Hoe Handle Tractor Pulling
Many people across the state knew Charlie Ross for tractor pulling as much as his mechanical abilities. This page includes some pictures of the Allis Chalmers D-21 nicknamed "Hoe Handle Engineering" pulling tractor owned by Jeff Englehart and Charlie Ross. They shared the driving time and have been pulling this tractor since about 1985. There are also some pictures of Charlie's first tractor that he built specifically to pull, a 2510 John Deere. The D-21 was pulled mainly in the 8300 lb super stock class in the NTPA Regional II circuit. The tractor was purchased in 2020 by an experienced Allis Chalmers tractor pulling family in northern Ohio.
If you know much about injection pumps, make sure you count the number of lines coming out of the top of the pump and keep in mind a 2510, is only four cylinder.
