Truck & Tractor Pulling
Truck & Tractor Pulling is the single most aggressive form of competition as a show of brute power and strength. A puller’s objective(s) sound simple enough; hook your vehicle to a weight transfer sled and pull as much as you can, as far as you can. However, this is where simplicity ends. For pulling, ideal track conditions need to be a smooth, flat, straight section of track approximately 300 feet in length. The smallest flaw in the track can stop a puller. There are many classes to choose from in pulling; there are the local favorites: 4500, 5500, and 6500lbs local 4x4 classes. There is also the 8000lbs unlimited pickup class where anything goes. There’s also a series of modified classes including: 2wd blown pickups, and single engine blown tractors. Some of the more popular tractor classes include Allison Aircraft Tractors; where a modified tractor has an airplane engine for a power plant. More include super stock and super farm tractors, then there is the real crowd pleaser, the multi engine tractors.
