The National Tractor Pullers Association’s premier Pro Stock tractors are preparing for one of the biggest events on the summer pulling calendar as the Grand National circuit heads to Tomah, Wisconsin, for the Budweiser Dairyland Super National Truck and Tractor Pull on June 25 through June 27.
Widely regarded as one of the most prestigious venues in professional tractor pulling, Tomah regularly attracts top teams, packed grandstands, and some of the most competitive fields in the sport. With Grand National points on the line, the upcoming Pro Stock battle is expected to be among the highlights of the three day event.
Pro Stock Tractor Competition
The Grand National Pro Stock division represents the highest level of naturally aspirated agricultural based tractor competition in North America.
These machines may retain the appearance of production farm tractors, but beneath the sheet metal they are purpose built competition vehicles capable of producing several thousand horsepower. Massive turbochargers, specialized fuel systems, and highly developed diesel engines allow competitors to transfer extraordinary power to the track while maintaining traction over the full pulling distance.
Tomah’s track conditions have historically rewarded both horsepower and setup precision, making it a venue where engineering decisions can be just as important as raw engine output.
One of Pulling’s Biggest Stages
The Budweiser Dairyland Super National has earned a reputation as one of the crown jewel events on the NTPA schedule.
Unlike smaller regional pulls, Tomah attracts elite competitors from across the United States, creating a field where virtually every hook can influence championship standings. Fans can expect dramatic side by side comparisons between different engine combinations, chassis setups, tire strategies, and driving techniques.
The event is also known for producing some of the most memorable visual moments in tractor pulling, with towering black smoke plumes, roaring diesel engines, and packed grandstands creating an atmosphere that few motorsports can match.
Why Tomah Matters
From a technical perspective, Tomah is often one of the best opportunities to evaluate the current state of Pro Stock tractor development.
Because so many leading teams compete at the event, trends in engine tuning, turbocharger technology, weight distribution, and chassis setup become visible in real world competition. For dedicated pulling fans, the event offers a snapshot of where the sport’s technology is heading during the 2026 season.
My view is that Tomah remains one of the few events capable of combining championship level competition with a festival style atmosphere. Even in an era of expanding livestream coverage, it continues to be one of the benchmark destinations for both hardcore pulling enthusiasts and casual motorsports fans.
