Winter stuff

Well Lil Whitey is snuggled up in the Borman storage building......Hibernating. Thanks for input Paul, took your advice.
Sounds like we may need to do a little bit of hitch work, new rules may change how much the hitch is accessible.
Also, we are having a new diesel class between the "stock" and hot classes. We are going to push to allow us to run with them. Also would like to hook in the Light Limited Super Stock class, and if possible run a 7500# Open class. I guess some don't think this would work????? Not sure why? SIMPLE rules, you must legally hook in another current class at that event in order to hook in the 7500# open class. All the rules of your normal class apply, with ONE exception of weight max of 7500#. Sounds easy to me, I would think that the crowd would like to see different vehicles hook against each other at same weight. I would be glad to help with the inspections etc. for this class.

THOUGHTS?????

Thought for the day: The definition of "mas" is festival or celebration..........are we in a true Christ..MAS season???? or have we turned it into a "Me..Christ" season??? lw

Winter blues

Hey ya'll. We are wondering were Lil Whitey should spend the long winter days. Should we "winterize" him and put him in a cold, unheated storage someplace? Should we tuck him away in the corner of the shop where he can hibernate warm and clean all winter long? In the shop he will take up some of the B-ball space. What do you think? Give us your comments.

All done "hooking" for the year

Well, we ended up NOT going to Toledo, so we are done "hooking" for the year. Overall a great & fun year. Lots of time, but grew some existing friendships along with making some new ones. Perhaps some of the best parts of the season was the time spent with some great people!!! We feel it a privilege to be able to be around such great families.
Brad, Simeon, & Amy Bickle Thanks!! Brad you are such a pillar of priorities. I count it a privilege to even be able to compete with you. I have seen and am trying to learn from you the value of your spiritual and family life taking a precedence over the "hobby" of truck pulling. I hope you continue to walk with your God, family, and friends as you have shown and continue to be that "pillar".
Brad, Amy, & girls Hyma, thank you. You have been a great friend and support. We could not have done the Kent City Pull with out you guys. Also for your expertise in the drivetrain, so much of Lil Whitey's success is a direct result of your knowledge and help. Thank you so much!! We have really enjoyed getting to know your family as well, and want to continue to grow that relationship. Continue to raise and train those 3 beautiful girls as you have, that is an awesome privilege you have!!! (Amy, If you find a smaller 4 wheeler for me to use, let me know).
Ed and Robin Aten, Wow!!! You guys are blessed in so many ways. I have, more than once, gotten choked up while watching you guys with your many little people. You two are nothing short of inspiring. I am in awe and feel so far behind you guys when I see your love and care for those children. I doubt they will ever understand what you have given, and are giving to them. They are so blessed to have you guys as Mom and Dad. You have been a huge blessing to my wife, myself, and my family.
Thank you all for your support and blessing to me!!!! I am thankful for the success of the year in pulling, however, I believe the biggest success, for me, has been to get to know you all and so many others.

Thought for the day: What is more powerful than all of our trucks put together........our successful relationships. lw

Kent City






Whoa, putting on a pull is a lot of work. Hats off to all you who do it all summer long, and thanks for all your work!!! I think it went well. We had a good crowd, probably lost some due to moving it a week. The track was good, got a bit dusty toward the end, but it was a long event.

Lil Whitey did great. We managed to pull out a win in the 6200# Mod gas class, and Colleen hooked in the "powder puff" class. She was first hook did pretty good but turned it down to come back last at win it. Robin Aten did a fantastic job with the ole "Silver Bullet". Does that Dodge have a name yet Ed? Better watch out Ed, she looks like she knows how to bring that sled out of the hole about as good as you do!!! Great job Robin and all you ladies who hooked. We also hooked Lil Whitey in the 7500# open class. Pulled at 302' which got us 2nd behind "One Bad Apple". Had a lot of fun.

Thanks to all you who helped so much!!! Couldn't have done it without you all.

