Twelfth Annual America's Pull
2-Day National Champions Tour
America's Pull
at the Marshall-Putnam Fairgrounds in Henry, Illinois will host the Lucas Oil
Pro Pulling League National Champions Tour, Saturday, July 10th at 6:30 p.m. and
3:00 p.m. Sunday afternoon July 11th, 2010. This will
be the fair's twelfth year to hold this nationally televised truck and tractor
pull in Henry, Illinois.
 America's Pull traditionally offers one of the highest purse payouts in
all of North America. Each class will receive a raised purse payout above
the tour standards ensuring that best competitors in North America will target
this premier pulling event. This pull not only offers big money, but it also
awards the Lucas Oil World Cup to the winner of each class. The
32 inch tall engraved lead crystal vase is revered by pullers who have won it
and those that wish to have it.
C lasses
competing at the 2010 event will include:
Super Modified Tractors
Pro Stock Tractors
Unlimited Super Stock Tractors
Modified 4WD Trucks
Diesel Super Stock 4WD Trucks

Both days will
feature all five classes. Saturday evening's pull will set the stage for the Sunday
afternoon finals where the PPL World Cup will be awarded.
This national event is conducted on two parallel clay tracks
specifically designed for pulling, providing two of the toughest and most
consistent pulling surfaces in the country. Stadium seating along both
sides of the two pulling surfaces gives the pulling fans excellent visibility of
the entire track. Two rows of interconnected concrete safety barriers line
both sides of the track. The M-P Fair has one of the best nighttime
lighting systems in the country enhancing the ESPN TV filming and fan viewing.
If you want a full day of pulling, come to the fair Saturday
morning at 11:00 a.m. and take in 10 classes of farm stock tractors and street
