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!!!
