Has anyone every been to their "super pull"?
My AC won't be ready but was curious what kind of turn-out to expect this weekend.

I've been to their fall show but there was only a handfull of tractors pulling then. (but acres of old iron on display.

Has anyone pulled farm stock in FL? If so can a true stock tractor still remain competative? Its been 10 years or so since I've pulled in a true farm stock club (no cut tires, no overbore, 87 octane, etc. I would like to get back in the game with my WC if I can find a local club that isn't overrun with modifieds.

Never been but one of our club members went down there a few years back with his Farmall M and said the competition was heavy and his M is no slouch.

Made it through about half of the pull before the rain came (on saturday).  Great show but they certainly had a difficult time with the transfer sled and prepping the track.  I only say one AC pull it looked like a wd or wd45.  
Some pictures from some of the interesting bits:

Although I have never been to that show it is my understanding that the pull is a whole lot light on rules and even lighter on enforcement. Think of it as a  "bring what you got and hope you got enough" type deal.
