    Well that's cool , been years since I was at a pull but just a local event. Must be awesome at a national event.
    Guess I would compare it a national drag race event verses a local track.

    As far as keeping up with SKEETER , probably not going to happen. He has that one in the bag.

    There are 13 classes that pull twice over the 3 day event. Here is just a tiny sample.

    https://photos.app.goo.gl/6cXSYGmS3hvSbyUg9

    This is a superstock unlimited. They convert diesel engines to methanol. 4000 hp +/-

    This is an unlimited modified puller. Only limited by weight. Any engine or number of engines can be ran.

    This is a 2wd class rig.

    Almost forgot the money shot! They were very good IMG_4631.jpeg IMG_4632.jpeg

    I’ll turn the bones into broth in the crockpot. It’s wicked good in soups, stew, or chilli. IMG_4634.jpeg

    It is. So much so you are ready to take a break from pulls for a while.

    Not a chance of that happening! Actually quite the opposite I’m afraid.
