Here is how the multiple engines work. It is called a planetary. And like planets, the rotate at a specific ratio to power the sun gear which drives the rear end. Some math if you are so inclined: science.howstuffworks.com/transport/engines-equipment/gear7.htm
This I understand. But twin engine dragsters another thing. Seems like it still only makes the speed of one engine to me. All they get would be more power
Dang! Had no idea man. Thanks for the info!!
Thank you always wondered
Blade Runner No shit? You mean it’s about more power? Of course it’s about more power. Speed can be achieved thru gearing.
"how many engines do you want on your tractor" "yes"
team: ho much power can you get me?
engineer: how much fuel do you have?
team: yes
engineer: then yes
Lmao. "Yes"
All of them!
How many hp???
« Yes all »
I never cease to be amazed at the ingenuity of human beings! These amazing pulling machines, monster trucks, high performance race cars, just incredible stuff! The way we went from the first powered flight of the Wright brothers to walking on the moon within a lifetime, and in my time, black and white TV to Smart phones. I wish I could live another hundred years to see what we come up with next!
Whatever you want to do in life, there is always a better, stronger, faster, more intelligent way of doing things that no one has thought of yet. And you never know, it might work better, and it might not. And I hear you on the hundred years, but at 42, I wish for another 42 and I am good. I have lived a tremendous life already. I have done just about everything I set out to do in life and have witnessed about everything I care to as well. WW #oldmanthoughts
Jim Lyons out of Louisville, Ky. Pulled a modified 4x4 with the engine it side ways and had a modifiex 2- wheel drive the same way. They were named Stitches Ten/Ken. Both great pull truck. Owner was Alfred Turner out of Gamaliel, Ky.
dude it blows my mind
Cat Man I agree with you I’m only 21 years as of 3/26/2020 and I’m excited with we we came up with so far I hope I can live to be 100 and see what we can come up with next if only I could live to see more...what will I miss? Unfortunately I will never know for sure atleast I can appreciate how this millennium starts out this is my lifetime and my era(I wish we had fully fledged spaceships)
From the horse and carriage to this
Can't imagine how difficult it must be tuning a tractor with 4 or even 5 engines? It's hard enough to get one to run right let alone 5 in concert?
Planet gear and shafts go to each engine. SCS makes a hear box that takes all the planet gears and spin the sun gear connected to the rear drive shaft. The genius is in the gear box. The real struggle is keeping the engines firing on all cylinders!

I got 7 cars and 13 Trucks that I have built , timed and tuned ,
You are right about a concert , it's music to my hears ,
One screams to 11,000rpm before the valves start to float
Then there’s that dude with 7 supercharged engines. Good luck ever getting all those to run perfectly

Like having a sled pulled by five angry grizzly bears and teaching them to cooperate.
every one of these machines is a marvel, a triumph of engineering and a LOT of money. Amazing.
"ok time to write a paper..."
ten minutes later....
I seriously had no idea that this was a thing until just now. this is awesome.
Ryan, we cover a lot from little street trucks to 13,000HP beast like these. We have cameras, we film stuff, and we love doing it.
the man be like when cops pull over he be like''sir its stock'' XD
When these engines open up, the space-time continuum is warped.
The sound that make soyboys cry!
At 4:00 I heard a space ship😅😂🤣😅😂🤣
Is that a jet powered?
@@cecbricknjii4107 yes
Nah def a jet
The craziest rig I've ever seen
I really enjoy watching your videos which is very rewarding for my work
Loved this VIDEO!!! NO COMMENTATORS RUNNING THIER MOUTHS THE WHOLE TIME!! AWESOME!!!!!!
The judge is my favorite. That sound just before launch is mesmerizing
Yeah, I was impressed. Don Deane and Plumber's Nightmare is equally awesome. But the Judge is super clean in terms of Turbine Shields and Fenders. Just looks awesome!
Thanks!
Same. I was really dissapointed by the pull but when I saw it on the screen i was like "Oooooohhh turrrrrrbinessssss!!!" Always love seeing those and the big Allison tractors.
@@JudgePullingTeam Damn guys, you built a triple jet powered tractor and TH-cam just hid the videos away from anyone, damn the algorithm is cruel.
Just checked some videos and took your thumbs up virginity on them there!
1:45 torque twist the chassis, amazing.
