Pulling Calendar 2009/2010 Will be posted on this site when they are set. Australia is so vast, there is a need for sleds to be built in different areas. This is necessary for the development of the sport. The above link gives some idea of the measurements for a sled. These are a guideline. At the moment there is only one sled on the Eastern side of Australia which can handle Modified tractors. The cost of moving this sled to distant pull centres is a limiting factor to the growth of the sport. If there is any organization or business who would like to gain more information about sleds please contact me and I will pass along more information.

By Scott McGregor Publishers Address and Information I have a copy of the book, and found plenty of interesting reading. There is something for everyone, from the outright petrol heads to restorers, train buffs, aviators and many more items. It was a great honor to be selected as one of the stories, and to be in such company as others in the book. Even if my toy was not in the book I would still say it is a great bit of reading, and just lets us know what is out there in Australia, it would make a great Christmas Present for any bloke who loves tinkering in his shed. Even those who don't have a shed a little insight into others shed. Also it shows how the Aussies can make things here in their own country that is right up there with the best, some of the machines are world class. Well done Scott. thanks for the chance of being in the book. Kelvin Jobling (jobbo) My Current Project, Holden One Tonner
AUSTRALIAN TRACTOR PULL CHAMPIONSHIPS EASTER SATURDAY 2009 The weather was great, crowd numbers were well up on last year. The QTPA would be very pleased with this especially with the bad times in the world economy. We saw a drop off in numbers of big tractors, with the drought and other pressures on the money side of things, some tractors were missing. The most obvious would be the Quamby, I don't think it has missed a pull since it was first built over 30 years ago. Another item missing from the day was our regular Ariel stunt show, sadly we lost one of the greatest pilots in the world of stunt flying, Pip was killed in a crash about 2 months ago, he was a regular at Quambatook . An inclusion into the program was the Tug A Sled event, it was planned to have footballers in teams of 8 attempt to pull the mini sled. There was a lack of fotty teams willing to make the commitment. This was overcome with teams made up of different pulling class drivers, one team from the track workers and a ladies team. I believe they were allowed a couple of extra bodies on the rope. The Quambatook Footballers took out the $1000 prize, not sure but I think the track workers team may have been second, Pulls ranging up to 60 metres were achieved, I think the girls made it to about 50 mtrs, when I get the official results I will .put them along with the tractor results on this page. I would like to thank all who made this day possible, ranging from sponsors workers, pullers and the public who made the pilgrimage to Quambatook. NEW Easter 2009 Quambatook Kelvin 0429 015220 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Riverina Screamer Has been fitted with quad cams The Rolls Royce Meteor engine has been fitted with quad cams, this was the next step, after the Motec fuel injection and electronic ignition. The first run time out after the installation of the quad cams was very successful, with 2 wins, this hard working team has finally managed to achieve what they have been working for. I plan to put some video footage of this outing on this site when time permits. Photos of Quad cams fitted to the Meteor V12 Rolls Royce.
