the mishaps of the 2022 tractor pulling and truck pulling season as filmed by Built Diesel Mafia. #tractor #tractorpull #tractorpulling #tractorpullfails #tractorpullmishaps #tractorpullcarnage
Most of these engines are alcohol fueled so really just water alone is enough to dilute the alcohol. Also the aresol can extinguisher works my suppressing the oxygen levels thus killing the fire
In some of the clips there were people in fire-protective gear carrying much larger extinguishers. However, someone with a tiny extinguisher will be able to run over there much faster and spray it where needed more easily. The better protected & better equipped people were needed to put out the more stubborn fires, but the small extinguishers usually seemed to do the job.
Most of these run on alcohol which is diluted by water? A great many of these vehicles are powered by jet fuel, kerosene, Diesel and gasoline. All of the vehicles have petroleum-based lubricants, many plastic and foam components of course the obvious rubber tires. There should be at least one trained firefighter in a fire suit with real fire extinguishers. My suggestion would be 10 lb ABC dry chemical and two and a half gallon AFFF water extinguishers at each side of the track at the Midway point
Heh. If I've learned one thing from these videos, it's "hope your rig doesn't catch fire", cuz the safety crews are slow as winter molasses and those itty-bitty extinguishers are not effective if the whole engine goes up!
The announcer on that first had me 💀😂 “Got a little leak on the bottom there”, and by a “little” leak, he meant any and all fluids, and the entire bottom half of the engine. Oh, and it’s all on fire 🔥😑
"So, what do you do on the weekends when you aren't farming?" "I'm really in to building monster tractors for the tractor pulls." "So, you piss away all your earnings when the motor explodes?" "Uh, yeah, pretty much."
@@CheeseMiser Or else?? 😂 It was a joke I actually know farmers who use to complain about not making any money and just recently sold some of there land and they only got 10 million! Tough being broke what a shame.
@@user-li6lw6fc4v кто дальше протащит сани. По мере движения, груз на санях переезжает на перед саней, что увеличивает сопротивление . а горят потому что движки не выдерживают
It’s always amazed me how those mini-mods jump around so much! It seems like the two enormous testicles it takes to strap into one would really keep it weighted down.
Saw a tire explode knocked the driver out cold and missed everyone in the stands still flew to the other end of the track. They don't allow mini rod's around here anymore but I liked them.
@@stupidhead9117 It is alarming that people with such a level of stupidity exist on this planet and not one person shouted STOP. The only possible treatment for such had bangers would be a lobotomy. Not too long ago lobotomy operations were routinely carried out on psychiatric patients who were not nearly as bad as those .
It takes a special kind of nutjob to have a blown alky strapped to what is a bit more than a reinforced go-kart frame. Shit goes sideways in a real hurry with those lil buggers.
I don't understand why you never see anything bigger than a hand held puny little fire extinguisher at these events. There is enough oil and fuel in those engines to totally engulf a tractor and driver in a matter of seconds. If I am on fire don't piss on me dump a whole ocean on me...
Every quarter-mile race track I've been to has a fire crew that's on scene within seconds, with a full-size foam cannon if needed. If I was sitting on a chair on top of a methanol fire I would be pissed if a pair of rodeo clowns showed up with aerosol cans of water
As former Pro Stock drag racer, I'm no stranger to front wheels in the air so I gotta ask... Why do so many of these drivers insist on cranking their wheels either left or right (perfect example at 6:06) as soon as they come up? It's pretty much a one way ticket to a wreck.
Those single engine funny car looking rigs ( sorry don't know the exact class) sure shake you up. I think I'd be padding the heck out of the roll cage.
Saw my first tractor pull competition this past weekend at a local fall fair. Didn't have anything like the races in this video happen but it was still pretty cool to watch. It ran from noon to 7pm and I saw "run what your brung" trucks, tractors, modified trucks, super modified trucks, and more. Lots of diesel burning, dust churning and fans cheering.
We should send videos of tractor pulls and monster trucks to every other nation on earth. "Just in case you got the idea in your head that you might want to fuck with us, here's what we build when we're bored. Think of what we could build if we were focused and mad."
" Don't worry folks, we have a great safety crew, they are going to be on it pretty soon". Eventually some dudes saunter in from different angles and give it a free sprays. Apparently from their personal extinguishers by the tiny shots. And why do the rigs with 3-5 engines stacked on it always have the tiniest, weakest front axles, tires and frames they could possibly come up with?
I really enjoyed this video but some competitors aren’t wearing complete safety really making it dangerous by the way the mini fire extinguishers worked, very fast and easy to use…
0:36, a painted stripe or colored tape on the steering wheel to designate a straight wheel position is cheap insurance against fails like that. 6:10 too, lol. I'm probably not finished yet.
So fire ex the size I gave my mom for a kitchen grease fire? A@17 minute gal drops a decent size one. Then can’t figure where to use it? If I was ever stupid enough to do this. I HOPE my drive shaft breaks fast. Hundreds, couple days max, vs months to rebuild engine, transmission, transfer case….