Horsepower horsepower horsepower the sound of music to my ears I love your videos
I like watching the video and play it surround sound
Like being there.
Game of torque.
best sound in the world, screaming blown hemis!
Very nice how the leader/and those that follow him are on the screen. Thank you !!
Some people don't like them. Wish I still did my Live Show though. Maybe soon.
During this pandemic I have discovered a lot of cool stuff I didn't know existed like this one lol
Where are you from?
Back again for the great video thanks again guys
this event was sadly lacking in the diesel department ... the triple turbine thing made up for it though
They have other classes
Hemi Fever! Nice to see the guy w/the turbines in there. The exotic stuff is always cool to watch.
In America we don’t ask “why?”

@@Jordan-ec5qj and we say “how to do” then “do the how”
Thank you to the channel for answering all my questions about these odd beasts in the comments section, we don’t have a lot of large equipment in the mountains so these are an anomaly to me.
I ask a lot of questions to pullers all the time. Now, I have heard so much over the years, I repeat what I have previously heard. If I don't know something, I will ask them. I will also have pullers with known YT accounts login and answer as well. With knowledge, we can make sense of most things in the world.
5 or 6 engines on one chassis. Incredible sound and power. Its all so appealing. This is why I am pro life. Look what God can do in people. Life is GREAT in Jesus name!!!
Haha. Idiot.

Did anyone notice the tractor named "for sale" had parts falling off of it. 😂
6:13
Everyone notice it
I'm a huge Truck and Tractor Pulling fan. Modified Tractor is so loud it made me cry one time now if I see a truck and tractor pulling event I'm going to wear earplugs.
That’s right. Certain classes require earplugs if your ears aren't used to it. Diesel engines are okay to the naked ear. But the modifieds, minis, national and big block truck classes, I can’t hardly hear over the engine.
@@WWPTV and they'll be ringing 20 years from now. Protect them. I can still here the Fiat-Allis 16B and havent seen her in years..

I would love to see one of these tractors working the field 🥰
"South forty's plowed"
"But you were only out there for an hour"
Imagine the fuel costs lol
Yeah these things run on alcohol so that would definitely cost you a lot
Finally a video that didn’t clickbate
I have heard a lot of click bate comments on this and several other videos. Funny you said otherwise. Thank you.
I'm a huge fan of modified tractors they are awesome and loud. My favorite tractor was dollar devil driven by Mr dollar devil himself Pat freels he was awesome on his tractor he had 6 engines that tractor could haul butt. I miss him havin dollar devil and he also had a four wheel drive truck named Cheers it was a cool truck i liked it too but I love dollar devil more. I wish I could see a interview done with Pat freels and army Armstrong as they would relive the old TNT pulling series days and today's pulling series givin each other's opinion on the TNT pulling series and today's pulling series. #godollardevil
Its sill the Best video out there thanks for taking the time for us
How do they deal with all the dirt entering the engines? I didn't see any filters
Back again for the great stuff guys
Thanks guys for the great video upload
Back again for the great show
I love tractor pulls.....because they make tree huggers cry. 😢
I love how the audiences cheer when they blow up. It is honest. At NASCAR. every one acts horrified when the shit hits the fan, but they come to the races to see the crashes. Not Honest. The guys that build these things and compete are wrenching brothers that dig fixing stuff and are into the power. They don't have to kill themselves and others. to get where they want to go. I think I'd rather be friends with these guys than the NASCAR DUDES. I DIG YOU GUYS RICKY BOBY WAS THE GREATEST. But enjoy it more than nascar is all i'm sayin. you all are cool, even the rc guys.
The reaction surely has a lot to do with the risk to the driver. When a tractor blows an engine it's less likely that the driver is injured or dead. With NASCAR losing guys like Earnhardt Sr to what really seemed like a fairly tame crash, people assume the worst until they really know the driver is ok.
I saw that crash on live t.v. Nascar died that day i think. R.I. P. Dale, all my respect.
Good to see someone’s out here from Ohio I live in Ohio I don’t know people that do this but OK
I'm sure I'm not the only one who would love to see one of these working a field with a haybaler on the back.... 😀
Yeah, that's a thing. We have asked pullers to get us video doing stuff like that many times. A lot of times it is just a moment, not trying to get on AFV TV or WWPTV you know.
Sorta like a high speed chafe ya mean!! lol
Did the primary buffer panel just fall off?
