2011 Season Kickoff

The LSGTPA pullers started the 2011 season with a Test'n Tune session at the Kuecklehan Rodeo complex in Bonham, Texas.  Lane had the Texas T-Rex out for a couple of pulls with the newly widened wheels and fresh tires.  We also took the opportunity to try two different gear ratios, which we had not had the chance to test with in 2010.  We found a setup that I believe will help.  We have a couple of changes to make before we head off down to Groesbeck in May, but the test session seemed to be a worthwhile effort....and, of course, the driver did perfect !!

938# on the scale for the 950# class...room for a couple of cheeseburgers!

1st pull of the 2011 season !

Some exciting news has developed in the Texas T-Rex camp !!!  Lane has taken delivery of a new 'bullet' for the T-Rex....This should improve the program in the horsepower department, and may allow for some testing with the recently acquired second tractor.  STAY TUNED....

Lane and the 'top secret' bullet under cover !
