DELTA COUNTY FAIR & LIVESTOCK SHOW LSGTPA TRACTOR PULL RESULTS
The Delta County Fair played host to the Lone Star Garden Tractor Pullers Association's 2016 Season Opener, marking the second year the LSGTPA opened the season in Cooper, Texas. Rocky Young Construction prepared an awesome 200 foot track for the competitors, at the historic Harmon Park facility. The hillside track consists of a great surface, with enough clay to provide excellent traction for tractor pulling.
The LSGTPA Youth Class competitors took to the sticky track first, with Lane Duncan taking the title aboard his 'Twisted Kitty' tractor. Lane used a first round Full Pull to secure the win, in the debut of his brand new machine. Jared Stephan scored the runnerup finish, aboard his 'Iron Head' entry, for the Moody Pulling Team. Jacob Hovind made his LSGTPA pulling debut, scoring a third place finish aboard his 'Yes Deere' tractor, for the Mean Green Pulling Team camp. Lane Duncan pulled double duty, piloting his 'Texas T-Rex' entry to a fourth place finish on the day, after having to lift to avoid going out of bounds.
