Old School Tractor Pulling

[FROSTBITE]

I have been a tractor pulling enthusiast for as long as i can remember, thought id share some of my old pulling pictures i have collected from friends and internet. Farmers dont make what they used to, so alot of these machines are a thing of the past.

I sure love a good display of torque in action! Some big bucks in some of those tractors.

The indoor pulls were loud *** hell, then they started to make them run a exhaust pipe evacuation/extractor deal, to help pull the smoke/exhaust out of the building, the alky tractors would make your eyes water really bad, jets/turbines really ruined it IMHFO, they're not the same experience as, all the big blown or turbo-ed combos... I remember going to the Cow Palace & watching them indoors, also the Alaska Anchorage Area when I was up there too...
