Pullin At The Pit

05/30/2026

Now that MudFest Hillman memorial day weekend event is over we were able to start reshaping our spectator area for this year! Amazing how much this area has changed in 3 years!

We’ve received so many compliments on our trophies over the past two years! From the start, we wanted to create something unique—plaques that pullers could take home as a lasting reminder of the fun and memories made on event day.

These trophies wouldn’t be possible without the support of our amazing sponsors, so a big thank you to Midway Iron, Funny Farm Fab, and Queen Coatings for helping make it all happen!

Now for the big question…

Who wants to take a guess at which brand of tractor weight we’ll be featuring this year? 🚜

This year, we wanted to give back to our top sponsors in a special way—so we created custom thank-you plaques to match last year’s trophies 🏆

We’ve officially hand-delivered them all, and the feedback has been amazing. We truly appreciate the support from each and every one of our sponsors!

If you’d like one of these plaques hanging in your store, office, or shop, we’d love to have you on board. Reach out to us to learn more about sponsoring our pull!

It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing of Mr. Ron (Ronnie) Rinkel. As the original landowner and a longtime partner of Mudfest LLC, Ronnie was instrumental to our success. Without his unwavering support and the use of his land and equipment over the years, we would not have been able to provide a venue for camping and off-road events.

In his honor, the show must go on. We plan to continue bringing you action-packed, family-friendly events just as he would have wanted.

We look forward to seeing you May 22–25 for our Mudfest mud truck, ATV, and camping event, as well as on September 26th for the Pullin at the Pit truck and tractor pull.

Attention pullers!

Putting this out early so as you're working on your pullers this winter and getting ready for the year. We ask that everyone please take some time and add some safety equipment. All of the following will be required for our pull this September.

Improved and Hot Farm tractors:
Must have ROPS, wheelie bars, pulling hitch (no clevises), and kill switch.

Pickups:
As past years we will be doing Heartland truck pullers rules and points classes. Please go to heartlandtruckpullers.com and check out their rules.

Also we will be requiring helmets in everything above stock pickups and farm stock tractors.

Please take some time and look over our rules from 2025 as the 2026 rules will likely be the same other than the changes above.

Mark your calendars September 26th, 2026.
