I asked what the REST of the pull is all about; what classes are going to be pulling other than the diesel trucks? Like I said, a lot of these local pulls have antique farm tractor pulling. There is always a hundred of them that show up and they take forever-they have a speed limit on them of like 4 mph. :eek: Good thing is, you can watch one of them leave the starting line, go take a leak, pickup a couple of hotdogs, go by the truck and get a beer and still be back in time to see him finish his pull... :bleah:

Thanks for the link. Our ole truck looks pretty good. Like I said, great pull. The driver is actually my good buddy and he is the owner of the rig, I just haul and sling the wrenches. When ya'll decide where the next pull is, make sure to get ahold of me and we'll come down and support it. Thanks again.
