On Saturday last week, the Bootlegger Pulling Team around Jason Svonavec from Rockwood, Pennsylvania in the USA have released on their Facebook fan page that they will compete with a second John Deere component pro stock tractor in the NTPA Grand National Championship this year. After a 4th place finish in the 2019 GN pro stock point standings and the win of the 2019 Bowling Green ring with their 10000lbs John Deere 8360R component pro stock tractor called ''Bootlegger'', the US team have decided to purchase a second pro stock machine for the 2021 season.
Jason purchased the John Deere 8400R component pro stock tractor called ''Boyd & Company Green Streak'' of Mike and Andrew Boyd from Washington, Indiana. First, the Boyd & Company Green Streak was sold to the Simon Sez Motorsports Team (they also purchased the second pro stock of the Boyd's, the Green Streak X) from Farley, Iowa.
After the machine was sold to the Simon Sez Motorsports Team, the Simon's decided to sell the John Deere further to Jason Svonavec. The Green Streak Pulling Team competed with the John Deere successfully under the top 10 of the Lucas Oil PPL Champions Tour in the pro stock tractors division in the past. The tractor has a Full Pull Motorsports chassis with a John Deere 8400R aluminum sheet metal hood and a turbocharged 6 cylinder John Deere engine with a lot of billet parts on diesel fuel.
After the purchase the tractor was renamed into ''Coal Fired'' and the team has registered the John Deere for the NTPA Grand National Championship this year. With the newly added tractor to the team this season, the Rockwood-based team will have a second competitive tractor in the hunt for the championship this year and in the nearby future.