We will be posting the video's on http://www.kcpull.blogspot.com/ as we get time to do it. Check out that website to see all the Kent City Pull.

Thought for the day: If you tell your wife that your last pull was Kent City and someone from Toledo area invites you to come to theirs the next week, is it ok to go? lw

Eagle Pull


Left home about 7:30 in morning was wet and promise of more rain in the western sky. We headed out anyway. We had made plans to meet my second cousin, her husband and family and go to church with them before the pull, so we figured worst case scenario we would spend day with them. Got back to their house from church at about 11:00 and sky was clearing. It had rained pretty good all the way down there in AM. I headed over to the track (about 2 miles away), and the pulling bustle was at full speed. Lots of trucks, diesels, hot diesels, mod gassers, semis and hot semis. Greg Hikock got pull underway at about 12:25 inspite of all the rain. Great job Greg and crew!!!! Stock diesel trucks ran first, was about 14 of them. We were next. We had drawn 3rd hook. Track was really good, long, "hooking", and smooth. We pulled a 329'!!! Had a little bounce going pretty much the first 200' or so. I think it was from the blocks. We had blocked the rear suspension solid, Greg has no rules against rear blocks. The tires take all of the bounce if there is any and the shocks can't help at all. I personally think it is smoother with 3/4" to 1 1/2" of travel than with no travel or no blocks. Anyhow, they took top 3 over 300' for a pull off. Ed Aten pulled a 318' or so and John Petz pulled around 300' so we 3 were in pull off. We bounced again in pulloff, seemed a bit worse so we had to "pedal" once, that seemed to help. Ended up pulling a 318'. Ed had a 305' and John bounced pretty bad and pulled at 278' or so. Our first win at Eagle!!! It was fun with family there and all. Getting near end of season, kind of bitter sweet.


Next pull is Kent City!!!! This Saturday (Sept. 13th). Ya'll come out and cheer us on.


Thought of the day (Thoughts I had today) I am so thankful for my wife and children, I am blessed beyond description. Thank you Lord!!!!

(Note: We witnessed a little 6 year old boy fall about 36" landing on the back of his head on some rough concrete. It was not a good thing. The father was a fellow puller and was at the scene right away, being a paramedic he was taking charge of the scene with his own son being the injured person. The ambulance came and took him away on a stretcher to the emergency room. The point is he gave up his pulling day, without a second thought, to take care of his family. We enjoy this sport, but this was a good call to reality that the Real things in life are our families!!!! This boys name is Seth, if you feel led to pray for him and his family. I haven't heard anything from the hospital visit, if I do I will post it)

Remus 2

Had a great night. 5700, 6500, 7500, 8000(open gas & diesel) took home 1st place in each. Ed is pushing us hard with his Dodge, couple more tweeks and he will be the "man to beat". Harold was struggling with front spring problems, sounds like he may have twisted them at Hart or somewhere. WATA did another great pull. We will always try to get to their pulls.

Headed to Eagle this Sunday, noon. Sounds like there will be ALOT of trucks!!!!

Don't forget the Kent City pull on Saturday the 13th. Ya'll bring your pulling vehicles and all your friends to watch ya!!

Thought for the day: Why is it that a mistake of equal perportion to a job well done always out weighs it? lw

Notice the Kent City Pull website www.kcpull.blogspot.com

Hart

No camera again. Pull was good, track started a bit wet but by the time we hooked it was good and sticky. We had first hook, nice a smooth right down to the end. Started to bounce pretty good right at the end, we stepped out of it and tried to get back into it but was pretty well stopped by then. Ended up with a 237'. Brad was up next but couldn't get the Nearpass hook through his hitch, so he pulled off to get a clevis. John Petz hooked next, had a pretty bad miss??? Not sure what was going on there??? He had around 205'. Brad hooked next had a little miss as well for the first 75' or 80' then it cleared up. Nice and smooth, ended up with a 233'. So we ended up winning it after all. Haven't had much of a problem with bounce all year, so we are thinking it was just the Hart track. We are calling it the "Hart Throb".

