2022 Build-Off ???

I have put out some posts in the Facebook interwebs to see if there was interest in a 2022 build-off. So far I haven’t even a nibble. Not sure if we have enough traffic these days to have one.

I think that site traffic will pick up this winter when shop season starts up again. I’d want to build something and enter, but I have no money, less time than that, and no tractor to enter. I think that if we offer it, people will come though. Just my 2c, but maybe it’s only Monopoly money heh

I’d like to do it as well. Personally.

150 people have seen the Facebook post with only 1 like and no comments. Sounds like here.

id enter the build off im not gonna win but hey also i highly doubt it would make compitition spec  as i am not super skilled i can certainly try though! alsoo i have a tractor to build and some money to finish it! if we do i wanna build a craftsman gt 6 speed witha honda gx340 and its gonna be dragster

The object is to have fun. Winning would be great, but doing the build is the goal. 

I’m not sure what to think of the ‘condition’ of the hobby. Seems that people aren’t as gung-ho as they were a few years ago. I don’t do Facebook or any of the ‘social’ sites at all. They are just not fit for a forum type of interaction, IMO. Nothing flows. On a forum, you can read what you want and read it in any sequence. I learned a lot from this forum by looking through the old threads. It is sad that things are so slow. 

I’ll keep trying to post my progress in hopes of helping others.

That’s dead on right. The hobby is alive more than ever. It’s just lived out on Facebook in many many groups.

I'm all up for it.  I have the parts and a tractor, so count me in. I always love looking at all the entries.

so whats that atleast 3 entrees? if we can get a couple more i think we gonna have a build off!

If i can convince my parents to let me park another tractor in the yard, and if i can get up enough money from selling stuff from this bulk pickup day, i might be in

I would probably enter the build off if we had one, it’s doubtful I’ll get it done by the deadline but it’s worth a shot

It's going to run from Jan 1 to Dec 1.  11 months!  LOL

so is five people enough?

We'll see how it goes.  I'll open it up probably Jan 1 and go from there.
