Took my little grey Ferguson tractor to the North Somerset Show today as part of the display put on by my local tractor club. The tractor pullers were there as usual - they a bonkers!
Tractor pulling is like drag racing was back in the 1970s when I became involved in a small way - the kit is home grown and inventive, you can look round the pits and all the action is smoke and thunder.
If you look at the side of the engine block of Mustang Sally you will see that it is a 38.8 litre V12 diesel (an ex-army tank engine).
I'm not sure of the engine size of the second vehicle - but it certainly put some fuel through!
