[August 08, 2023]
County fairs wouldn’t be complete without the
traditional tractor pulls. From the young to old, to the slow and
fast, Logan County Fair did not disappoint with bringing in the
local garden tractor pulls and ITPA (Illinois Tractor Pulling
Association), sponsored by: Chuck Holzwarth Flying Service.
|
The sun was warm, the motors were hot, the
grandstand was full, and the track was loaded with pick-up trucks
and spectators when the 1,050 garden tractors started the night off
at 4:30 pm. The garden tractors had 10 entries overall with Bill
Nipp taking 1st place, Keith Frueh getting 2nd and Jason Vincent
placing in 3rd place.
The ITPA had six different vehicle weight classes where the premiums
paid out went to the first eight that were placed.
