Was told that there will be no indoor parking this year because pull count is expected to be down again. It's a dang shame that they insist on using that junk sled "Kansas Draggin Wagon". It's terrible to ruin what used to be one of the best pulls.

The root of your trouble seems to be with your club as I have pulled the Kansas Draggin Wagon numerous times at various pulls in Kansas. The sled may not be perfect, but I have never suspected foul play on the operators part. I have hooked a stock Super C and a div 3 H to it.

Don't you think it is time to give it a rest Andy? Every chance you get you start bashing GCTC. You are the one that asked to have your dues returned to you, and GCTC did just that. But what do you do, you put a picture of the check on the forum stating...BOYS, HAVE YOU EVER BEEN PAID TO STAY AWAY. Emplying you are just so good we don.t want you there. We are all ancious to see how great you are at Springfield, because I am sure you would not miss a pull that is just a few miles from your house. And then you threatened to sue because your name was not taken off their mailing list. So I hope you can put it to rest. I am pretty sure that most of the pullers can see through you by now, but GCTC is a very good club, we do use Larry's sled alot of the time, I have finished anywhere from first to last place, when I don't finish good, I thought I either had my tractor balanced wrong, wrong gear, air pressure not right, or went to the wrong side of the track, so Larry you stop riding those brakes on me, even though you don't even have brakes..lol

A person that I know went to a pull in southern Ks. once and they pulled him over 5 different times in the same class. It was a joke, even some of the club members were speaking out. He never went to another and will never go again. There are several Ne. pullers that don't come down because of useing the sled, one year they changed sleds a week or so before the pull and they showed up but not since. It is a shame because it was such a good pull.

Probably the two biggest problems are the gearing and the speed is based off the chain that kinks which is not accurate. The sled could be a decent sled if just a little improvements were made. But like it is it should not be used for a national pull. I've had several pullers say they would not drive that far and the pull be over in 70 feet. Tempola is right about the sled and I don't think he's being out of line. All you have to do is stand and watch it work and you can see just what is being discussed. Larry is a good man but he needs to get a better sled or do the work it takes to be a honest sled. I personally know about 10 pullers that will not come because of the sled so I'm sure there are more. It's not too late to change sleds and get the hooks that's needed, or at least several of them. Reputation is worth a lot when putting on any pull and this one is going the wrong way.

I will respectively disagree with you Jim about Andy being out of line. When he makes statements about Larry using breaks or implying that he would not be fair to anyone is not true. And then the statement that it depends on who is there if it is going to be fair or not. Is Larry's sled the best out there, probably not, but I am sure he would not single anyone out and cheat them. And it is absolutly out of line is anyone is implying that anyone from GCTC would try to single anyone out to cheat them.
