Why does it have cub cadet tires on it? I don't think you will be able to pull to much with them on.

I should have qualified the photo by saying that it left here with 8.3 x 24 Ag tires on it.
The guy transporting it was goofing around.

And I would bet if you used tires like that at the cub tug, you would out pull everyone else

That sure would be the slow race winner. And a cheap alternative for a Howard creeper gear!
