Getting back to making the 129 go faster........just wondering if the tractor race is a drag, circle or road course? There's much to be said about how you drive the tractor.

Thanks you al for the great ideas albeit well above and beyond what was possible [at least for me that is].
Just to close the loop and as a quick update, the race was all road, for the most part straight, but with a somewhat significant hill. Just to sway the weight odds somewhat more so in my favor, I let my 89lb daughter drive [who BTW actually got into it and even broke out my old bike helmet after she stuck on the number 11]. Anyway, what I'm calling her blocking strategy [others might call just bad driving] paid off and she rolled across the line in second place. If the race was all stock, she probably would have come in first. She now wears her paper Burger King Crown proudly. Thanks again for all great ideas and we'll need to start to prep earlier for next years! bigthink:

Well now for next year, if it is on the same course, you might want to go with not so tall and more smooth tread tires.
Take advantage of that "significant hill" and if there are a lot of turns, even better. Does not sound like a course where "top end" is the favored goal.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
