Sounds sort of like a top fueler or a funny car, it's all in the clutch to get it hooked up and down the track.

Don my wife looked at the vid and said she thinks your hot.

the one thing you don't realize watching the vid is there were 30 tractors in the finals that day. they just used the top 7 since that made up a 1/2 hour TV slot. before the finals ran there were 5 heats that totaled over 80 tractors. they took the top 6 from each heat to the finals.so there was a little competition to get there

Austin is right on the money. WOT and easy on the clutch. in the NQS vid that I posted its not uncommon to ride the clutch 20 to 30 feet t keep the revs up . you should see some of the clutch's we take out that are all burnt blue,.
Thanks for sharing guys. I'll give that a try next year. Don, you da man

Would a 20% under drive drop the stock 19 tooth second gear to a 16 tooth equivalent? Also, would a 16 tooth second gear be a good choice if you were only using one pulling gear? The engine is only 12 hp now but I plan to try and get 16 hp or so out of it.

20 % is pretty close, what size tires are you planning on running?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
