GREENVILLE – The 2025 Farm Power of the Past hosted the Darke County Tractor Pullers Association (DCTPA) Friday night, Truck and Tractor Pull in a warm-up to the National Tractor Pullers Association (NTPA) Regional/National Pull at the 2025 Great Darke County Fair.

“We had a great turnout of vehicles,” said Keith Horst, the voice of DCTPA. “We got done at a decent time. All in all, it was a good show.”

Fans were treated to 45 hooks with nearly three hours of pulling in front of the local fair grandstand.

“We had good weather for the pull,” Horst noted. “The track is in good shape and was taking a lot of horsepower.”

The DCTPA will once again be hosting a full day of truck and tractor pulling at the Darke County Fair on Tuesday, August 19, starting at 10 a.m., with antiques on one side of the track and the fast classes on the other side.

“At 7 p.m. that night, we’ll have the NTPA Regional/National events,” Horst said. “We’ll have six classes of competition that night. Light Pro Stock, Hot Farm, 5.0 Pro Stocks, Two Wheel Drive Trucks, Modified Tractors, and 3.0 Pro Stock Diesel Truck.”
