There will be the whine of motors under strain and the smell of diesel in the air this weekend in Yorkton.

The reason -- Yorkton Hyundai’s Thunder in the Parkland hits the track at the Yorkton Exhibition grounds Friday and Saturday.

“Gates open at four both days,” said Ron Hanishewsky manager of the YEA.

The action starts at five, when the vintage pullers start.

“The regular pulling starts at 6:15," said Hanishewsky.

Fans should be in for full shows both days as entries for the event look good.

“We’re expecting maybe 50-plus pullers,” said Hanishewsky, adding another 15-20 vintage pullers are anticipated as well.

Among the pullers will be a couple of local favourites in Larry Hilworth and Rick Bilous.

Tickets for both days will be available at the gates.
