2010 SEASON

LIMITED PRO/SUPER FARM TRACTORS

Full Pull Productions will continue our industry-leading “free entry” program for the Super Farm and Limited Pro combined tractor class again in 2010. The program will offer totally “free entry” to each tractor listed below at POINT events only. These tractors qualified due to their performance in the 2009 point race for the Super Farm and Limited Pro tractor division.

As long as each individual tractor attends and participates in each and every point event on the 2010 schedule events and remains in the ‘top ten’ in points for 2010, that tractor will continue to receive ‘free entry’ for the season.

The ‘one dropped hook’ will NOT count against a tractor in the “free entry program” unless or until the tractor falls out of the TOP TEN in points. A ‘dropped hook’ will count as participation at that event since points are awarded.

Once a tractor has used its ‘dropped hook’ and is absent from one additional point event that particular tractor will lose eligibility to receive ‘free entry’ and cannot regain eligibility in 2010. Any tractor that competes at another pull on the same calendar day as a USA-EAST point pull will immediately become ineligible for this program. Removal of a tractor from this list is strictly at the option of Full Pull Productions. Our plan is to continue this program in 2011 with the top eight (8) tractors to be eligible for ‘free entry’.