Schedule update

We will not be going to Hudsonville on the 18th. Apparently they are not doing trucks that night. There is a rumor of a truck pull at Hudsonville on Labor day, the 1st. We are not sure if we will be going, we may be taking the family to Michigan's Adventure. We will keep ya'll posted.

Centreville, Thursday 9/18, 6:00pm

Marshall 2

Went to Marshall last night, long drive, 2 hrs or so. Always worth the drive there. John Hamilton puts on a great pull, thanks John. Brought the camera along but Steve, new pit crew guy (for last night anyway), had camera with him but forgot to record it. Had about 12 trucks again, we drew last hook. So we got to watch all the others go first. Brad Bickle hooked 3rd or 4th and pulled a 296', enough for 1st at that time. He held that spot till Lil Whitey hooked. Had a great hook again, motor ran great, tires hooked everything seemed to be clicking. We took it out to 314' plenty enough for 1st place. Fun pull.

Looks like next hook will be Hart on the 22nd, usually another great pull. Come on up if ya'll get a chance.

Fremont

Our worst showing of the year so far. Sorry. Couple little driver errors. Seemed like it wanted to bounce out of the hole, so I kept a light foot tooooo long. Didn't leave us enough time to get the momentum up. Also headed to left at end of track and lost the hitch height when we hit the big gully. Harold had another great hook and Ed did not break. We've been saying all year if Ed can hook without carnage he will be a force to be reckened with. Great job Harold and Ed!!! We ended up 3rd and no breakage. We are happy with that!!

We also had the opportunity to hook the "Tow Truck" or we call him "Mighty Whitey". We hooked in the Street Diesel Class. It was fun, ended up 5th out of 12 or so trucks. Kind of surprised with that, didn't expect to do that good.

Mt Pleasant


Can you believe, we forgot the camera again (Picture is from the Remus pull). Brad Bickel rode along with us and in the hurry of getting on the road we forgot to grab the camera. We apologize, that means no video. We pulled into the pits area and there were trucks everywhere!!!! Lots of tough trucks, we were thinking if we could get out of there mid pack we would be happy. TTPA had a lot of good running trucks there along with 2 of their Super stock trucks, these guys are built!!! Harold hooked first, again, took it down to a 294. We hooked 3rd, it was a great run, engine came to life and the tires just plain hooked into the track, we put down a 301'. They had decided before hand to do a top 3 pull off of all the hooks that went past 300'. Being the 3rd puller and lots of trucks to hook yet I was just hoping for a chance to make it into a pull off, I was sure there would be at least a few more past 300'. Ended up Harolds 294 held up to 2nd place until the last puller, one of the Super Stocks who pulled a 296. A 1st for Lil Whitey. Ed hooked and had no power to rear axle, something wrong in rearend we think, probably broke when his axle broke at Morley. Maybe broke the Detroit Locker?? Will have to see. Ed's woes continue, hang in there Ed.


Thought for the day: The life lived for tomorrow is realized tomorrow, problem is, tomorrow never comes. The life lived for eternity is realized in eternity, remember, eternity includes right now!! lw

Morley 2


OK, I will try to catch up here. Morley, the big Morley. It went great, weather was great, sunny and hot. They had 2 classes for us #5800 and #6500. Lots of trucks in both classes, 15 or 16. Track wanted to bounce for everyone including Lil Whitey. #5800 came out of hole wanting to bounce a bit, we feathered it at about 80', that didn't seem to clear it up, feathered it a couple more times at about 125' then is seemed to settle in. Nearpass sled is awesome, Dan you do a grea job!!!! We pulled a 318', we were 4th or 5th hook in class and farthest up until then was about 293'. We knew there were a lot of good trucks coming yet. We did end up holding them off, 2nd place ended up around 309'. In #6500 class we were the 2nd hook pulled a 289.9'. Harold L was the first hook and had turned it down, so he was coming back as last puller. All the other trucks hooked and we were still holding down the 1st place spot by 5'-6'.....................but then that slippery snake Harold hooked for his second hook and pulled at 290.2'. We ended up 2nd by about 3". Great pull Harold, it was a great looking run!!!!!!!!! Ed A broke rear right axle at about 220' in the #5800 class. We pulled out the broken one and tried to find a truck we could borrow on from but not many trucks use the Dana 70's anymore. We ended up not finding an axle for him. We are really bummed for Ed, he has had a really touch year for breakage. Hang in there Ed, you have a really nice truck and it will win a lot of pulls once you get the bugs out of it!!!!!!

