Sounds good to me. My question is why did they stop him when he was still moving forward?

They stopped him because it was a full pull. 158 ft on a 150 ft track. We don't see that short of a track around here, but that's what they were using for that pull. Dennis |

I kinda wondered about it being a full pull but then why does the announcer call out the feet and inches? She should have said "a full pull". I guess it's hard to get good help. LOL
I guess if I could read, it says full pull right on the screen. DUHHH ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

This pull is in Ontario. I don't think there is any mods done to the tractor. This club is antique only rules,4 mph. My Dad took the D17 to one of their pulls. Had a full pull, along with a Cockshutt 35 Deluxe. When they repulled, he beat dad by 3". They checked his pto speed 3 times in between pulls. The lady announcing is the same one that does our pulls. ------------- 35WC on steel, B with belly mower, D17 puller, D15 Series II puller, D15 Series II with loader, 608 Lawn Tractor |

| Sounds like any good running B should sound. I would doubt it is anything other than in good running condition. The sled would have been set for that weight class. A hopped up B with that sized tires on that dry looking track would have spun out if it had really been taxed. |
