On July 30, 2022, the Eastern Indiana District Tractor Puller Association held its weekly pull that had 107 hooks. The weather was beautiful but hot all day. Darren Niehoff and Dave Angle had their game faces on. They both won two classes. Dave won the 6500 being the last puller. Towards the end of the class there was two spots that pullers were going to. Dave won the class by going through two sets of previous pullers holes. Darren won the 6000 with the Cockshutt 50-50 by backing the sled a lot farther than the previous puller. He noticed that tractors were stopping when they hit previous pullers tracks. Backing it up this far gave him the moment when he got in the tracks he didn’t stop right away. The next puller did not do that and stopped right away. Dave won the 7000 class with his first hook getting the only full pull in the class. Darren won the 10,000 at the beginning of the class. The Black Oliver 1800-18 gave it all it had and did not slip a lung on the tires. This video was record and will be uploaded to our YouTube page in the future.
