Back into the archives of Jim Webb once again for 1980s minirods.  It was still a time experimentation and innovation.  Injected engines, turbos, blowers, it's all here.

PHOTO GALLERY MARION FAIR

Central Michigan Pulling hosted at the Marion Fair.  Marion is a smalltown fair that I had not been to in 7 or 8 years, but I remember it as being a difficult track to get down.  So it would prove.  Marion is a soft track with a slight rise from the starting line and then leveling out.  Towards the end of the session and with the sun well set behind the grandstand, it started to come in.

WMP BERLIN RACEWAY VIDEO

Charles Russell hits a ton of hooks in MI/IN/OH area and posts sweet video to his Stormy Pleasures YouTube channel.  He was there with us at Berlin Raceway in Marne, MI on Wednesday night for the West Michigan Pullers points hook.  This was a tough night for the pullers and REALLY hard on Jeff Storey, the Pioneer sled's owner/operator.  As the session progresses, you're going to see the starting line progressively deteriorate to the point where he starts bouncing around the cab like a lottery ball!  Air under the sled tires WITH the weight box still over them...  NUTS!

2018 PECK, MI TTPA ROUND 1

6/6/2018

Friday June 1st was the Season Opener for the Thumb Tractor Pulling Association and boy what an evening it was.  With cool (okay, freakin' cold) temps and the threat of rain moving through to the west, there was minor concern that the show wouldn't get in, but it never was truly in doubt.  Pulling seasons rarely start with full entry sheets because, despite having 8 months to be ready, things don't always work out that way.  Not this year.  85 hooks signed on!!!  EIGHTY-FIVE!  Better still is that we are hearing about new machines coming on line in a few weeks.  There's always concern over the so-called "health" of the sport, but it seems to us like a more concentrated TTPA schedule, with essentially all of the hooks in the Thumb Region, is just the shot in the arm that was needed.

Oh, yeah!!!  Pulling is in full swing with NTPA Super National at Galot Motorsports Park in NC, PPL Champions Tour at Ft. Recovery, OH, and regional pulling EVERYWHERE!!!  Get in the mood with this Rewind back to sometime in the mid 80s at Centerville, MI.  Some of the more iconic modifieds (at least to folks in the MI, NWOH, NEIN region) are featured.  This footage comes to us courtesy of Jim Craig of Gopher tractor fame that you'll see run a couple of times.