Whats the white smoke coming from hoses under the alcohol engines?? Some kind of overflow setup or?
Like a waste gate to allow excess liquids out from the engine.
Vordan er en sånn med sliks og dragstrip?
i may be ignorant but what is the purpose of the machine behind the tractor?
the dude in the back trailer is like the mom stopping the kid from argueing with his friend
its a weight transfer sled
Blown v8s, best sound in the world
Has there ever been an issue with dirt ingestion from the rear tyres flinging it to the front of the tractor?
Yes. The track even though you can't see it, is misted to keep the dust down but it still happens. Most of these motors have superchargers that close their intakes prior to ingestion. For the Turbine engines, it is imperative that they cover the turbine no small debris can be allowed to get into it. They used wedding veils in the past to protect them.
2 from sota in top 10! Go bret!
And kids this is what North Carolina is all about
I wonder how much dirt those blowers ingest ...especially at the end of the run where dirt is being flung over the fenders
@@nealhess6770 he talking about dirt being flung up and the engine swallow it
Suggestion. First off, love the videos!! I've been looking for some full-pull compilations and I thought I'd see some here , no such luck ?????
You want like a best of full pull runs? Different classes and such?
What size are those engine blocks are!?

Gretl hat so einen
For those of us mechanically challenged..... I wish you would have told the type of engine, cubic inch and approximate horse power? I don't know by looking at an engine that it is a "blown Hemi"
I am right there with you on this one. People can tell by the shape of the valve covers. I forget what they look like but I can easily Google and see what they should look like and then shape compare. Now that I am underemployed, maybe I do more of that kind of stuff, but it has to be worth the time involved in editing, voicing over, and all the things that go along with that. If this thing ever becomes a TV show then that would be expected.
Most are 526 Hemi's in the 2500-3000 HP range..
Brett Burg Pulled a 361.765 but his pull wasn't listed later. What happend? A sled malfunction?
Sled reset.
Что за безумие крутящего момента? Вот это монстры!!!
This is what I call a trackster😎
So exactly how do they determine how fast the weight on the sled is supposed to move forward?
The weight is driven by the wheels of the sled, so its position depends on how far the sled has traveled.
There is a transmission in the driveline, so they can make the box slower or faster, depending on the class that is hooked to the sled. They can also add/remove weight in the box and have some more "tricks" to stop the tractors.
There is a very nice 2 hour "behind the scenes" series on Landpower tv, if you want to know more how this all functions:
landpowertv.com/programs/part-1-110c95?categoryId=89409 &
landpowertv.com/programs/part-2-5d8769?categoryId=89409
They could benefit from different tires. Or is that not allowed?
Thanks 😮
great video as always. not that it is a big deal but brad benedict is from Marion Ohio.
It was right on the ntpapull.com results page. It wasn't in my spreadsheet I use to sort pullers. My bad! Thanks for the good words!
can someone explain why the tractors seem to struggle when they are all full throttle? they accelerate fine from the stop, but can not continue at full throttle.
The weight load. And on several of these, they lose a motor.
Damn you can see the chassis bending on some of those pulls
What factor is stopping them from pulling it forever? Does the sand get deeper or something?
4:50 the trailer has pushes something to the ground see , which dig into the ground and collects dirt
4:45
@@cryptoshark7147 Oh yeah, you're right. I guess the winner is the person who can overcome that brake for the furthest distance?
@@nitro2199 yes, they start applying brake after certain distance
Kind of. Is is drag weight not a brake per se. The weight compounds so it may start out rolling weight of 40,000LBs by the 200-250 foot mark it becomes close to double that 80,000LBs of drag weight. That is why momentum is the key to this motorsport.
Indonesia🇮🇩👍👍👍
What's hanging off the bottom? Breather lines?
They are hoses for the blow off valves.
why cant they go full throttle right away? the throttle valves open up so late
traction
imzackson true and also timing
Just a few Dollars represented here.
I wanna see one of these run a quarter mile
Why do the tractors stop around 300?
In Texas we use Buick Roadmaster.🤠
what is that steam venting from the bottom of the motors?
Heat vapor off the oil.
@@WWPTV And some blowby vapors.
Are the tires they're using best for dirt ??
What kind of question is that?
Im guessing they use some kind of specialty drive to combine all the engines together?
