Hi, First off, I want to apologize, for what I said to UB puller. You will see what I mean when you read the posts. He obviosly does not like me, and likes bashing me any chance he gets. I can take constructive criticism from anyone, as long as they are polite. I do not like it when someone disrespects others. My parents, Earl and Mary Jo have done a wonderful job raising 4 kids, and have taught us how to treat people with respect, and curtacy that good people deserve. I am 28 years old, now, I have been pulling tractors for 15 years, 15 years of hard work, blood, sweat and tears. I have enjoyed every moment! I am married, no children, and alot of free time on my hands, so I log on here at YT to talk tractors and pulling. Tractor pulling is my passion, it is in my blood. Red like Farmalls. I know that technology is a frightening topic when it comes to pulling tractors. There is always something new to buy, and people who sell items for pullers. Alot of useless technology out there too. I am not like other people and don't care what they sell, I do care! I am a machinist, I use the very same products on my tractors that I offer for sale. I personally tested them. The parts work. Anyway, Back to what I was saying, Respect is earned, not given. I respect, and admire any puller who is tring to succeed in winning a pull. Its alot of work!!! I also will help ANYONE who asks me. When someone comes on and talks to, or about me and bash me the way he did makes me sick. There is no reason to personally attack another person that way. I got angry, I said some things that were not nice, I don't want people to have to read that on their favorite web site! I felt like I had to let him know what I think, openly, and honestly. No body has to listen to me on how to tune their tractors, most already do know and are making sure they have not left anything out. If you think for 1 second that I am tring to snowball,BS, or flat out lie about how to build powerhouses you are terribly mistaken! Why would I stick my neck out if I did not feel like I knew what I was saying? Ladies,and gentlemen of antique tractor pulling: you all are wonderful people, but if the information I have provided in the past, is not right, I want to know! Don't bash me, tell me! I don't know everything, I would love to learn more! We as pullers learn from our mistakes, I have worked my a$$ off to make my tractors what they are. I have made alot of mistakes, lost points championships, went out of bounds, ETC ETC>> I have learned alot from you all over 15 years, and I hope I am around for the next 15 years to see antique pulling grow and prosper, not die. So please, I ask you all, lets behave, and be courtious to others on and off the track, and here at YT. Thank you, ChadS
