I would love to see the ITPA have a 4000# class.
I own an Allis WD and like many others with lower
HP tractors have nowhere to pull. It is nearly
impossible to make a WD powerful enough to pull 5500# class.
A 4000# class would be a good starter class for
someone like me who are young, enjoy pulling, and don't
have the money it takes to build a tractor to compete
in the other classes. I pulled in Barnyard classes
about 4 years ago on my dad's WC, which I really
enjoyed. Then when I was too old for that I pulled garden
tractors but it is getting too far to drive for those, and
it's not quite as much fun as antiques.<br>I would
like any feedback. Tell me what you think.<br>whether
I should sell the tractor and go fly a kite. Or if
it would be worth a try. leme know. Thanks for your
time. Steve
