Prospect, PA. (July 13, 2026)- The 2026 Big Butler Fair Truck and Tractor Pull got everything it was promised and then some. CS Pulling Promotions, in partnership with Western PA Tractor and Truck Pullers Inc., returned to the Big Butler Fair for the second consecutive year and produced two full nights of truck and tractor pulling on Wednesday, July 8 and Thursday, July 9, 2026, in front of a capacity crowd at the Big Butler Fairgrounds in Prospect, Pennsylvania. Ten classes hit the fresh clay over two nights, with the new CS Pulling Promotions LED video board making its Big Butler Fair debut and full livestream coverage running both nights. Fans who missed a hook can watch every pass right now on the CS Pulling Promotions YouTube channel.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 8.

The High Performance Trucks, sanctioned through Western PA Tractor and Truck Pullers Inc., opened the week. Brett Casciere of Saltsburgh, Pennsylvania set the mark early with the 72 Chevy "Nothing Else Matters" at 306.470 and nobody caught him. Matt Moser of Cabot, Pennsylvania took second with the 79 Ford F350 "Judgement Day" at 296.740, and James Blair of Clarksburg, Pennsylvania rounded out the podium with the Ford "Headstrong" at 294.740.


The Hot Rod V-8 Tractors followed and the Clinton, Pennsylvania crowd had plenty to cheer about. Mike Janoski put the International "Bowtie Binder" out front at 321.860 to claim 50 points and the win. Jeremy Seibel kept it in Clinton with the Farmall 1206 "Leaded" at 318.400 for second, and Zachary English of East Springfield, Pennsylvania broke up the party with the Massey Harris 44 "Red Slinger" at 309.980 for third. Further down the sheet, John Roy in the Minneapolis Moline G1000 "Never Satisfied" and Dennis Moose in the 1957 Oliver Super 88 "Row Crop Road Runner" finished in a dead heat at 306.820. You will not find a tighter measurement all season.


The 2.6 Pro Street Diesel Trucks, brought to you by Apex Diesel Performance, came down to a two foot spread at the top. Renee Dean of Ellwood City, Pennsylvania drove the 1980 Chevy Silverado "Harvest Wrecker" to a winning 292.680 and 50 points, holding off Brandon Fender of Limestone, Tennessee and the 96 Dodge "2nd Go Round" at 291.780.

Sam Magill Sr. of Saxonburg, Pennsylvania grabbed second with the 1967 Chevy "Predator 4" at 314.440, and Trad Dill made the haul from Middlebourne, West Virginia worth it with the 1991 Chevy "Buckeye Bandit" at 313.740 for third.

THURSDAY, JULY 9.

The Performance Street Trucks, sanctioned through Western PA Tractor and Truck Pullers Inc., opened night two and Matt Moser came right back for more. One night after a runner-up finish in the High Performance Trucks, Moser drove the 76 Ford F350 "White Whiskey" to a winning 307.970. Ira Benett of Polk, Pennsylvania made him earn it with the 78 Ford "Steal This" at 306.120, less than two feet back, and Carl Wickline of Kennerdell, Pennsylvania took third with the 96 Ford "Moose on the Loose" at 260.590.


The Limited Pro A-Pump Tractors brought the horsepower, brought the field, and made a statement. With one of the deepest turnouts of any class across the two nights, the Limited Pro A-Pump class has proven it is the dominant big horsepower smoker class in Western Pennsylvania right now. Nathan Graham of Greensburg, Pennsylvania put the Ford 9000 "Blue Reaper" way out to 348.540 for the win and 50 points. Donnie Hebenthal of Ford City, Pennsylvania took second with the International 766 "Mechanically Inclined" at 340.160, and Kayla Graham made it two Grahams on the podium with the New Holland 8970 "Billet Blue" at 334.350 for third. The night was not without heartbreak, as Gregg Ferringer of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania suffered a catastrophic engine failure aboard the John Deere "Smokin' John."


The Run What Ya Brung class, brought to you by Warren Diesel Injection, delivered its usual unpredictability with a field that mixed multiple 2WD trucks, 4WD blower trucks, and 4WD diesel super stock trucks all hooking against one another. Jerry Berghoff of West Alexander, Pennsylvania topped the board with the 72 Chevy "Attitude Adjuster Reloaded" at 325.870, while Eddie Zedreck of Chicora, Pennsylvania put the 86 Chevy S10 "Thunder Bolt" out to 314.040 for second. Justin Garwood of Columbiana, Ohio took third with the Dodge "Goat on a Rope" at 309.380, and Brad Berghoff of Valley Grove, West Virginia kept the Attitude Adjuster name rolling with a fourth place run in the Ford 2010 "Attitude Adjuster II."


The Super Semi Trucks shook the fairgrounds. Albert Francis of Leroy, Ohio, one of the young guns on the CS circuit, backed up the hype and drove the 86 Mack "Silver Bullet 1" to a winning 339.510. Bethanne Scott of Perrysburg, Ohio took second with the Freightliner "Miss Mokey" at 332.540, and Mark Scott kept it in the Perrysburg family with the Freightliner "Mr. Mokey" at 308.020 for third. Vinnie Giulitto of Ravenna, Ohio was on hand with the 1983 Mack Superliner "Full Spool," and Chase Catenese of Ravenna, Ohio brought the "Snowman" out for an exhibition appearance to the delight of the crowd.


The Open Street Diesel Trucks closed the week with the deepest field of the event and the longest distance of the entire two nights. Travis Ritenour of Butler, Pennsylvania gave the hometown crowd exactly what it came for, driving the 2008 Ram 2500 "Playin' Hooky" to a massive 367.890 for the win and 50 points. Travis Jones of Graysville, Pennsylvania chased him hard with the 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 "Work Wages Wasted" at 361.470, and Dave Francis of Perry, Ohio rounded out the podium at 331.340 in the 09 F250.
