    About Us
            Please allow us to introduce ourselves.  Michindoh was originally formed as Tri-State Pullers.  Tri-States' main class at the time was the two-wheel drive class, although there was a small following of pro-stock four-wheel drive trucks.  In 1995, the Tri-States Pullers renamed  the club to Michindoh, which is the abbreviation for Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio.  Michindoh has seen much growth and change.  This is possible because of the strong group of members that are also pulling competitors.


             By paying the membership fees, each driver will be allowed to pull at Michindoh sanctioned events, and have the right to vote on the rules (one vote per vehicle).  Each member will receive a membership card and each vehicle an identification number.  The membership card must be presented when registering to pull at each event.  Membership fees will be due on May 1, 2010.  Michindoh would appreciate membership fees being paid before May 1, 2010 in order to pay for the insurance at a lower, more reasonable rate.  All memberships have to be paid before any driver pulls in any Michindoh points classes!  No exceptions! No waivers!

             Membership fees are $60.00 for one pulling vehicle and one driver.  $30.00 for each additional vehicle or driver. 

               Any driver wishing to pull at only one Michindoh event will have the option to pay the one-entry vehicle and driver membership.  This fee will be $30.00.  This puller will not receive voting rights.  If this puller wishes to enter an additional hook at the same event or at another event he/she will have to pay the remaining $30.00 of the vehicle and driver membership fee.  The puller will then have the full membership benefits from above.

                                                    5500# 2WD Small Block

  •   Make checks payable to:   Michindoh Pulling Association   
  •   Mail To:   Brenda Mowery - 2626 W 500 N -  Decatur, IN 46733


            A Michindoh safety tech or officer will be in charge of track preparation and maintenance.  All event personnel will be under their supervision.  Failure of event personnel to comply will mean cancellation of the event.  This rule has been added to provide better pulling tracks.  Michindoh members will also be required to assist the officers with other track work as needed at the pulls, such as lining up pulling vehicles, flagging, etc.  Members may be required to volunteer for such a job at the pulls in order to be able pull at the event. 


            Points will be awarded in the 6200lb. Super Stock 2WD, the 6200lb. Altered 4WD, the 10,000lb. Hot Farm Tractor, the 8000lb. 3.0 Diesel, the 5500# Small Block 2WD, the American Big Block Modified Rails, the 6000lb. 4WD Stateline Pro Street and the 8000# 2.6 Diesel classes.  Points are awarded to the vehicle, not to the driver.  The top vehicle of each class will win a plaque for 1st place and free entry for the next season.  Each pulling vehicle will receive placing point at each pulling event.  First place will be awarded 30 points, Second place will be awarded 29 points, and so on.  If a vehicle is disqualified, it will receive the last place points awarded for that class.  If a pull is cancelled, no points will be awarded.  At the end of the pulling season if there is a tie in points between vehicles in the same class, the distances that each of the vehicles pulled at each of the events will be added together.  Whoever has the furthest total distance will be awarded the points championship. 


           You may protest (if you are Michindoh member) to have any vehicle pumped the night of a pull by presenting $100.00 to the president or vice president present.  If the vehicle is found to be illegal, the person being protested must pay the $100.00.  You may also protest to have a vehicle torn down.  The person protesting must bring $500.00 cash to the president or vice president present.  The protest will be discussed.  If the vehicle in question is to be torn down, it will have the option to do it at the track or at the nearest suitable location.  If the vehicle in question is legal, it will keep the $500.00 cash.  Any vehicle found illegal and refuses to be protested or teched, it will be barred from competition for one year.  Unless,  they are willing to pay a reinstatement fee of $500.00 to the club.  Any money and points to date and won the day of the protest will be refunded.  If the vehicle in question refuses to refund winnings, the amount of those winnings will be added to the reinstatement fee.  The tech-official for the class of the vehicle has the right to have a valve cover pulled on any vehicle they feel may be in violation of any rules without a protest fee.
