Years ago jake had a opinion page on the cubic inches being too high and some people didn't like what he wrote. I thought he hit the nail on the head.

I appreciate the Pro stock pullers who stepped up and stop this. I know Iam going to take flack for saying this but the future of the class is the big block deere. Period. Now don't get me wrong I WILL NOT say anything bad about what Mr.Shipley has figured out or Harts motor or the boyd big blocks. They have all used blocks allowed by the rules and have a considerable amount of power than o

Apparently you don't understand. Without the helpers there is no pull. Period knowing mark like I do he isn't going out and finding the hardest most impossible people to work with to HELP at this great pull. Maybe if you can't be courteous and patient you should stay home.........

Don turned down the winning hook, that's pulling. Bahl won it. Plain and simple. I was not in the pits last night so if anything happened I can't comment on it cuz I don't know. Wish they would have had one more class. It was a beautiful night for a pull

I agree but I have no idea what ANY organization could have done. I remember when is was a kid in the early 90's and Bryan and Ernie's tractor was the thing to watch. Fans would drive great distance to see it run as there was never anything like it before. I know this topic has been beat to death before but I still think a USS hooked in to the track will win most times. Just my though

The only class maybe would be llss with rules being the same. otherwise numbers are pretty good. At least I think from the pulls I have been to. You need to clarify what classes your referring to.

Randy bader hooked in Monroe. Have no idea if Troy or randy will hook again this year. Have no clue about smithback. Birkholtz, John Meier jr, and bob nhiles all moved from hot farm to light pro. Have heard rumors of a couple more guys building light pros but, no proof yet

I was told cyclone machine did work on them. sounds ligit to me since two other tractors in ohio proudly have cyclone machine decals on the side of there tractors and they sound the same way. if all this is true then protest them, have them tore down, lose your money and realize there is a engine builder that knows what he (is obviously) doing besides the same old REI power plants. which we all

In 2005 in dubuque at the NTPA pro stock class, Kurt wielman had a huge pass in the pull off that I still can't believe got beat but, Carl smith got him. What I will always remember is when Carl was still hooked to the sled Kurt went over shook his hand and obviously told him congrats! I always thought that was a classy move

Not needed in my opinion. They are not close to what the pros were ten years ago which is when the conversions started. Forget HP numbers. Look at the torque numbers when comparing 680 inch motor to a 540

I certainly don't disagree with the boost limits being discussed but, pro stocks explode like this and even light pro stocks have. granted they don't lift the top end as high as kent's did. Geared green laid the top end out of his last year and I thought the Allis challenger light pro lifted the hood really hard last year. I for sure don't have the answer to the problem but
