Blue Thunder III and Stever Fraser thunder down the track at 262 feet for the Modified Tractor win. The New York Tractor Pullers returned to the Clinton County Fair in Plattsburgh for the second consecutive year, packing the grandstands with fans eager for horsepower and noise. Four divisions—Limited Pro Tractors, Super Stock Diesel, Modified Tractors, and Modified Trucks—took center stage on a warm summer night. The Super Stock Diesels opened the program, where Code Red, driven by Ken Jamieson, set the tone with a 280‑foot pass. Mechanical trouble sidelined Old Black Witch and Mike Bain, giving Jamieson the victory and leaving the two tied atop the early‑season standings. Four machines rolled out for the Modified Tractors. Heaven Can Wait with Ken Angell posted the first mark at 246.26 feet, but Blue Thunder III and Steven Fraser quickly reset the bar with a strong 262.70‑foot run. Underestimated (Jeremy Smith) and the final entry both gave chase but came up roughly nine feet short. The Limited Pro Tractors produced one of the night’s biggest moments as Joey St. Mary and Cowboy Cattltleaic blasted out the back door with a massive 340‑foot pull. The remaining five competitors tried to reel him in, but Secret Weapon and Andre Bourdeau were the closest—still 28 feet off the winning distance. The Modified Trucks closed the show with six entries battling for bragging rights. Ma and Pa Headache set the early pace at 309 feet before Mad Dog and Todd Jarvis stormed past with a 321‑foot run. The final trio attempted to answer, but Yellow Fever settled for second, ten feet behind the leader. The NYTP tour now shifts to Lowville and the Lewis County Fair for the next stop on the summer schedule. Gallery
