The whole pulling team really has to work the mushy track from 9am to just before the drivers meeting. The sun came out and a dry NW wind and working the mush with a AC D grader we actually got it pullable after Shreveport got 4 1/2 " of rain Wednesday and Thursday night. My goal is to take a pix of all the AC pullers today and post them here no later than sometime Sunday My first pull in 2500 weighted was a fill pull for 1st. Got a 1st in 3000 weighted way ahead of a 2nd place nice Oliver 66. A third in 3500. Had too much weight ahead of the rear axle . Trying again in 3500 today with a balance adjustment.. Should do better than a 3rd place. Biggest AC puller here was a D17. Would like to see some bigger Allis pullers next year in this area.

Ken, Hope the rain holds out enough you can pull! If you get a chance snap some pictures too. Last pull I went to I got third place out of three tractors. The D17 in the 5000 lb class just had no bite on that hard track. Even had the long drawbar on. Regards, Chris