Evart




OK, sorry about the wait. We went up to Evart last Wednesday. We were expecting a mediocre track at best. The track was actually really good, other than a few stones. The sled had a bit to be desired. We hooked in a #6500 and #7500 class. Sled started hard, they had a lot of weight in the pan, but once we got it going it went alright. We full pulled the first hook, then full pulled in the pull off. Ed Aten and Harold LaFond also full pulled. They were both right there in the pull off but didn't quite get it out the end. #7500 class we full pulled on first hook, boy that thing started hard. Ed broke the CV joint coming out of front of transfer case so Harold was only other one who full pulled. We had asked the sled driver if the #8000 diesels could pull before our pull off so we could cool down a bit. So they added MORE weight to the pan and hooked the first #8000 diesel, Marty N, he full pulled. The second and third Diesels couldn't even get the sled to move. So Harold and Lil Whitey did our pull off. We full pulled and Harold couldn't get his clutch to engage. That was pretty fun pulling the sled to a full pull while some heavier diesels couldn't get it rolling. All in all was a really fun night. Marty mopped up again in the diesel classes. Ed and Harold did great, except that sled hated clutches. Great pull guys, Thanks!!!!!
Thougth for the day: Are we dreaming of living, or living a dream? Perspective is everything. lw

Ionia, no pull for Lil Whitey

Ionia is not holding a pull for our classes tonight. NTPA will be at Ionia Friday and Saturday!!! Very, very good show to anyone who can make it. Some of the best tractors and trucks in the country will be there!!!
Next scheduled hook is Evart next Thursday and Barryton Friday, then the big time event at Morely on Saturday. NTPA will have some of their classes there as well, along with all of our classes. Well worth the trip to go to. Evart and Barryton are somewhat in the air yet for Lil Whitey?? We will confirm as we get closer.

Muskegon 2

Sorry, no video. Got all the way to pull and realized we had left the camcorder at home.
Pull went great!! Track was really wet and tore up when we got there about 5:30, it had just rained about 3/10 of inch about an hour previous. Kim Wagner had pushed all the top mud off the track and cut down into the more solid under pan. He packed it down just before pull. They ran the heavier farm tractor classes first then some other tractor classes. We (spark pluggers) were last. Track was good and "biting" by then, great job Kim, Thanks!! We were the first hook so we got to turn it down, gives us another hook. :-) Went about 315' on first hook, Ed Aten (the Silver Dodge team) was the only other truck in the class that night, hooked second and he did great 306' or so. Our second hook was a little better than our first one. We had some bounce starting on first hook right at the beginning, so on second hook we eeeezed into it a bit slower and avoided some bounce. Took it to 317' that time. One of the few times we did better on second hook after turning down the first one. Bruce Hyma thinks the Pilot, Jeff, has something wrong with his head by turning down that first hook. It was a good hook and I (Lil Whitey) thinks he has something wrong with his head too, it's just these other guys are finally figuring it out!!! :-)

