I posted some pictures below from the Missouri Valley show at Boonville,Mo. They had a great show on Saturday. My friend and I really enjoyed it.
The negative thing was all of the butt buggies(Swiped that from TGIN below. I like it for describing the carts etc.) It made the show more difficult for those of us on foot. When ever things where going on you had two rows of butt buggies in the front blocking everyone else's view. The real annoying ones are the Polaris UTVs. They are made to run wide open and not go slow. They have an annoying engine noise. Sounded like snowmobiles everywhere.
I have gone to several shows this year. I really like how some of them limit what you can ride in the show. Even then you have to show just cause. Like a State issued handicapped permit. That way those that really need them can go see what is going on but the rest can walk just like everyone else.
It almost seemed like that many of the guys where trying to top each other in who had the biggest, largest, most expensive butt buggies. I got out of tractor pulling thirty years ago because it became a race of check books. It looks like it is happening with the vehicles at shows now.
So what do you guys think??? I think I am going to skip the shows that let all of the butt buggies in. (Just love that term) LOL

If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
