Campbellford Fair Vintage Tractor Pulling Rules- 2025

The following pulling rules have been developed in the interest of preserving and displaying antique tractors. It is anticipated that all persons participating in pulling events will accept these rules for this purpose and in the spirit in which they were intended. General rules may change at the discretion of the sled operator as deemed necessary.

1. Vintage Tractors must be of a model/series that was manufactured in 1959 or prior. (It is recognized that certain 1960 tractors had been allowed to pull previously, and they will have grandfathered status.

2. History of the tractor is to be provided for the announcer

3. Tractor is to pull in one class only, with the winner’s option of pulling in a weight class heavier.

4. First puller of a class (except in a pull-off) has the option to re-pull. The decision to do so must be made prior to unhooking from the sled and the puller will re-pull in 2^ndor 3^rd position.

5. No front wheel lifting.

6. During hook-up, tractor must be in neutral, and driver’s hands and feet must be off the controls.

7. Hook person must stand behind the stop plate to hook the tractor.

8. Track width is 16 feet.

9. Puller must be available prior to the pull.

10. Absolutely no jerking of the sled at start of the pull.

11. Pull has 25 feet to restart.

12. Torque amplifiers, multi-power or hi-low shifters may not be shifted while pulling is in progress.

13. Tractors may not exceed a designated maximum speed limit. (currently 4.5 MPH but this may be changed if the conditions justify it). The first time the horn blows is a warning, and the second time is the end of the pull, distance determined at this point.

20. No string attached to the governor or carburetor.

21. Maximum tire size allowed is 38” diameter. Only rubber tires are allowed. The use of radial tires as well as any cut tires is discouraged, as they are not consistent with antique tractors.
