Does anybody on this site use their truck to pull the sled?
I love truck pulling, and have been doing it for about 15 years. I was a fan of the sport for about 10 years before that.
Here is a pic of my old iron pulling the sled, enjoy:

All I see is a red x

Maybe its because he is to fast and even the picture is gone. ;D

I never have but I've always enjoyed going to the pulls and sometimes being a pull off tractor. I'd love to get into pulling but I don't have the money to be even close to being competitive. Lets see your pics!

My Brother in-law runs two "street" trucks. One is an 80 K30 with a 502 and the other is an 80 K20 with a 406. Whenever I get around to putting my 406 together, I plan on running mine in the small block stock class. I used to do a lot of tractor pulling but I lost interest. I did get to pull the truck with the 502 a couple years ago and got a 2nd place with it.

I have tried a different picture host.
Hopefully the pictures will be viewable. If not, drop me a note, and I will try to fix it again. ;D

haha! true but I'm going to atleast hook up once when i get my truck done. probably going to rip out that 10bolt under my front end but only an excuse to get a dana 60 there!

No, but i love how they stretch the wheelbase of some "modified" (?) trucks. It looks cool. Please discuss that.
Also, please discuss how, exactly, they connect two or more engines together.

I dated a girl whos dad ran a Mod tractor with (4) 440 mopars. He just used double roller chain with two sprockets to connect each pair of engines. In the latest Hot Rod mag there is a car with two small blocks with some different kind of coipler connecting them together.

The last time I pulled was about 2 years ago at Altenburg, MO. I have really slacked off pulling over the last 5 years. My youngest son plays baseball, and that usually takes all of my time in the summer.
I have pulled at the SteGenevive Co. fair many times, Kaskaskia Island, Dexter, MO, Doniphan, MO, Pinkneyville, IL, East Prarie, MO. Plus there are tons of pulls in KY, and TN that I used to attend.
I wasn't aware that there were pulls in Fredricktown. I know that they have them in Hillsboro, MO, and at Farmington, MO at the race track. Jeremy Naeger usually has pulls when he has his mud bash 3~5 times a year.
Can you give me some info on the Fredricktown pulls? Where, and when? Rules?
