Rain and cold didn’t deter fans from the pull of Quamby

Recent stories

Despite the rain and arctic conditions, Tractor Pull enthusiasts headed to the birthplace of Tractor Pulling in Australia, Quambatook, for the Annual Easter Tractor Pull. With two lanes available at Quambatook, a mini sled was held on one side for smaller vehicles, while the other hosted the executioner sled for the larger vehicles. 

Spectators had the opportunity to see both lanes on specifically built spectator banks with front row folding seats to experience raw horsepower sound, glowing metal and dirt flying as competitors tried to pull specially designed sleds the furthest, with 80 metres being constantly measured. The Quambatook Tractor Pull is held once a year during Easter.
