I want to credit the man on the ford he is a winner,his tractor was not, TODAY. The ford had small rear weights,i did not,/ i ran half diesel-half kerosene,we hooked beside our sixty ft. long barn in the middle of it,the first one to take the other backwards to the end won,we pulled twice-the 544 demolished the ford,red hooked up in the grass like it was on steel wheels. the last pull with the 544,i actually shifted the hydro up. the ford out starts the i.h.,paint looks better,but bombed out in a dead pull,shame on my i.h. buddies for even doubting,one problem was the Hydro, was screaming bloody murder when we finished,let it idle an cool for a while,could not wait to post results,thanks for all the responses. have to admit was good to see a Ford have to limp home.

Sounds sweet. I remember when I was a kid/young adult. A neighbor was slamming our old 560 farmall telling how his 620 deere would pull it in half and all that crap. We did the same thing,drawbar to drawbar via a 20 foot chain. He pulled hard with that old deere but my TA made the difference. I only drug him about 10 feet backwards before he waved his hands to stop. It was quite a sight,we must have spun 3 miles in those 10 feet. I waited about a year before I told grandpa what we'd done(I knew he'd be pissed cause it was dangerous) But to my suprise he said he'd sure like to have seen that and that I should have drug that loud mouthed so and so all the way through town. Those were some good memories.

Good to see an IH win again. You know you are going to have guys heck for posting this, other guys have posted stuff on here about the OLD FASHION PULLS , and some post pics of it, they start telling you to to grow up. I'd rather be hooked to a sled than to another tractor.
