Wheel spacing is a good point to talk about,, I leave light tractors very narrow on the wheel spacing, a lighter tractor, with a wide stance, cant run well on crowned tracks, they get caught up trying to fight with holes and suck on the tracks,, I space my H farmall as close as I can, an rough estimate,, 3-1/2 ft from the center of the tractor, to the center of the tire. Light tractors seem to like this when I set them up this way,, I can drive between otheres tracks where good pulls have gone,, and not be in their tracks and holes where they spin out. Main thing is just be safe,, and have a ball!! watch the others in your class, as well as track conditions,, foot by foot my fellow pullers, foot by foot!! LOL ChadS

A few years ago, there was a real tough 70 oliver from ohio, Clayton Gingrich had it, seemed like when he pulled he was always in the top 3 places. No doubt in my mind that they have excellent potential!! ChadS
