I seen quit a few of the same tractors pulling twice. Whats with this? Fairboard members maybe? Its either one hook for everybody or two hooks. Make it fair to everyone. Other than that the new track wasnt to bad. It always takes a few years for the tracks to get better when starting out from new. Good show guys. Just gotta get a few kinks worked out.

Part of the problem is no one does anything unless there is complaints from fellow pullers. How about that speed limit joke. Other places you get 2 warnings then your done. Alot of them were over 3 or 4 times then there was a 460 going 6 or better the whole way in the 4 mph class. Like you said good pull just a few kinks to work out. John [Reply]  [No Email]

I WAS VERY UNHAPPY when they let guys double hook. Since I would have gladly did it myself too. When taking phone calls I told about 10 people they could only hook once. As far as the speed limit no 460 ran in the 4 MPH classes. All 4 MPH classes were 1950 and older. Farm 5000 was 5MPH one 460 was D'q another should have been but didn't place anyway. Also an Allis and a Case were D'q in other classes. I can't think of any others who went over??? Every pull I have been to with WILD ROSE and a speed board is a free safety zone then thats it. If you go over your done. Why cant you stay under your speed when you can see it???? I am happy that someone brought up the double hooking. This will help me prove my point to the fair board members. I tried 3 or 4 times to change their mind but they didn't seem to care. Thanks for comming hope to see you again Josh 763 370 1321. [Reply]  [No Email]

I have spoken to you josh at several pulls and really like the way your trying to take the princeton pull. Keep up the good work it is noticed!! John [Reply]  [No Email]

Sure didn"t look like it to us. Thgat fair board either has to make it fair to everyone otherwise a lot of people arnt going to show up for the pull. But I was amazed the track was a lot nicer this year. But maybe they should scratch the skidloader idea for grading and have a grader tractor. The wild rose skid usually has a grader bar that they can bring with for the show. Then it would of been a lot smother of a track. [Reply]  [No Email]

If I had it my way it wouldn't have happened. I can think of for sure 3 people who did it. I will work on it. I wish we didn't get that little 2 minute shower I think the track would have been alot better. Josh [Reply]  [No Email]
