Somebody help me out at 1:13 ,,, the truck that has the turbo sticking through the grill ... At the very end it looks like they filled up with ice or condensation ... Somebody comment and tell me ,,, what's going on thanks ... David ...
No I'm wrong if you look real close it looks like something they've got that flips up there to keep dirt from getting in and I've never seen anything like that somebody help me out please !!!
Charles Russell I can understand. Probably a little frustrating for fans watching too...well unless you are up high enough in the stands I suppose. I love watching truck and tractor pulls especially in person. Videos never do the actual sound justice. Great videos regardless. Thanks for capturing the action for us fans.
No problem, and I have actually heard fans complain about too much track equipment blocking the track. I understand trying to get the show done in a reasonable amount of time, however, the speed vs quality debate does come up. Pulls are always better in person, I totally agree! The sights, the sounds, the smells, feeling the power.. it's just an awesome experience. Glad you enjoy my videos! Lots more to come :)
The most common reason is to reduce heat in the engines. These engines run very hot, and by shutting them off after a pass, it allows the cooling process to begin as soon as possible.
Interesting. I thought it would be wiser to let it run for a moment after a hot run to keep the (relatively) cool oil and water circulating to spread the heat and dissipate through the coolers. Especially with those huge red hot glowing turbos the oil might cook and cause clogging in the lines if it's left sitting in the hottest part. But i guess the professionals know best, i'm just an armchair mechanic who likes to speculate :D
Mikael - Also note (esp. on the mini rods, since it"s the easiest to see) the lack of a radiator, so no coolant running through the engine. Some of the semis you can also see the engine right through the grille - again, no radiator.
That makes sense. I guess i just assumed they have their radiators out of sight behind the cab to save space and shield them because you very rarely see the rear of the vehicles.
The sled is set differently for each class of pulling vehicles. They added weights and changed gears in the sled for the Semi class. If the sled had the same weight and gear for the Semis as they do the Trucks.. we'd have Semis pulling off the track and into the pit area haha.
MMMM,cuanto tardan en ponerse al maximo regimen los motores,pero creo que deben tener un segundo inyector por cilindro cuando el turbo esta a tope,por eso la cantidad enorme de humo negro,que lamentablemente es donde mas potencia entrega.
Hey tdbsnr, people who enjoy this are the one's that understand how much engineering and hard work goes into these machines. Ever hear of R&D,? Yeah, research and development. You do like to eat right? Just how do you suppose all that food gets to your table? Farmers, tractors, trucks and diesel fuel, that's how. And no, I'm not a farmer but I appreciate them just the same.
Sure, I appreciate all that hard work & engineering skills, but R&D? Perhaps. More like the boys havin' fun, burning off profits to reduce their tax bills. Now we're talking.
what a waste of good trucks. Of course the pick-ups are no big deal, but I hated to see that old Dodge and nice Peterbuilt's. plenty of work still left for them to do
Fabulous Video coverage, Thank-You for being at the occasion!
Thanks for the great stuff you guys do for us thanks again
Happy new year 2019
Awesome video! Skipping all the stuff no one cares about
I was working at Yoders Gas Station on M-50 doing some cleaning and I could hear the engines.
Great action packed video!
That Optimus prime Mack semi really tried to do a wheelie and he kinda pulled it off and that dodge semi did a good wheelie to be honest
Nicely Edited Video!
Love it
I like it,it cool.
Smoke up, smoke down! Lol [Brazil]
Brenda sure had a huge explosion at the pulls in Ellsworth Wisconsin 2019
that green 2nd gen runs
11:30 Anyone else cheer at there tv when the camera guy finally moved to the other side lol
The greenies must love it hehehehe
Got to love modified mini's. lol Rattle the crap out of you.
1:49 Dodge made full size trucks? Hecc?
I loved those Rigs very cool but also those mini rods very cute the power they produce epic
But why all that farm equipment it’s just distracting
Somebody help me out at 1:13 ,,, the truck that has the turbo sticking through the grill ... At the very end it looks like they filled up with ice or condensation ... Somebody comment and tell me ,,, what's going on thanks ... David ...
I got a good look at it that time ,,, it was the fuel vapor smoke ... When the turbos choked out ...
No I'm wrong if you look real close it looks like something they've got that flips up there to keep dirt from getting in and I've never seen anything like that somebody help me out please !!!
Those are a couple of metal covers that slip in to snuff out the air flow to the turbos. I saw this truck up close in the pits before the show.
Thanks a lot ... It was messing with me ... I love it ,,, real cool ... The techs ,,, always the good stuff ... D
Too bad some of the pulls were not filmed from a better perspective. All the equipment and folks blocking some of the action annoying.
This happens every time there is a double track. It gets frustrating for us video people too.

Cool
✌️💀
Not sure what the drivers hope to achieve by steering.
15:20 storm detected and rain!!!
vas a romper el camión
Clouds of soot and carbon monoxide. Crowds of Bubbas breathing it in. Yee-ha!
I love all the heavy smoke in the air!
❤tate William 😊❤🎉
1:25 was the motor running away?
Why do they all shut down the engine immediately at the end of a pull ? Just curious !

Best answer yet ! That would explain it !

Description says tractors semi not pickups
Can someone explain what makes that trailer very difficult to pull?
1:30 did his emergency shut offs close?
I feel like his turbos might have self destruct
His turbos cavitated
This will get Greta Thunder wotsit pooing her pants... Hee hee...
This is far more entertaining than watching a bunch of soy boys making left turns all day
roguesquatcher so driving straight is better?
Why do the pickups pull better than the semis?
The sled is set differently for each class of pulling vehicles. They added weights and changed gears in the sled for the Semi class. If the sled had the same weight and gear for the Semis as they do the Trucks.. we'd have Semis pulling off the track and into the pit area haha.
Nice but too many vehicles in the WAY !
👀
Does the weight travel at the distance pace or a timed pace?
gas engines are just not the same amount of fun to watch.
1:12 Turbos or jet engines? lol
Those would be turbos ... big turbos lol
MMMM,cuanto tardan en ponerse al maximo regimen los motores,pero creo que deben tener un segundo inyector por cilindro cuando el turbo esta a tope,por eso la cantidad enorme de humo negro,que lamentablemente es donde mas potencia entrega.
Al fin un comentario en español, amigo por que es que les modifican el tubo de escapé en esa posición, alguna ventaja tal vez?
Where is ecology?
What the hell is a Semi ?
its a truck
what no trees to put in front of the cameras
Greta Thunberg favorit show 😂
Jeez! Is life that boring in Michigan that people find this exciting?!
No more so than every other state in the Union and Germany, Poland, The Nederlands, and many other countries. So, nothing special about Michigan.
Beats the hell out of jock strap sports.
Simplicity W: Damn straight.

Шовиробете дурнь
Se ve lindo pero que hermosa contaminación, ¿no?
Only sport where literally none of the fans give a shit
Stupid way to increase polution!!!!!
It’s just for fun! It may pollute the air but I don’t care
what a waste of good trucks. Of course the pick-ups are no big deal, but I hated to see that old Dodge and nice Peterbuilt's. plenty of work still left for them to do
ToddtheWadd Well by the looks of it they are still working and pulling weight
not all are diesel........its a tractor pull......terrible title
Watson Diesel was a primary sponsor for this event, that's why it's titled as such. Thanks for watching!
Just shows the yanks don't give a toss about global warming
David Henshaw Global warming is a bullshit.
Definitely applies to me. I give nay fuck.
It’s just fun! I don’t care if it pumps out heavy smoke and pollutes the air! We’re humans we pollute all the time it’s fine!
