Does NATPA allow speed monitoring devices on tractors. Our club is discussing this to update our rules.
Thanks, Leroy Nurenberg

(quoted from post at 18:29:29 03/27/13) Why would you complain about speed monitoring devises the speed limit is slow and you want to get as close as possible to it. I don't run one on my tractor and can pull with the NATPA. If you have a smooth running engine that isn't out of control you can just run the speed limit classes with out a monitor Good competition is want it is all about. why are you complaining about them.
(quoted from post at 12:38:30 04/01/13) This was a thread about opinions, but everyone has gotten all bent out of shape over a discussion of speedometers.
How about this,
What is keeping me from running my tractor with a PLC (industrial computer)? I have the speed input from the speedometer all I have to do is put a stepper motor in place of the governor to control the engine. Operating the tractor would consist of me setting the speed of the tractor (write a PID loop and the PLC does all the work), all I do is steer. When I unhook and they check my rpm's, I hit a button to take them to exactly 10% over.
