Bonham Heritage Days LSGTPA Tractor Pull Results
by LSGTPA

Beautiful weather greeted the LSGTPA pulling teams, as they rolled into Bonham, Texas for the Bonham Heritage Days Festival Tractor Pull.  The event was held at the Powder Creek Park pulling track, located between the historic Bonham Texas & Pacific Depot and the site of the 1880's era, Texas & Pacific Railroad Roundhouse.  The scenic venue featured a hard packed track, providing for a great surface for an exciting afternoon of tractor pulling action.  Arlen Foulks of Racers For Christ delivered the invocation, with Grace Johnson performing the National Anthem during opening ceremonies. 

The Youth Class competitors took to the track first, to open the show in front of a great crowd.  Jared Stephan wheeled the 'Yes Deere' tractor to the first place position, with Kody Langham taking second.  Lane Duncan piloted his 'Texas T-Rex' tractor to a podium finish at third, with Jared Stephan returning aboard the 'Iron Head' machine to place fourth.   In Stock Class, Claude Lewis took the win, with Jimmy and James Helfferich taking second and third.    The Hot Stock Class was paced by Aidan Hovind aboard 'Yes Deere', followed by John Aufdenkamp on the 'Rusteze' tractor.  Steve McCarley pulled to a third place finish, with Kolby Langham taking fourth to round out the field. 

Stock Diesel was won by local favorite, Ken Langham, Jr., aboard the Bonham Service Center tractor.  In Big Stock, John Aufdenkamp took the class title.  Jerry Toland finshed second aboard 'Triple Deuce', while Kolby Langham placed the 'Texas Thunder' tractor in third.  John Aufdenkamp placed the Outlaw Pulling Team tractor atop the Stock Altered Class with the win, recording two Full Pulls on the 200 foot track.  In the Motorcycle Class, Paul Smith wheeled his 'Texan' machine to the victory.  Smith would return to enter and win the Outlaw Class, scoring a Full Pull in each class to double up on the day. 

The Mini Rod Class tractors put on a great show, with Jerry Toland taking the win aboard 'Shinin Time'.  Sarah Crowe used a Full Pull aboard her turbocharged diesel entry, to secure the runnerup spot.  Colby Crowe placed the 'Weekend Warrior' tractor in the third place position, with Howard Houchen recording a fourth place finish aboard 'Back In The Day'.    The Super Rod Class tractors closed the show, with Ken Langham taking the title aboard the Bonham Service Center tractor.  Randell Moody pulled the 'Ridge Runner' to the runnerup spot, with John Kiemele taking the third place podium finish aboard 'Dodge This'.
