NK Pullers - Bio
NK Pro-Stock was originally organized in the late 1980’s The economy and other factors later phased out the group. A few years ago many pullers started to show interest again. The pullers started again as a non-sanctioned group to see if there was any interest. The group continued to grow. When there was enough interest, the NK group was reformed into an organization under a version of the old name NK Pullers Association. NK stands for Nebraska/Kansas, which represents much of this organization’s membership from both states. However as they continue to grow there are now many members joining from Missouri also.
President Pat Davis is from Seneca, KS. Pat is no stranger to truck and tractor pulling. He piloted a 2WD pickup in the 80s named The Vigilante. Pat has also pulled antique tractors and now assists his son Jesse with his 2WD pickup, Be Aware. Pat stepped up as President of the organization in the 2024 season.
Vice President Ron Alverson is from Centralia, Kansas. Ron started in the 1970’s with a 4WD Chevy pickup. He also ran a silver 2WD that was called the Ghost Buster. He has been instrumental in the formation of NK Pullers. For the last few years he has been active promoting the NK show. Ron's son Brent will return this season with a 4WD truck named “Full Strut”. Ron served the role of President for the past 10 years; he couldn't just retire, so he stepped down into the role of Vice President for the 2024 season
Treasurer of NK is Molly Newman of Oskaloosa, KS. Molly has been around the NK Pulling family over the past eight years. She has worked behind the scenes and at the registration table. She might deny it, but she does know a thing or two about pulling as she formerly pulled antique tractors and his piloted a couple of 2WDs once or twice. In 2023 Molly stepped into the interim treasurer role and was elected to serve as Treasurer in 2024.
