1.   Sled not responsible for any accident.

8.   New pullers and tractor builders please read all these rules and if you have any questions contact us. If you show up with something that doesn't fit the rules or raises safety concerns, you may not be allowed to pull. See rule two (#2) above.


1.   Each driver will operate his/her tractor in a safe manner, and in such a manner as to be in full control at all times, both in and out of the pit area.

2.   Drivers must be old enough and physically able to operate the tractor solo. If they are under 10 they must also have a parent or guardian walk down the side of the track with them in case of an emergency. Minimum age requirements for Altered Classes listed in their respective sections.

3.   Drivers must have at least one hand on the steering wheel at ALL TIMES.

4.   Drivers must keep both feet on the footrests.

5.   Drivers must remain in contact with the seat at all times.

6.   Drivers must stop immediately when the red flag drops.

7.   Drivers will be allowed to lean forward or backward and side to side to make adjustments.

8.   No one other than the driver will ride on any pulling tractor when it is moving, whether being towed or driven.

9.   All pulls must start from a tight chain.


1.   A puller may have more than one tractor in the same class.

2.   Pull order will be random as determined by the sign up computer.

3.   Two minutes maximum time will be allowed to hook to the sled. If a breakdown cannot be fixed in the allotted time, the tractor may drop to last position. This will be STRICTLY ENFORCED.

4.   False start is 60 feet from the starting point. Any tractor stopping before the 60 ft. mark may retry ONE time.

5.   If a tractor comes down "in bounds" that tractor is not disqualified.

6.   When weighing, the driver must be sitting on the seat.

7.   If the sled operator brakes the tractor, the pull is measured at that point.

8.   There will be one flag person. Their decision is FINAL.

9.   Tractors will be allowed one pull per class with a maximum of 2 pulls per event with the following exceptions. Classes or number of hooks may be reduced depending on tractor turnout. Either of these exceptions would be announced at the end of signup.

10.   Signup will start one and one half (1 1/2) hours before event start time and will run up until one half (1/2) hour before event start. There will be NO LATE SIGNUPS! It is imperative that these events start on time and the people doing the signup have things to do before the event begins. Having signup end thirty (30) minutes before the event start will also allow decisions to be made about the previous rule (#9).

11.   Each tractor will weigh and have their hitch measured as they line up to hook onto the sled. Weight tolerance is zero (0) pounds. Hitch height tolerance is zero (0) inches. You will not be allowed to hook to the sled if your weight or hitch is over. Be prepared to add or subtract weight and adjust your hitch. Tractors may not leave the line up after they have been cleared to hook. The scale does not discriminate. If it's off, it's off for everyone. So DEAL WITH IT!

12.   Pull ends when forward motion of sled stops or goes out gate.