Yes. It is called a planetary. And like planets, the rotate at a specific ratio to power the sun gear which drives the rearend. Some math if you are so inclined: science.howstuffworks.com/transport/engines-equipment/gear7.htm
Scs gearbox joins the engines and shaft to the differential. The planetarys are in the wheel ends
They use crossbox to join engines to single output shaft and centrifugal clutches to even out inevitable engine power, running speed and load differences. Nice system.
Magnacharger07 SCS Gearbox turns out some impressive stuff. I’ve been in their shop a handful of times. You wouldn’t even know the darn building was a machine shop driving by it.
"put one on my car and ill be happy" - that one guy
The tractor at the beginning with four engines, I’d like to reduce him one of those power plants for a potential drag car build of my own some day
I love watching this. It's mesmerizing. These green power LEDs though, if you're there they're way too bright.
Edit: what's that smoke coming from under the vehicles? Or is it steam? Why is it not contained? I mean, one or two tractors - okay, some kind of a failure. But from nearly all of them?
LEDs are bright. One sled maker told me he order the same lights every year and they kept sending them brighter panels each year. It does play havoc with the focus of the cameras. The smoke coming from underneath is blowoff coming off the engine.
@@WWPTV Thank you for an explanation!
That smoke is the engine blowing
has there ever been a modified thing pull it till the end?
I saw one go like 380 last year. The wall is like 420 feet away. These sled operators would let them go that far.
Im a bit curious as to their wheel speed..
How come at the beginning of the video they seem to do a full pull but do a sled reset for a couple of them. They all seemed to run straight.
It wasn't straight. It was how far they went. Anything over 330, the NTPA likes to tighten up.
@@WWPTV ok gotcha
Can somebody please explain what they are doing?
They are pulling 58,000 pounds of rolling weight that doubles about about halfway down the track, then it becomes pure drag weight. Furthest one wins. Enough wins on the season and they become the Grand Champion. There are all kinds of leagues like this. Like Drag Racing with a mechanical sled tugging against them. This is the biggest fund raiser for a lot of event type places like this I'm told.
What does the thing on the back do to the tractor upfront
So the thing on the back is a mechanical sled. It weighs 32,000LBs with no weights in it. As it was on this night it had close to 50,000 total pounds in it. When it passes a certain part of the rails, the part the weight box slides up, it passes a trip that lifts the rear wheels off the ground and puts all the weight and it becomes drag weight as opposed to rolling weight. It feels at that point like nearly double that to the tractors. So the idea is the tractors try to build up as much momentum as possible. So that they carry the weight the furthest to win the show.
@@WWPTV thank you
I wanna see one of these on a drag strip with slicks and a wheelie bar
Yeah 100%nitro-methane with dual V-12's,direct-fuel-injected-heads,4-superchargers.
Nah keep the directional tread. They'll really hollah
They’re probably reaching their top speed on these runs due to the drivetrain and gearing, turning it into an effective drag racer would basically mean completely re-engineering it
Can someone explain why a tractor with 4+ motors on it can't out pull a tractor with just one motor on it.... So often I see these tractors failing to run away with a win over a single motor machine.... The explanation could be amount of weight being pulled but that info is never given in these videos.
I am working with sled operators to explain this more: How it works, what triggers the box, the rear end lift, etc. So, I have seen multiple engines blow at the same time. The best Unlimited Modifieds run 5 to 6 engines and are just hard to beat at 2500HP a piece. Turbine engines can run up to 2200HP a piece but can only get 3 tops maybe 4 of them to run and still make 8,000LBs. 5-AUTOX2500 is 10,000HP vs 4-TURBINEx2200 is 8,800HP, so 5 engine setup just makes more power. At most I have seen 3-ALLISONx2000 making roughly 6,000HP. But at 6,000LB Light Unlimited you can get a set of dual Allison aircraft engines set up right, it can be hard to beat. Light Unlimited Modifieds run 2-HEMIx2500HP making 5,000 vs 2-ALLISONx2000 making 4,000HP. So any way you go, you are making more horsepower with automotive engines but you will go through more of them as there are more parts to break.
Not so much the power really. You can only get so much traction with a specific tire. Tire speed does help but sometimes it can hurt. These guys spin out before they choke. These guys are dragsters on dirt.
People that understand don’t need an explanation; people that need an explanation won’t understand.
Blowers facing driver... In America everything is possible..
