Your place for power

Tractor Pull was introduced to Fieldays in 1975. From its humble beginnings of small horsepower, manual gear boxes, two-wheel drive and mechanical problems, we fast-forward to an era where we see four-wheel drive, computerised tractors, and engines up to 260 horsepower.

It’s as gritty, hilarious, and intense as you would expect!

What are you watching?

Tractor Pulling is a test of power, traction, and driver skill. Competitors attempt to pull a specially designed sled as far as possible down the track. As the sled moves, it becomes progressively harder to pull, creating an exciting challenge for both machine and driver.

Two competitions run side-by-side:

Weight Transfer Competition

Single tractor on the centre lane of the course

The pure power challenge!

All tractors pull the same sled. As the sled moves, weight transfers forward, increasing resistance and making the pull more difficult.

The goal: Pull the sled farther than anyone else.

This competition rewards:

Engine power
Traction
Weight balance
Driver skill

In simple terms:

"Who can pull the heaviest load the furthest?"

Weight Adjusted Competition

Two tractors competing together in the outside lanes

The power-to-weight challenge!

Not all tractors are the same size or horsepower. To make competition fair, the load is adjusted based on the tractor's weight or class.

This allows smaller tractors to compete on a level playing field with larger machines.

The goal: Achieve the best performance relative to the tractor's size and weight.

In simple terms:

"Who can perform the best for their size"

What Should You Look For?

How smoothly the tractor starts the pull
The engine sound as the load increases
The front wheels lifting slightly under power
The driver maintaining momentum down the track
The final distance achieved

One Last Thing…

Whether you're watching a vintage farm tractor, a modified pulling machine, or a modern competition tractor, every competitor is trying to find the perfect combination of power, balance, traction, and skill to achieve the longest pull of the day.

Sit back, enjoy the noise, feel the power, and cheer on your favourites!
