Tractor Pulling - 800hp V16 Detroit Powered International Harvester 1086 doing a Full Pull at the Southern Tractor Pull Competition at the Mayfield A&P Show in Mayfield, in the Canterbury Region of New Zealand's South Island.

This is weight transfer tractor pulling. The tractor aims to pull 80% of its weight for 100 metres, or 60% for the pre-85/old school class. As I understand it, the tractor being pulled shifts its weight on the sled from the rear to the front as it travels up the track to increase its total weight.