Remus



Fun pull, Hot!!! Had trouble keeping Tranny cool!! #5500 (bumped to #5700, most of us weigh around #5700 stripped) Managed to squeek out a 1st. In the #6500 class Brad, Joe and I full pulled, Brad got us by a couple feet in the pull off, for a 2nd. In the #7500 class Brad and I full pulled first time around, we eeked past Brad by a few feet in the pull off for another 1st. They had an #8000 open class, gas and diesel together. We were a bit nervous about hooking with the diesels again, some of those guys run really hard. We were first hook, had a great run, had to just wait and watch the diesels (we were only "spark plugger" in the class), they all had good runs and tried to reach the mark set by Lil Whitey, Marty hooked last in class and came within a few feet but didn't have enough. It is a riot to beat those diesels, I asked Marty if he had turned his programmer down to make it even :-) He said he gave it all he had, YES!!! A 1st in the open class is always fun!!! Over all a great night, lots of fun. W.A.T.A you guys put on a great pull!!!! Thanks!!!! They are putting on another pull in Barryton on the 1st of August and a second pull in Blanchard, I think, on the 22nd of August, we will be in Hart that night.
Thanks to Aaron, Jerry, Dad, and some of Joe's team for helping "throw weights", there was not a lot of time between classes to weigh up. Thanks, Aaron, for taking video!! THANKS GUYS!!!

Sparta



Pull went well last night. Had some local pickups battling each other, had some good competition between them. Brad B was there again, he fixed his "bouncing" problem, at least last night. He continues to inch toward us. He is a tough competitor, we still managed to Eeek past him by a couple feet. Track had a mud hole right in the middle, had to have some good momentum to get through that.
Headed to Remus tonight, barring any rainouts.

What...... A pull in Kent City???

Yup, that's right. September 13th, Noon. All the MFSTPA classes, a couple antique classes, some local farm classes, and an "open" class. Tell everyone one you know, and bring even more. Loads of fun.

Sparta pull

Headed to Sparta for truck pull tonight. Sounds like the #6200 class may be a bit on the light side as far as participants, maybe they will let us hook with the #street diesels??? We will keep you all informed.

A missed thank you

Tony Deuling reminded me that he had helped tremendously with the truck build. My apologies Tony!!! Thanks so much. I figured you were too busy with your airplane to worry about pulling trucks anymore. :-) Maybe we should hook the airplane and "Lil Whitey" back to back??? Think you can lift Lil Whitey off the ground?? Or can we keep you grounded?

Morely "One"

Morely had their typical "power track", you guys do a great job of building a track, thanks. We had 2 6200# classes, basically same trucks hooked twice. Track had a few "waves" in it, thankfully we didn't have much of a "bounce" issue. Brad and Joe seemed to be fighting the "bounce" a little, I am sure our day is coming (hope not). Because they had to "step out of it" a little we could keep a little bit more momentum. We edged them out for the wins, we will take them when we can, both those guys, Joe Felice and Brad Bickle, have very strong trucks and can win at any given pull.

Blanchard

Track was pretty slippery at start of evening, and first class being the light one, there was not much traction. Sat idling too long before this first hook. Was quite warm when we left the line, water and engine oil where about 245 at finish. Boiled out about 1 1/2 gallons of water and vapor locked the fuel, so we had to be towed back to pits. Ran water pump and fans for 25 minutes or so, got the water temp back down to about 130. Started right up and ran great for 6500# class. Had a bit more traction with extra weight and track was coming to as well. Got a full pull in that one. Temps stayed good for rest of night as long as we let Lil Whitey cool down between hooks. First run of 7500# class they had sled set to slow, we were headed for the woods. Thankfully we got stopped without getting "rammed" by the sled. The second hook in 7500# was a bit tougher, we were working on that one. Also hooked in the 8000# open class, gas & diesel trucks, RWYB (run what ya brung). I don't have a video of that one, my video person, Kalah, was riding with me!!!! They allowed a rider and Kalah wanted to ride.......I think she liked it.

Took 1st place in 5500#, 6500#, & 7500# classes and 2nd place in the 8000# class behind the STRONG running diesel called "One Bad Apple". This was a little better(funner) night than Thurs.

