The component limited super stock called ''Never Done'' of Soren Hansen from Arnum, in the south of Denmark, was sold to a new owner in Germany. After 5 seasons, Soren decided to offer his tractor for sale already during the 2023 season. The Dane had a lot of success with his John Deere 8410 in the limited super stock class during this time, and won some events in Denmark and outside his home country as well. He also competed, many times in Germany and in the Netherlands, with his machine.
In the winter of 2017, Soren Hansen started to build the little alky burner for the limited super stock class.
But the whole building of the John Deere took almost 2 years, but the result which came out at the end was very nice. The tractor was equipped with a used ACE Chassis chrome-moly tube chassis with Firestone 24.5x32 tires on polished Keizer Wheel aluminum rims and a turbocharged 7.6l John Deere alky burner engine built by Willem Veldhuizen of Veldhuizen Special Products from Loosdrecht in the Netherlands. Already in its first season in 2019, the tractor showed a lot of potential on the pulling tracks in Denmark, the Netherlands and Germany. Soren Hansen also was supported by Willem Veldhuizen during this season, who set up the fuel system for the engine to get everything running properly.
During those 5 seasons, Soren also sometimes to fought with some little gremlins in the John Deere, but when the Never Done ran very well it was a real force to be reckoned with.
At the final round of the German Championship in Schlechtenwegen, the Never Done was hand over to the new owners. The new owner of the tractor is a big agricultural contractor from the county of Wesermarsch in North Germany. The Hergen Stühmer GmbH from Stadland owns the John Deere limited super stock now. The Hergen Stühmer GmbH is a contracting company which is doing all kinds of agricultural services for farmers in their county. The tractor will be repaired, maintained and driven among others by Andree Martsch, a member of the Red Shadow sled Team in Edewecht.
Andree already got the chance to drive the component limited super stock in Schlechtenwegen for the first time. But it is possible that more drivers join and drive the limited super stock in the future.
The team currently consists of 4 people who take care of the tractor. The guys are already busy with the maintenance of the limited super stock for next year. This winter the Alky burner power plant will be completely overhauled to have a good properly running engine for the new season.
For the 2024 season, the new team will receive help and support from Soren Hansen from Denmark, and it's also planned to run all German Championship rounds of the limited super stock class.
One will be sure, the Never Done will be run in the German Championship in 2024. And what about Soren Hansen, currently nothing is known about his plans for the future or what he is doing next in the tractor pulling sport. We will see what comes out in the future!
