The weight in & registration starts at 8:00 and lawn mowers (kids) pull at 11:00.
Trucks and Tractors start at 1:00
Be there early so you can get weighted in!!!!!
This is a soft track that is very forgiving on trucks (stuff doesn't usually break) These pulls are aimed set up for street legal trucks only!!!! This is for the average Joe to come out and play.

Directions....
Get off I-5 in Bellingham at the Meridian street exit. Go north about 10 miles to Lynden. At the light with the John Deere dealer turn left. Stay on that road. It will go west and around a sweeping turn to the north. When you get to the Y in the road stay Right. Continue straight to Berthousen park on your left side (west)
