Tractor Pull at NC State Fairgrounds
Posted: Mon May 20, 2019 2:40 pm
Randi and I attended the "Got to be NC" Festival on Saturday afternoon and the tractor pulling was in full swing so we sat down and spectated. We both had great fun watching the action.

The next one was driven by Nick Fortune. I talked with him afterwards and he told me all about his tractor. It has a 700 cu in four cylinder and runs on propane!! https://youtu.be/AP7hdarqg4Y
He gave me is email address so I asked him about the problem during his run.
Here is his answer:
Hey Walt,
In the super classes we are required to have a safety kill switch, that way in case something happens the sled operator can turn off the tractor. I had been having problems with mine all day and it started acting up then so I turned around and pushed it back in, it ran awful the rest of the pull but it still pulled strong.
