540 does not make it a "Red Only" class, believe me! The Blue tractors hold their own as do the Green tractors in the Interstate Mod Turbo class. Had the D-21 been running all season I am sure they would have been at or near the top 10 in points without a question. There are a couple Case tractors in the series as well but they run a very limited schedule with Interstate Pullers. But rest assured

Light Limited Pro maybe?

I too agree with the A pump. That will be the "Limiting" factor instead of restrictor tubes, designated turbo size, etc. Keep the teching simple. Components not needed (I am all for them in SS and PS) but with the growth of this new class over time, its a good place for the oem chassis tractors being replaced with components in the SS and PS classes.

LOL! Don't go there Rocky. You're fighting a losing battle. I have wanted to jump in on this subject several times but haven't. Hamburg did the right thing as did PPL. It's a free world, have at it!

Even at 8,500lbs. these guys here will sometimes have to play with the throttle some to get the 24.5's to hook so it really is a drivers class. All of them are good drivers. I am sure I have a couple runs on You Tube of this class. I will have to check. As for RPM's, I am unsure of an exact avg but they turn them pretty good and are very reliable at 540. I am sure Curt Forrester will ch

Thats right Orange Man. 8,500 is a good weight for this setup. They run 8,500 Lim Pro and 9,300 SF together in Western PA. Again, there is no guaranteed winner before the class is over there either. Those 8,500 540 cube Lim Pro give the heavier 640 Super Farms all they can handle and vise versa. Fun to watch them run together.
OK I am starting to chime in too much and sounding like Jake!!

Speaking of the "other shade of Green", I seen a Duetz 9006 compete a couple times in the Lim Pro class in Western PA and it performed well against the other colors.
As for the restrictor pipe, I say no.
ITTPA Rule #6 says: Tractors allowed one turbo charger and any manifold modifications necessary to mount the turbo charger. Manifold pressure to be single stage only. No intercoolers allowe

540 is the way to go in this class. I see it work very very well here locally (MD,PA,VA, etc) with the Interstate 8,500 Mod Turbo class (same as Limited Pro, just a different name). I see Blue, Green, and Red win. I have seen Case win and a D-21 AC come very close several times. This class fields great numbers at every hook and they spin out with authority. You can view their rules at their websi

Not sure what you are referring to as "older" but Randy DeVaughn has a good running IH 966 SS, 540 cube, big twin turbo setup. Shoot him an email roadgearfarmer@aol.com

Be happy we have pulling period in this day and age! Organizations have different ideas and that is seen in their rules. What I like is a set of rules that would comply for pullers to go where they wish (most notably the Modified 2WD class). But, when PPL or someone suggests that PPL, or whatever organization, adopt rules the same or very simular to NTPA, the bashing starts! That is what I don

Wow! Thank goodness the human side of it is ok. Sucks to hear about the equipment. I cuss drivers in cars everytime we are on the road in the motorhome. They just think you can stop on a dime or just dont care and are negligent. Good luck to Team Wild Buck for a speedy return.

You know what would be real interesting is a Gordyville trip with Henry, David and Spanky all together in one truck. That would be some interesting conversations there, lol. It was good seeing you Richard. I always enjoy visiting with ya. I am sure Jake isn't all that bad to travel with, especially with ear plugs in
