Drawbar pull point can be straight or “drop” configuration drawbar.
2) Fast Hitches (IHC) - Fast Hitches (IHC) must be fixed rigid so as to not be able to move when pulling. The top of the hitch will be 20”.

5) Weight Classes – will be 4500 lbs, 5250, 6000, 7500, 9000, 10500, and OPEN. Plow class will also be assigned to each tractor, e.g., an IHC “M” will not be allowed to compete in the 4500 or 5250 class since it’s rated as a 3 plow tractor vs a 2 plow of an IHC “H” 2 plow tractor. The M-M “G” will be considered a 7500, 4 plow tractor.
