Duncan Pulls Out Win At Bill Halter Memorial Tractor Pull

LSGTPA teams rolled into Blue Ridge, Texas for two rounds of tractor pulling action.  Area rains had the blackland track damp underneath the hard top surface, which provided areas of great traction and a few slick spots.  Lane Duncan and his team unloaded two tractors for Youth Class competition, with the 'Texas T-Rex' pulling in the number three spot, followed by the 'Twisted Kitty' in the number five spot.

First round aboard the 'Texas T-Rex' seemed to find the team in the middle of the pack, lugging the motor just a little until the loose dirt on top allowed the wheels to spin.  Lane opened with a great pull aboard 'Twisted Kitty', to pace the field.  In the second round, the team elected to choose a lower gear, to allow the engine to pull easier on the sticky track, but the tractor pulled a little too far to the right side of the track, and found a slick spot which ended the run.  Lane took the 'Twisted Kitty' straight down the middle on a decent pull, to secure the top spot for the night.

The night ended with a First Place finish for the 'Twisted Kitty' tractor, and a Sixth Place scoring for the 'Texas T-Rex'.  Both tractors loaded up under their own power, which is always a win !!

Our next event will be at the Old Town Festival in Bartlett, Texas, on September 17th !

DUNCAN MOTORSPORTS DOUBLES AT LINDSAY TRUCK & TRACTOR PULL

Lane Duncan and his Duncan Motorsports pulling team rolled into Lindsay, Texas for the Lindsay Truck & Tractor Pull, on a hot Texas weekend for some LSGTPA tractor pulling.  Lane and the Duncan team would unload two tractors, to compete in the LSGTPA Youth Class.  Lane would wheel his familiar 'Texas T-Rex' tractor, as well as making his Lindsay debut aboard his new 'Twisted Kitty' machine.

The Enloe Museum staff, of Enloe, Texas, sponsored the Friday night event for the LSGTPA Youth Class.  The Butterfield Overland Stage Classic event would showcase the LSGTPA, and the Youth Class competitors, in front of a great crowd of pulling fans at the Lindsay Truck & Tractor Pull arena.
Lane would draw the 'Ace' card, which place him pulling first in the field, aboard his 'Texas T-Rex' tractor, and would draw the 'Eight' card for his 'Twisted Kitty'  placing him as pulling last in the class.  The 'Aces & Eights' cards, would have Lane book ending the class, pulling first and last aboard the Duncan Motorsports Team machines.  Lane would pilot his 'Texas T-Rex' tractor to the win on Friday night, topping a very tough field of Youth Class competitors.  Lane would also place his 'Twisted Kitty' tractor, in the fourth place position, after a great night of pulling.

Saturday night action saw the LSGTPA Youth Class open the show for the M K & T Railroad Shootout, with Lane Duncan again drawing the 'Ace' card to start the show, this time aboard his 'Twisted Kitty' tractor.  After a tire swap for the 'Twisted Kitty' tractor, Lane would open with a Full Pull on the 200 foot track, and never looked back, taking the win in the class aboard 'Twisted Kitty'.  Lane would pull in the fifth spot, in the middle of the field, aboard his 'Texas T-Rex' tractor, and would open the round with another Full Pull and finish in the Runner Up position aboard the crowd pleasing 'Texas T-Rex' tractor.  Lane would finish one and two on the night, placing his 'Twisted Kitty' tractor on top, with the 'Texas T-Rex' just five inches behind for the runnerup spot !  The LSGTPA Youth Class was incredibly tough, with tight finishes resulting in an 18 inch spread between the top five positions !  Just incredible !

Lane Duncan and his Duncan Motorsports team were fortunate to take the win on both Friday and Saturday nights, competing in an incredibly tough and close LSGTPA Youth Class field of competitors.  All of the drivers and teams in the LSGTPA Youth Class, provided the packed house of fans at the Lindsay arena, a great show for the weekend event.

The Duncan Motorsports team will unload and perform routine maintenance on the 'Texas T-Rex' and 'Twisted Kitty', to prepare for the next LSGTPA event to be held in Blue Ridge, Texas.  The team will compete at the Bill Halter Memorial Pull in Blue Ridge, on Saturday night, August 20.
