Huntsman Prostock Team visits France

This past weekend the McCormick  Huntsman Prostock Team have exhibited at the open days of the LeClerc  McCormick dealership near to Bernay in France, by kind invitation of the LeClerc family. Also in attendance (and providing transport as usual) was mad Englishman Tony Brugger with the now legendary Mean Old Pete Peterbilt   pulling truck.

The LeClerc family are great supporters of tractor pulling, providing tow-back and grader tractors for the Eurocup event in Bernay. This last weekend saw the annual open days of the Company to display  their full product range and show off their very impressive headquarters to the many hundreds of visitors that attended.

On Saturday  night we were guests of the FTPF at their  dinner dance in Bernay, which was a most enjoyable evening, with plenty of eating, drinking and dancing. (Tony has now crossed `dancing with nice French ladies` off his to do list), our thanks go to them for the invitation. Also to the No Limits Team for their hospitality on the evening and The Diable Rouge Team for the lunch and showing us their workshop the next day.

Once again many thanks to the LeClerc family for the invitation and looking after us so well.
