: : : Have yall seen the slow tractor races at antique tractor club get-togethers? My club (West Ga. 2 Cylinder Club) has slow races and tractor pulls twice a year. My JD 40 Standard (wide front) has been very successful in winning these races. It can get down low and make the tires jerk every time a piston fires. Theoretically, a 40 Utility or M tuned the same should be slower due to smaller diameter rear tires, but I have not found one yet. I hear that a JD 50 should perform the best due to lower overall gearing than other models, but I have not seen the numbers for the ratios. So, has anybody got a super-slow tractor or some super-slow tips? : I heard tell of a guy who had a real slow 40. Story was (over in Barnesville) that he cheated. Something about hanging a vise grip wrench on the throttle arm, oh uh hi Jason At least the vise grips were painted green.
