Don't want a brand, that would just start a flame war, but you at least would need to mention the size of your truck, 1 ton, 3/4, 2whd, 4whd or? Traction will be the deal with a pickup, all comes down to your tires & loading & axle rpm. Way different deal than lugging with a regular tractor, it's all about connecting to the ground with the right amount of wheel spin.

At the antique pull they used to run near here, couple fellows came up with your plan, & they were told to buzz off real quick, so don't assume they will be happy to see you with a pickup. Can really mess up the insurance riders they have, as well as the track & so forth. When a tractor breaks loose - and rarely does - it will hit it's top speed of 7 mph or so???? When the bumper falls off your pickup, your truck can be doing 45+ before you get it back under control. Insurance companies fully see the difference in that - will depend on the operators of your pull, if they feel like taking the chance....
