crowds?

Story I heard last year from a ISF board member, they tore out turns 1 & 2 of the track to enlarge the midway .
2017 is suppose to be the last pull in front of the grandstand...
Plan is to build a new arena of sorts. Possibly a 3/8th mile dirt track and new bleachers where turns 3 & 4 are and in the parking lot just beyond turns 3 & 4.. Suppose to start construction after the 2017 fair.

Floating finishes are good for probably 90% of the pulls out there..
Pulloffs will only work now a days, if you have a GOOD announcer. The announcer is what has to build excitement in the crowd to get them riled up for the pulloff.. IF you don't have a good announcer than can build that excitement, don't even bother, you'll lose the crowd and you may as well just move on to the

I see it's a Fantasy truck pull. No other mention of any other classes.
Not picking on this pull in particular, but there are so many ways to get the word out about your pull to attract fans and pullers. Most are free even... Not sure how you can run a successful event if nobody knows anything about it?

Had a great turnout for the 1st ever Linn County Classic at The Linn County Fair, 61 hooks in 3.5 hours. The team pull experiment turned out great, will need a few tweaks for next year though to make it more competitive.
Thanks to everyone who participated!

Getting quite a bit of interest in the 8,500lb 3" Open class during the day, should be interesting class!
If you're looking for a hook on Saturday, we can more than likely fit you in!
Track is looking good and will be covered on Friday in case of any potential moisture that might fall Friday night.

That is why I hate filming 2 track events! Unless you're up high in the air, the track maintenance equipment is always in the way usually.
Jesse's videos are top notch!

As much as I'm not huge fan of facebook.. It lets you connect with SO many more casual fans. These are people who might go to 1-2 pulls a year (Max!) if their lucky.
Create the event on FB.. it's free. Share it. Casual fan clicks "interested" on the event and forgets about it. Event gets close and FB reminds them about it. Casual fan has nothing going on, scrolling through FB while o
