The fluid in the wagon tires never added up to me, if I remember right the NCGA yield plots are at least 1.5 acres, assuming he could get 2,000lbs of fluid in the wagon tires that's equivalent to 35 bushels of corn or 24 BPA. Also on a deal like that I'm sure there would be enough people around to make switching wagons hard to keep secret.


Exactly. You can't hide enough weight in a gravity wagon to make a difference. It's not like he was winning by 5 bu.

Did he bend, stretch, and push the envelope on rules - yes, just like he did in sled racing. He was a high octane kind of guy and enjoyable to talk with.

An ex wife's accusations and fluid in the tires just don't pass the smell test for me.