Gladwin

Thursday was not a real bright spot pulling wise, however, it did contribute to some opportunity for some character building. Drove 2 1/2 hrs to Gladwin, unloaded truck, loaded weights for classes, drove across scales, drove back to trailer to wait for class, "attempted" to start and drive to line up. Starter would not cooperate. We finally got it to smoke, (the starter), then we knew it was "toast". Being an automatic tranny, we were out of options. Ed Aten got us bumped from 3rd puller to last, about 11 trucks, giving us a little more time. Meanwhile, we did have a very friendly competitor who happened to have a spare starter, thanks Jim. We did get started and to the moved to starting area, BUT while waiting for other trucks to go Lil Whitey was getting a little warm so we shut it down. While attempting to restart, by shorting wires to starter terminal, we accidently shorted wire to tranny cooler line and popped a hole in it. Now we were done. Got a tow back on to trailer and took the "long" ride back home.
Thanks to Brad & Bruce Hyma, Tim Guild, Ed Aten, Harold LaFond, and Jim Bailey for all your help during the "charactor building class".

Many Special Thanks!!!

Just a few thank you's,




Brad Hyma for his drivetrain expertise. You are the man for drivetrain. Also to Valley Truck Parts, for the excellent job they did on the rearend.
Bruce Deuling for his patience for my many "wacky" fabrication ideas. If you can even come up with any build idea, Bruce can make it a reality. He guarantee's nothing, HOWEVER, the way he builds it there is no question as to it's perfomance abilities.
Dan Thompson and John Hill at Hi-Tech on Alpine in Grand Rapids. Brakes and brake system, awsome, thanks!!!
Automotive Machine and Performance in Owensboro, KY. Lem and Charlie Evans, for the unlimited knowledge they have of the Big Block Fords. Thanks for the southern hospitality and great weekend!!
Philip Oakleigh, your carb tuning is second to none. Thanks, hope your racing season for '08 is second to none as well!!
Scotty Johnson @ RHP, for all your head work and the awsome flow numbers.
Brad Bickle for your support and knowledge while doing engine build. I hope your '08 pulling season is second only to Lil Whitey!!!! :-)
My lovely Bride for her MUCH patience and support for the many, many hours this hobby takes. Thank you honey. I Love you!!

Muskegon "one"

Whoa, it was just starting to rain (again) as we got going on the first hook. Still had pretty good footing, Doug Nearpass (the sled operator) definitely had us trucks reigned in a lot tighter here in Muskegon than at Marshall last week. I had all I could do to get it up to 6600 RPM on first hook and about 6800 RPM on second hook (a bit more slippery footing), nowhere to run. He had that ole sled tied right to the ground by 200' or so. The "pilot" (and I was too, I love this stuff) was ready to give it another try. Since we were the first hook in the class we were able to take the first pull or deline and take the second pull distance. If you decline you have to use the second pull distance as your official distance. Brad B was the only other truck in the class at this event, however, he is as tough as anyone. We were having too much fun and decided to decline the first hook. Brad was having a tough time with some "wheel hop" and had to step out of it, "giving" us an easier shot. We lost a few feet in second run, however, still had enough to win out Brad. Thanks Brad, we owe you one. Second hook was definitely a lot more slipperey, thanks to the rain.

Headed to Gladwin, hopefully, on Thursday. Will keep ya all informed when we get back. If I don't get any "ouwies" we hope to head to Blanchard on Friday and Morely on Saturday. If any of ya'll can make it out, look us up.

If ya'll are seeing something that would be helpfull to myself or "pilot", make some comments. We will take all advise into "consideration".

Thanks and God Bless,

Lil Whitey

Video of maiden voyage, Marshall MI

Was a fun run, had a pretty good head of steam going out the end. My "pilot" let off a little toward the end then stepped into it, I think he was afraid he was going to run the fence over, thankfully that grass was slippery. Ended up getting 339.6', got beat by 340' and 365' out of 13 trucks. Not bad for first time, I like dancing like that!!!! :-)

Hello

Just got up and running. Will try to keep pictures, videos, and information posted here for anyone who cares.
