this sled and knows everything there is ti know about this sled. It is in Ohio.
He also pulls a big tire mini, 547 Chevy powered. He said he would send you some
picture of the sled. I hope things work out. 937/593/4895, this is shop phone
number. He will answer Bellefontaine Steel and Fabricating /storage. Good Luck,
Kris

Hi guys;
I need help. I have been running my sled most of the summer now but I
would like to know how to get around the insurance issue. It is fine
when the organization can afford to get liability Ins. but I would
like to have more pulls but they can't always come up with the money
to pay the Ins.  I am in Washington State and they don't do to much
pulling I would like to change that but when I try to talk an
Organization into having a pull the Ins. always seams to shut me
down.  Can't we just have fun anymore without paying some big
company.  I have even heard about having to have Ins. for you tractor
in a parade.
Ok I have vented enough just want to find a way to have fun without it
costing (about 500 per day) any help anyone can offer I would really
be greatful.

Brad
