Near the end of a pull, the front end comes up on my tractor. If I lower the tire pressure, I will be lowering the drawbar, which should help. But lower pressure will also be adding traction. Which will win out in the end - the added traction or the lowered drawbar?

That depends on how far the front raises at the end. If your front just bobs at the end, the weight distribution is close to perfect.

Do you spin out or power out?

Slo, it always spins out in first, powers out in second gear - the pull results are about the same. The front bobs on two local tracks & it climbs right up on the third track.

seems simple, but keep a notebook as to what you wiegh and where you put the wieghts per/say as to what track/class you are on /in. If you are winding down to the last 10-20 feet of your pull and your front end is bobbing you have the balance. If she wants to stand up last 20-30 feet or sooner your notebook and tractor needs some education. PS some tractors are much easier to balance than others
