July 27th & 28th Tanner, AL
2007 info below...
The Mid-South Pullers Association's is headed to Tanner, Alabama for some more Alabama clay. This weekend, July 27th and 28th, the Tanner High School Quarterback Club will be hosting their 31st annual “Alabama Championships” truck and tractor pull. The event will take place at 7:00 pm sharp each night at Tanner High School behind the football field. Tanner has been the recipient of the 2-Day Pull of the Year award many times so expect nothing but the best. The Tanner area is also home to many pullers such as Keith & Shirley Haney, Louis & Leon Haney, Tommy Williamson, and Darrell Norman (just to name a few).
The “Alabama Championships” 2-Day event will have 7 exciting classes each night. The 6,000# Super Stock, 8,000# Super Stock, 10,000# Pro Stock, 6,200# Two-Wheel Drive Trucks, 6,200 # Super Modified Four-Wheel Drive trucks, 9,300# Super Farm, and the 6,000# Pro Stock Four-Wheel Drive trucks will compete for over $35,000 in purse money. The Southern Impact sled owned and operated by Sam Swann will be there to put the stop on the competition. Registration closes as 6:30PM each night followed by a drivers meeting @ 6:45. The first pull of the night will follow our National Anthem at 7:00 PM each night.
On Saturday the pullers and crew will get a taste of southern hospitality when Louis & Leon Haney of Haney Equipment, located off of HWY 72 in Athens, provides the pullers and crew a BBQ lunch. Also, on Saturday @ 5:00 PM there will be ice cold watermelon at the track in Tanner under the new picnic pavilion.
It should be a great weekend! I hope to see you there.
