 Topic: Pull at Frederick Md

The local Green tractor store is having their Spring pull on May 3rd. You should be able to find details at www.gladhilltractor.com. I plan on getting there with my 2 CA's. It's about the only place locally that will allow me to pull my turbocharged CA.

PaulB, I would definitely like to hear about how you do with the T/CA. If they would allow a 2500 class at Tunica I would make the haul to compete. Our CA does real well in 2.5/3K classes. I don't want all the particulars, but what motor did you use for the T application? May the orange be with you! good luck in MAY. dgerth

Of the few ORANGE tractors that showed up we dominated what we ran in. Our class was 3000 open, a bit outclassed for the two CAs. The non-turbo CA was the test puller and after a number of false starts because of the sled malfunctioning, it won the class by an impressive lead. Second place was a local good running big cube WC. I took third spot inches behind the WC with the turbo CA. Balance was my downfall. If I had gotten the test runs like the other CA things would have been different, that's for another day. The local hot Farmall H was a dismal 4th followed by a couple 66 Olivers and a Farmall B that could barely move the sled.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

Looks like the whole video was done by a drone. In one segment you can see the drone's shadow in the video. Here is a clickable link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-buNl2ZVwk4
