and blocks) and be no longer than 13 feet (from the center of the rear
axle to the front most point of the machine). A D-ring must be welded to
the frame of the doodlebug, so that a 3/8” safety chain can be attached.
Also a chain 3 ft. in length must hang from the front of the machine; if
the chain lifts off the ground during the competition, the participant
will be disqualified. Machines must pull the sled 3 continuous feet to
