Truck Pulling Guidelines

1.      All participating trucks are required to be weighed immediately following the conclusion of the pull. If the vehicle is found to be over the required weight limit that truck will be disqualified from that round of the pulling competition.

2.      Each participating truck will be hooked to the sled with the chain pulled tight. When the truck is no longer able to gain forward drive, a No Limit R/C Track Official will signal you to stop, thus ending your pull. The distance from the front of the pulling sleds skid plate will then be measured.

3.      The Pulling track is 4' x 30'. In the event a participating truck goes out of bounds, the distance will be measured at the area of the pull sled which crosses the out of bounds marker.

4.      There will be 2 rounds of pulling before the competition moves forward onto the pull off. If a competitor records a full pull in round 1, they are not required to pull in round 2.

5.      This gives each competitor 2 chances to record a full pull which will earn them a spot in the pull off.  A "pull off" will result if two or more trucks record a full pull. For the "pull off" extra weight will be added to the sled until a winner can be determined. There will be only 1 round in the pull off.

6.       If a participating truck disregards a No Limit R/C Track Official's signal to cease pull, which results in an over pull, the truck will be disqualified.

7.      If  the pulling surface is carpet each truck is required to have the exhaust defected away from saturating the carpet pulling surface with oil and smoke, This can be done be re-indexing the exhaust pipe or by using a exhaust defector.

8.      4x4 Small Block Pulling trucks can weigh no more than 15 pounds.

9.      4x4 Big Block Pulling Trucks can weight no more than 17.5 pounds.

10. 4x4 Unlimited Big Block Pulling Trucks must weigh 17.6 pounds and above. 

11. 4x4 Nitro Small block, and 4x4 nitro Big block classes no power additives and only nitro burning single engine set ups.  Small block, big block and unlimited 4x4 nitro classes will compete for prizes on dirt. All 2X4 set ups, all gasoline set ups and all electric set ups will compete in the exhibition pulling class and may compete on dirt or carpet if time permits.

 12. Each participating Pulling Truck must have an affixed hitch for hooking to the sled. This hitch may be aluminum or steel. No plastic Zip ties will be allowed.

13. Participants are not allowed to enter the same truck under two different drivers. No Truck sharing will be permitted. No switching bodies onto diffrent chassis or vise versa will not be permitted or tolerated. Competitors caught doing this will be disqualifed from the entire event.

14. All Trucks must have a Failsafe installed