Which one are you talking about?
look at a drag boat the engine is backwards
NoIdea4Name at 7:20
Back again guys for the big hp video
I love my state
Now this is what I call, _a woodchuck truck_
Now I see why Dave Richardson's tractor was for sale.
My diesel bimmer has 400Nm, can I do this too?
I dont understand how thoes the sled work, does he slam the breaks or something?
sled has some mass, may be concret piece on top of them and after move start it move to front of the sled and press it down. Front side of the sled start to dig a ground and brake tractor very mach
@@vadym1316 oohhh ok thx
actually,...The Slide Weight is engaged by the Driver/Weight Balance in the back Tractor which is why you see a guy in the big orange Tractor behind all the Pulling Tractors, his job is to correct stirring and let the slide weight lose and Dig into the dirt at each footing marked it gets harder and harder to pull until all the Weight has been dug into the dirt and each tractor will no longer be able to pull. Unless the Tractor is geared correctly and modified strong enough each driver will not be able to complete whats called "the full pull" which is indicated at the finish line.
I understand the pulling part is fun but I would rather have 4 really fast 1/4mile cars
Same
What a pointless comment, what are you watching for
bonkey dollocks Because he can, just like the rest of us.
how many liters does this truck consume ???
+ - 20 gpm of methanol per engine
What do their numbers mean? Like, brad was at 319. 319 what?
That is the distance in feet. The puller who pulls the farthest wins. The better speed you have going down the track usually means the farther distance. If you watch the weight box it comes up to the top of the sled rails at the exact place distance wise on each hook in a given class. Thanks Brucipher!
@@WWPTV That's incredible! I wondered why the box moved like that, as well! Thanks so much for the reply!
this is what you do in Benson....nuff said
None of them seem to lack horsepower, they just loose traction. What make them different from one another?
Engine configurations is what makes them different. Also the different power plants are all trying to catch Hemispherical engines. Bret Berg and Chuck Knapp are the ones everybody is chasing. Brett makes chassis for this class and several others so he is leaving his mark in pulling. Knapp bought the Funny Little Farmall from Ken Veney one the most historic names in Drag Racing and Tractor Pulling. He changed name to Screamin D'.
The biggest thing is, they literally run what they brung. These modifieds have always had a championship consisting of many pulls across the nation. What I mean by run what you brung is. Some of these teams are out on the road for perhaps 2-3 weeks at a time. Something goes wrong with an engine, they just have to mend it up. The gear box they use to connect the 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 engines to the rear end actually allows say one engine to be creating 5000 horsepower and another engine to be only making 4200 and another to be making 5300. An engine might not be running "well", but has to stay on the tractor to maintain official qualifying status in the class.
I've seen a couple tractors run all weekend limping one engine around all weekend. Most likely needed a sleeve put in the cylinder and just didn't have time to get involved with it out on the road between pulls that weekend.
Then of course you have the rich guys of tractor pulling, just like in any sport. They just have a brand new engine assembly at the snap of their fingers. For those that don't have unlimited funds, like any sport, a 5th place finish 2 weeks in a row is better than a DNQ or DNF for a single track... On the same token, not one team is going to go a whole season without mishaps and or misfortune, so many times it all equals out. Suit up and show up....
I'd take one of them tractors and see if it would pull a 32 feet wide folding disk and 12 24 inch wide turning plows they sure as hell would make one hell of a cultivating tractor
This a good beginners tractor? My friend told me so!
Does this happen in the UK at all? Would love to see it
Here is a team to follow from the UK: facebook.com/AftermathTractorPulling/
And here is a British League: facebook.com/btpauk/
Where does the money come from for these builds? Cant be from ticket sales.
Most of the pullers in this class do not stop. They farm, they haul, the sell seed, seed insurance, they work whatever they have in front of them. And then they have extra and they build things. They competed for season prizes and fame more than anything else. So this venue has struggled in the past but it is a great venue. But just like drag racing which they are known for, the stands can appear to be thin. But with all the good food and things to look at you tend to move around. I am completely biased and eat up with this sport. But check out my other Benson videos and see what you think of the fans in the stands. If I am wrong then maybe it is my wishful thinking. I do know this show is $25/$30k per night and as such they were going to a drag racing style top 3 take home all the money for 2020 but Carona happened. Thanks for tuning in!
I'd love to have one of them in the field priming tobacco that would be one hell of a thrill and rush
Eddie Watson did you need some farm work done 😂
