The George H.W. Bush Elementary second grade class recently chose topics relating to mathematics, for a class project assignment. Lane Duncan presented mathematical techniques used on his 'Texas T-Rex' pulling tractor, used in LSGTPA tractor pulling competition. Calculations are used in determining pulley and belt sizing for clutch adjustments, front to rear weight ratios, hitch height and angle adjustments, and more. The students were presented with examples of mathematics, used routinely in driving and maintaining the tractor.
