February Meet will be in Alvarado, TX

We'll have to wait for the details, but I guess our February meet will be in Alvarado. We had a good time there last year.

Sorry I missed you guys at Brian's!
Had a communications SNAFU with our itinerary down there that didn't leave enough time for the round trip.

We'll be in Alvarado for sure - anyone besides Brian pulling for the Team? (ahem... RJ )
And Robert we need you to pull too... even if it's just the WW!

TEAM LAZAR rides again! Bgt a Pulling Hook (3" Linnette Ring) with Alvarado in mine. Not as fancy as most but adjustable.... and found a used one WAY under, by half, the usual $300-$400 they seem to cost everywhere.
I'll bring my factory rear bumper in case of Ranch Hand carnage.

RJ

EDIT: Found this thread. Alvarado is on the 23rd!

I wasn't far away (West and Waco), but I couldn't get turned loose long enough to get out that way.
Mike, my roommate finally cleaned out his jeep and found that hardware you had sent back in October.

Well nothin works my way I just found out I have a tournament that ends that same day so I doubt I will get to make it to the pull either! I will be making it to probably all the other ODRA events though.

Alvarado was a blast last year! I will do my best to make it and bring our Chapter Mobile living quarters for anybody that wants to stay in it.


I've got some big plans for my own truck this year....but I just don't think I can pull them together before Feb. 23rd! Tax Refund where are you???

Can't wait to see Rowland and Brian pull!

Dang roommates!

Maybe RJ or Brian will stress-test my new Heavy Duty 8-Position Lightweight Adjustable 304 Stainless Steel Quick-Release 80K# Powdercoated Lunette Ring Sled Hitch... or as I like to call it - the 880 Special

hey guys just letting ya'll know, bobby aranged for the antique tractors to pull during the day. (9am to around 7pm)basically 10 hours of tractors, don't get me wrong I like the tractors just not 10hrs worth, so the reason I'm tellin ya'll this cause I don't want anyone to be mad about no info about this kind of stuff. My advise for people who are comin out to see the trucks, I would say show up around 5:00ish and check out the tractors and get ready for the trucks..unless you plan on making a weekend out of it like several of the N-tx guys...Not trying to scare anyone off just givin the facts..hope this helps....thanks Buck..
