The pull off , hilarious what a engineering job these guys/girls did and driving them.. great show.. thanks.. we went to one at quamabatook in Australia.. plum crazy had 4 blown big block chevy engines.. ill always remember that..the wound up john deer one easy..
I remember watching these in the early and mid 80's with my father at Santa Fe Speedway off Rt 83 and I55 in IL. The Banter Bros had many different 7 engine setups, all big block Chevys. Those were his favorites. The sound of all those engines running wide open brings back memories and gives me goosebumps!!!
I knew nothing about this stuff when I was a kid but I used to watch it on ESPN. Now looking back I absolutely love it! These older machines they built were like Frankensteins. So f’n cool.
Oh this brings back memories of Saturday or Sunday mornings. It could be anything from monster trucks and swamp buggies, to moto cross and trophy trucks. You never knew what you could get. I always hoped for this or swamp buggies... never disappointing tho.
WOW 7 engines and you sit in the middle of them that's nuts. Heard the announcer say 30,000 dollars each motor for one of the tractors. That thing is worth more than a house.
I have seen the FOX run the 6-engine setup with the outboard seat, and also seen this chassis converted to running seven engines as the "Bandit" with the driver back at the normal position. However, this is the first time EVER I have seen the FOX not only running seven engines, but seeing Dave sitting smack-dab in front of the seventh with numbers five and six on either side.
I thought I saw of all of the Banter tractors but not this one either . Dave said one time that as soon as he moved from between those rear wheels the tractor never did that well. Take care
@@dandunham7351 Ya me too... The last time I saw them was at Inwood Ontario Canada. In fact I had the luck of sitting and having breakfast with Dave....He was very humble and genuine . He did most of the talking ....mainly because I was tongue tied. LOL. He was my hero of pulling back than. Take care

That dude must have strong legs to support those balls! Sitting directly in front of an engine and 6 in front of him!

I'm pretty sure the transmission/gearbox arrangement that brings all the power together operates on principles of magic 😂
I completely forgot about these multi-engine and jet powered monsters. This was a great flashback, great vid.
I wish I grew up in those days... today's world is not near as good..

Thanks for the video! A lot of names I haven't heard in a while and a bunch of cool tractors!
These old ones are VERY COOL 👍

Wow. Different times back then. Dude sitting right on top of the turbine engines, no roll cage at all haha
@20:13 What a fine '80's specimen of a man in the background. Where the hell did he think he was!

I've seen the Banters run a lot back in the day and I must say that is the first time I had seen that setup also...

Wow those are beasts!!
Wow. 7 engines on one of them.
I live near Kalamazoo MI E.J Potter used to Dominate until the Banner Brothers came in with their 5 engine Chevies that was in the early 1980's
I just CANNOT believe how these were ran with out a roll cage !!! lmao....
Awesome eeeeeeeee
Being between 2 turbines is crazy lol
wow. these things are beasty
Pure awesome
last thing i watch before moving to FL
No roll cages. That engine right behind him. Apparently he’s never been on fire.
That is metal stress
Saw Art pull for the last time in Bowling Green.
Good times
Imagine sitting beside an engine as it throws a rod.....
We went to one back east
When will you broadcast to another championship match where you have multiple tractors with 6 and 7 engines
Roll cages?
Why not just have another engine?
The fox only had 7 x. V 8 engines. .???
The days before roll cages.
WHOOAA!!!!
The previous vid I watched had a truck with 4 back wheels just about sled out of stadium.
This shit is ridiculous lol dude is surrounded by engines
