the Tifton Truck and Tractor pull is this weekend and i am thinking about entering mine in the amature class..... how does the sled hook to the truck? what will i need? pics will be great as this will be a first time for me..... that is if i go.....

 

Big oval/round hook on your receiver...

The sled has a big chain hook....looking for pics for ya now!

 

cool beans....

 

From the DHRA Sled Pulling Rulebook!

Hitch:
The hitch must be a "Reese"-style hitch; reinforcements are permitted. Trick hitches are prohibited.
The hooking point must be the rear-most point on the vehicle and must be rearward of the stock
location of the tailgate. The hitch must be horizontal to the ground and stationary in all directions.
Bumpers may be notched or removed. The hitch's height from the ground may not exceed 26
inches. The hooking point must have a minimum 3.00 inch inside diameter opening for the sled
hook. The hooking point will be measured to the center of the clevis loop.
