Tractor pull question

T.E.C. · Jul 26, 2012

I'm wondering where in northern or central Wisconsin a guy can go to see a good old fashioned Farmall M or an Oliver 88 with a V8 automotive engine go down the track. Seems to me that this was a popular class when I was a youngster but you don't see them much any more. Don't get me wrong, I like the pro stocks and super farm tractors as much as the next guy. I Would like to see some screaming V8's pull again. Any info will be appreciated.

The last time I saw that was in Cherry Valley NY in
1975 They ran F20 Farmalls with dual Cadillac
engines and pulled for time with lights. What fun!

Can't help with your WI question but about 40 years ago I did once watch a fellow make a couple of rounds with a Farmall M powered by a dual quad 409/425 and 3 bottom trailer plow.

The tractor had no governor, just a bailing wire throttle and no exhausts beyond the manifolds.

The noise was deafening but the dirt was a flying.
