There's an art and a science to it.

[@Trukluver]

That's for sure.

Very Boring!! i would rather watch paint dry....

[@lowellmiller6663]

I guess technically you're pulling even if you're not moving.😯

[@Trukluver]

Only for a certain period of time. I forget what the time frame is, but if you don't move the sled within it, they tell you that you're pinned and you're pull is over.

[@lowellmiller6663]

@@Trukluver As long as you're chain is tight you are "pulling" that's the point I was trying to make. Yes for a certain time it all comes to an end. I'm trying not to be too serious about it.

[@darrinleischer6709]

its like watching paint dry.

What is the object.is it to spin but not move? Thanks

[@Trukluver]

The object is to move the weighted sled six feet. Spinning the tires heats them up. This makes the rubber softer and hopefully helps them get better traction on the concrete.

i like regular tractor pulls .... i just don't understand this ... 🤷‍♂️ it looks like it a competition to see who can flip their tractor over on themselves first!

[@Trukluver]

To each their own, I guess.
