given a scale and a Dyno. actual pull weight divided by actual hp x2. result x actual sled travel. do some figures tell me what ya think.
example 5500 lb tractor dynos at 102 hp. this gives you an entry number of 26.96. times the total length of pull. say 70 ft, gives you a score of 1887. largest number wins class. 4500 lb 50 hp pulls 73 ft. entry number of 45.o gives you a score of 3285. larger engine hp the greater the divisor. therefore a same 4500 lb tractor with 38 hp entry number is 59.21 manages to also pull 73 ft. scoring 4322.36, winning his class.
6500 lb unit at 150 hp is a 21.6 entry, pulls 118 ft for a score of 2556.
this obviously favors smaller engines, and may work only for stock classes. Dont laugh till you think it over.

As you can easily seem Math eliminates BS. One Dyno a year, and sealant on the governor settngs, all you have to do is weigh them. somone wants to protest? dyno solves it. i used the HPx2 to lower the number. any more and lower class weights could get muddy in the final numbers dept.
