About Larry:
Larry K.
Peterson, 48, is from Baldwin, WI. Larry
owns Profab Machine,
Inc., which is located in Baldwin,
WI. Profab Machine offers transfer
cases,
transmissions and driveline parts for
truck and tractor pulling,
as well
as monster trucks. All of the products offered were designed
by Larry
himself. He started the business in 1986, and the business
has grown
tremendously over the years. Larry got himself in this
business
because he was a puller and did not like what was available
for parts
at the time. He started to design his own parts and that is
where the
business originated. Growing up on a farm, he always thought
he would
be a farmer, until he got the bug to start building his own pulling
parts.
Larry pulls on the Grand National circuit, which enables him to
“test
and tune” his own product line. This in turn puts him in a position
where he
is able to show and prove his products to potential customers.
As far
as retirement, there are no plans at this time. During the off season,
Larry enjoys
bowling. He is on a Monday and a Wednesday night league.
In September
of 2006, Larry bowled an 822, which is the highest game ever
at Bol’s
Lanes in Baldwin, WI. He also enjoys riding his new Harley
Davidson
Wide Glide whenever time permits. Larry has four children.
April, Aaron and Derek are now out in the world on their own. April
has
just been
accepted to the university hospital in Madison, WI for her
residency. She will be an anesthiologist. The youngest,
Daniel, is a senior
in high
school and will graduate this May. Daniel is an avid sports
player
and Larry spends a fair amount of time in the evenings and
weekends
attending football games and wrestling matches.
