Rob van der Waal, The Dutch Arley Langlo of tractor pulling,

Dutch tractor pulls??? Dutch tractor pulls!!! I guess there really are rednecks everywhere.

That thing went BOOM.

the Dutch, The whole point I think is to blow it up. Not so much pull the sled. Did you hear the announcer say "European Maid" at the end of the video? this is why. The guy blows it out of the chassis, Runs over the block, Then calmly climbs out and laughs at the crank and pistons sitting in the tractor.
