Sled Pulling rules for 2023 - what's next!

 One of our most read blogs is the pulling rules throughout the years. Everyone wants to know what changes because we go to so many different areas and we are based on safety via the SFI.

Most will remain the same for 2.6, 3.0 smooth bore classes along with ProMods! However the lower street classes will be emerging again with map-groove classes for the more affordable pulling classes. 

All trucks still must have safety equipment installed based on horsepower and weight! We have seen many accidents during the years and it does come down to safety for everyone that keeps the sport alive.

No accelerates are allowed such as nitrous, methane, jet fuel, etc. in any of the classes. Too much can happen in such a small amount of time and space (300 ft) to allow more power through the accelerates. 

Exhausts must point up with classes including cross bolts in higher hp classes. Only stock exhaust allowed is on pure work stock with DPF, muffler in place on exhaust. 

Only huge difference this year DIESEL Motorsports will NO longer allow dually wheel/tires in classes! This has gotten us in trouble because of the different states legal width on dually setups. Easy fix is to get rid of it.

All former rules and safety equipment will be in place for 2023. So there we have it!

As far as classes here is what we have run in the past:

Workstock - pure stock turbo

Hot Workstock - see rules - larger turbo but limited

2.5 MapGroove Class

2.6 MG Class

2.6 SmoothBore Class

3.0 SB Class

Pro-Mod

Runwhatubrung Class (safety equipment required)


Let's have some fun pulling this year - get back to the track!
