Lebrun Pulling Team returns!

The Lebrun Pulling Team around the brothers Gonzague and Edouard Lebrun and their cousin Marc Lebrun from Airan in France will return to the pulling sport in 2021. After a 27 years absence, the both sons (Gonzague and Edouard) of the former super stock competitor Christian Lebrun have decided to build a completely new pulling tractor for the limited super stock class. The new limited super stock will have a tube chassis from Canada with a new Case IH Optum 300 CVX hood and a turbocharged 6 cylinder IH engine on alcohol fuel.
The French Team purchased the old tube chassis of the Canadian Case IH Steiger STX 500 super stock open and light super stock tractor called ''Crazy Canuck'' from Patrice Beaudry in Granby, Quebec, Canada.
The Lebrun Family competed in the 80s and early 90s with a diesel super stock tractor in the French Championship. During those last 3 years Gonzague and Edouard Lebrun helped Benoit Soenen from Bernay to rebuild his tractor called ''Diable Rouge'' from a pro stock into a limited super stock and learned there a lot about the alcohol technic on the engine. The maiden run of the new Case IH Optum machine is planned for 2021.
