You are correct the pipeline was never in production although what I've seen it was supposed to be in use way before 2030. As I said above just talking about it makes a difference in oil futures. The rational makes no sense but it happens. Oil, leases on land that MIGHT have oil vs oil leases on land that is proven to have oil ( can you say ANWR ? ) are two totaly different things.

Another view,
While what you say is factual as you put it the fact remains that when politicians (Biden in this case) make policy it affects the markets. Biden's policies of shutting down the construction of Keystone XL, restricting oil leases, shutting down fracking and many other regulations all have an impact on oil futures as well as current prices. So yes I think I can place a big pa

I'm assuming that the track will be installed on the asphalt? If so I would think the success of the event will depend somewhat of how the track shapes up...that could be tricky.

Didn't PPL have an event in KY about five or six years ago that ran three tracks, seems like that event ran for about three years. Seems like it was sponsored by the company that Brad Moss was involved with, can't remember their name.
I never made it to Tomah when they were running three.

I'm confused, my Facebook page is full of "turn the pipeline back on". This pipeline has never been completed and has never carried an ounce of oil. Granted it's construction was halted by the current resident of the white house (I have a hard time calling such an incompetent person the President). It was also stalled by the other incompetent that was in that office before Trump.

I'm too old school for Rap. I get that the younger generation listens to it and I even like the beat just could never follow the words then when I did hear what they were saying WOW!!! Talk about degrading your own people. I remember when I was young hearing the music of my parents generation and thinking wow that's some old crap...now I listen to "Old Crap" from my younger days.

Not much trust here. It's looking more and more like Duram is going to pin the whole Russian hoax on Hilary. If it hadn't been for that the Dems would have had a lot more votes to make up.

Scales have been a point of contention as long as I've been pulling. Almost every year an agenda item is presented at the NTPA rules meetings. The agenda items are any where from requiring a concrete pad to requiring certified weights being used to test the scales after being set up at an event. For the most part most classes can deal with a couple hundred pound differences as they have a l

Look up the definition of Race and the definition of ethnicities. The definition of ethnicities or ethnic fits the the Jewish situation much more than Race. I honestly do not remember hearing a discussion about Jewish people and them using the word race as opposed ethnicity to describe them.

In a word no, I think a lot of this no-citizen voting stuff comes from the fact that they want vote on stuff that affects their families like school boards and local governments. If thats the assimilate and become a legal citizen.

The answer to your question is that something fell off of the tractor during it's pass down the track. Even if Larry didn't like the tractor he was not the finish line flagman and from his position behind the start line I don't think he had any say in the matter. I was at the start line when it happened so did not see what came off of the tractor.

I'm old and I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around this, I still think she was more right than wrong from the standpoint of the genocide being about religion more that so called race. As I said before just because Hitler said it was race doesn't make it so. Why would we use Hitlers definition of race?

Several years ago the RN rules were changed to allow the Turbines more power as well as giving the Allison's a larger super charger overdrive. Since that change several events have been won by Turbines last summer not to mention the Bollinger's twin being very competitive when it runs with us. I don't know how closely anyone follows RN Mods but there are wedge tractors out there

Insurance is the simplistic answer, any large organization likley has pretty good insurance that will cover these things. I guarantee that buildings like the one in Shipshewana and NFMS demand that those putting on the events carry adequate insurance. I know NTPA carries very large amounts per incident meaning for every person that is injured.

Dieselpower,
About 5 years ago there was a pull in some small town USA that had a lot of diesel truck classes and to promote the pull a whole bunch of diesel trucks were going to parade through town and "Roll Coal" everywhere they went.

Cody,
I guess I have a different opinion, there are numerous levels of pulling just like in most any sport. If someone wants to run a mod tractor there are about 10 or 12 different levels, choose one that fits your budget.
We ran the econo mod class for about 15 years because that is all we could afford. As we could afford it we stepped up though the classes all the way through NTPA GN.

The left is bound and determined to keep the "Trump is the Devil" narritive alive. They scared to death that he is going to run again. You have to wonder what their next big Trump scandal will be, the "Russian Collusion " story was the biggest lie of the century and in a lot of ways it worked. Along with the whole voting irregularities.

While it's sad to see your family getting out of pulling it's great that we have gotten to see a class act for all of these years. From the first pass I remember your Dad making at the NFMS (on a tractor that I think he had just bought) to the monster pass he made at BG in 2019 to another PPL points title it has been entertaining. That brings me to a comment I made about Ken Ven

We often see celebrities and sports figures railing about how horrible police brutality is in neighborhoods of color. You never hear them talk about who kills 99% of people of color, you never see them go into these neighborhoods to rail against the people that commit these crimes. Wonder why that is, could it be because they can't blame it on "White Supremist", they would have to blame it
