@wannasurf I imagine they use independant rear wheel braking to steer while the front wheels are airborn, controlled by the steering wheel (as well as the front wheels while driving normally)
HAHA HAHAA I used to live in the American south (Memphis, Tennessee) and I still love a good tractor pull. I think it's awesome that they've spread across the sea even though they're not really a sport. It just goes to show men are men and boys are boys the world over.
I'm quite sure this has been answered but I couldn't be bothered reading every comment.. so. WHAT THE bleedin' hell is powering that last "tractor"?? seems to be some sort of radial engine.. but from what? how many cylinders? somewhere around 42?
I think that we found what's causing global warming at 2:00 haha anyway why don't they take the trailer off and have drag races on the tractors that would be sick
this is better than porn!!! i can watch this video for hours and just find it awesome! who needs some dp girl scene if he can watch this awesome shit here??!!! ;o)
I have respect for these guys and girls who do the super modified and custom build pulls but I'm a country boy born and raised. We use our tractors to work our fields and then take them to the garage and tune them to pull for the weekend and when the pulls are over they go back to the field. I do like this style of pull but they should be qualified as something other then tractors. Great video
@xaingwu Its funny, Because people put MILLIONS AND MILLIONS hell I've even seen BILLIONS of dollars into these machines to only make it half way down the track. Atleast in drag racing or just round racing you can have fun, Hell you can bring anything you want. It don't have to be a billion and a half dollar machine. But in reality I can get a machine right now that cost 39,000 - 50,000 dollars that'll out pull biggest part of these things. Its sad. Its too competitive and expensive
And they call us rednecks in america because many of us like raw horsepower, I still cant belive they do this in many places in europe and australia too, I though american and britan were the only places they did tractor pulling.
@xfiles1952 wheelspeed is 200 to 250 km/h during a pull..you figure out the rest... But these engines are to heavy for drag racing, let alone top fuel.
These aren't tractors, they are challenges as to what is thought to be possible. It all started with a simple tractor and has progressed much like monster trucks have. When they run these tractors it inspires the crowd to think bigger than they are used to. How long until you think these are running off of some ridiculously large electric motors, maybe from a train, from say a tethered power cable or something?
Hi people. The machine at 8:00 is running a 42 cylinder radial engine that on a good day claims to be in the region of 10,000hp but with its reliability issues I doubt it ever makes that. In this video I'm pretty safe in saying somethings not quite right with it.
"What makes them stop so suddenly'? A 50,000 pound anchor! (sled) Anyone know if some of those were running radial engines? If so, what make/size/rows/cylinders? Steering w/the wheels in the air is more of just a reaction to the tractor changing directions. Doesn't do a bit of good until the front wheels touch down. internationaldave@gmail.com
@Phepheron Usually traction (or wheel slip). When the wheel has lost to much traction (gained to much wheel slip) the driver ease down on the throttle. Otherwise it will just dig a hole in the ground. When the wheel spinns to much relative to the ground the traction quickly approaches zero. So there's no point in continuing. The tractor needs to back up to release the chain. If the driver has dug a big hole underneath itself that will become more difficult.
@Ilypoop10 Most of the black clouds is water for cooling. A Pro Stock needs 3 litre water and 3 litre diesel on the 100 meters and only for 15 seconds. The black smoke is away after a minute. I think other sports are more negativ for the environment. The most machines in germany runs with methanol and this is clean power.
@joker1976mrjo yeah what a fucking sport what about they just quit doing retarted stuff with a tractor and buy a real car with a fucking ENGINE and give the money and time they spent in those shit fucking machines that are extremely good for the environment to ppl who actually want to do something with their lives but didnt get a chance to.... some ppl are retarted fucking egoists.... oh lookim bored lets fuck the world up.....
@joker1976mrjo Actually all of that black cloud is unburned diesel which is still better for the environment then the gas job llypoop10 is driving around...
@Ilypoop10 im a mechanic and most of the dark smoke from any engine gas or diesel is actually carbon a narturally occuring element that is in your body and will not harm the atmosphere or the environment... don't believe the hype, most of the smoke will fall harmlessly down to the ground within minutes of becoming airborne.
@gumby1008 No, but when you are in the air, it normally turns left or right on the backwheels, so they turns the wheel so it turns when they hit the ground again :)
