In the Heroes Pull, each team pulls two different Hero’s vehicles, a Lenco Bear and a fire truck. Each vehicle weighs approximately 38,000 lbs. The vehicles are pulled individually for time. The two times are combined and the team with the quickest combined time wins. There is an optional third pull, in which each team may compete using the least number of people to pull the vehicle for the fastest time.
