Believe it or not the pulls we have are way, way behind the times. Our trophies cost about 3 bucks and 95% of what shows up to pull, they just came out of the field or is somebody's clunker just sitting around. There's an "over 12,000 lb class" that I watch a JD 4430 take it every year. I want to take this 1206 that I just purchased and walk the dog all over him this year; i.e. take it down to the fence just past the 300 ft mark with as much speed and torque I can give it. Give the crowd and 4430 guy something to remember. He makes a slow but solid pull and never has any competition. I think when I repaint it I'm going to even leave the "Turbo" emblem off for now and put a set of "806" plates on the side. Most won't know the difference and I can count on my fingers the names of those who will and they'll get a kick out of it. Like I said, we're small and not with the times. Wasn't the 1206 rated at 120 hp? And if I just turn up the pump, how much do you think I can get out of it? I read where the JD 4430 is rated at 125 hp.
