big iron classic 2010 truck pull #1

[@TheBullpull]

My son and I have been trucking for many years. Love a truck pull. The first truck he rode around in was my 85 FL cab over. We both like the older stuff.

[@ryback1340]

i'm listening to this with my headphones, as far as that first truck, when it revved up, all I can say is DAYUM!!!!!!!!

[@colescott1518]

old Pete's don't die they just go sled pulling and they're awesome

[@NBSV1]

To the guy asking about the sled. They normally have wheels at the back. As the weight moves forward it loads the skid and unloads the wheels so it's harder to drag. The little wheels at the front lift the sled at the end so it's easier to pull back. Some sleds can actually drive themselves back to the start too. Hope that helps some.

[@trukguy3794]

I go to this every year I love it I only live 10 miles from here

[@petroldevo9934]

Lucky.

[@speedskiff2]

Old Petes don't die, they just go sled pulling

[@elisaromani70]

+Kydddsed_dd da ssswqrle Kenan

[@rbryanhull]

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what we call a full pull.

[@flanksteak2]

Pollution standards for Diesels in the United States are more strict than they are in Europe. In fact, they are the most strict in the world. This is just playtime. Roll the coal!

[@jackkarie5281]

Agreed. They just poison our food instead.

[@WWPTV]

That's right. If we were worried about pollution, we wouldn't do business with China. The west side of all of our mountains are worse off than the east. Stuff gets up in the jet stream and then it settles.

[@ajk8015]

This is true only on the public road systems not on drag tracks everything goes no regulation on private property

[@TransAmDan28]

At about 1:13, looks like he made some adjustment in the suspension to get better grip. Didn't know they done this. Impressive power there :)

[@imhilarious90]

u gotta love the loping of them detroit deisel cabovers!

[@KPearce57]

@sony8331 The sparks are from clutch material untill it hooks up.

[@jgmagoo1]

That old blue Freightliner FLD looked to be the most stock of the whole group. I wonder why they let him have the hitch ring so high. Being that high, it would lift the front of the sled reducing the drag and adding weight to the drivers.

[@SquirrelGrrl]

I loooved that last one! That was one sweet tractor!

[@1947Kalishnikov]

First truck see those sparks under it. Damn and those turbos

[@TheHurst63]

Love the guy in the black hat with a cig perched just so in his mouth - and a beer in the left hand. Look for him!!! Classic. But this is cool stuff.

[@jasonsinclair7861]

greasy

[@iant720]

Love them cabovers!!!!

[@brandonjimenez6280]

Ian Thompson dk

[@fairspares]

wow, first time ive watched big truck pulling , what makes the red truck at the end , looks great.

[@wa4hgj]

most likely done with air ride the biggest reason is to control how far the front end lifts

[@slimG2082]

@tractors1975 Hey that is common on air ride trucks they run a per set psi of air in the fron bags and it helps to put the weignt back on bolth rears to help put the power to the ground

[@miguelangelarandarodriguez3321]

Viva los camioneros somos gente espectacular el mundo del camión es pura adrenalina y un mundo precioso lleno de joyas por todo los sitios del mundo

[@wildcoyote34]

I love watching diesel pulls

[@RICHIE_RICH89]

Wonder the hp and torque of the rig wow

[@ScaleCarModels]

Great vid is there a website for this?

[@CodyEslinger202]

The rig at 6:00 sounds pretty sick! sitting there idling sound like shes camed up!

[@kadenlarson9992]

1:20 DID ANYONE SEE THE SPARKS?!?!?!

[@Jacobsen-ij9hn]

it was the clutch slipping

[@averagedude1986]

i think the second guy just brought his work truck to see what it could do

[@JMartinhomestead]

1:20 them sparks is the clutch???

[@Burtocd]

@TheWeirdFish I definitely wouldn't say that these engines are improperly tuned, but more so that these engines are tuned in a manner other than for casual driving. These trucks are set for one purpose only...to put down as much torque as possible while pulling the sled down the track. By tuning in such a way, the thick black smoke is inevitable.

[@hcr403]

@kenworth2011 its was the front suspension. they made it tubular. and it had to much move. and they went back to the old setup this year. kinda sad killer didnt pull much this year.

[@bigmann6374]

I could be wrong but the sparks could be an igniter for the fuel hes dumping through his exhaust to make the flames come out.

[@heavytv31]

Amazing video !!!

[@docsockem]

@CodyEslinger202 Sounds like an 8v92 Detroit. Those old two strokes make me feel all warm and fuzzy.

[@Brointman]

Got to feel a bit sorry for the guy who couldn't keep his front wheels on the ground enough to stay on the course. It feels like he really had the best truck in show.

[@gjohns316]

Brointman I agree. That detroit was screamin

[@kenworth2011]

@hcr403 yea usa east put's one on in mercer i think towards the end of pulling season i think can't say for sure

[@hcr403]

the truck i thought would have been good for year this was bad dog. but it didnt pull this year. looks like francis has to muck to work (i would in heaven if i worked there). last year i went to the buck (lancaster, pa), and this i year i went to morley, mi. i plan to make to about 8 events next year. are you from the ohio area.

[@Rage2Fire]

just curious....... how many pounds does the sled weigh????

[@DJTarga]

But why would there be sparks flying out? Isn't it a closed housing?

[@rockinrowdy13]

"Cab over Pete with a refer on,and a Jimmy haulin' logs" ;-) lol

[@richardhite1295]

Not too many people are going to get that.

[@stevenlindenschmidt4049]

Jimmy's hauling hogs. Kenworth's hauling logs.

[@TheWierdFish]

And a hood is the folding canvas roof of a car, and a trunk is a separate luggage compartment slung on the back of a vehicle, not part of the body. The words come from the corresponding parts of horse carts, which came before. The proper words (most of which are older than the USA itself) are those that we in Britain use. A bonnet is the forward bodywork, boot is the world for a luggage compartment that is a part of the bodywork. I use correct English, anything else is wrong, usually American.

[@hondabikez]

Why are their sparks under the truck at 1:20?

[@CanadianAiden2]

4:40 - What kind of a truck is that?

[@JMartinhomestead]

i was asking because i dont know lol its what makes sense to me that as the clutch is released with that much power it sparks like crazy

[@electricshockproof]

All those sparks around 1:20 Metallic clutch disc?

[@hcr403]

@kenworth2011 are you going to mercer for opening day

[@WesternStar4900SA]

I like trees that are logged and hauled with rigs like these :D

[@kizerbread]

Id guess Clessie must have a KTA.

[@sleadhead1g]

am I tripping or is that hulk Hogan in the bottom left at 1:42 ?

[@TheMordifaen]

That's a tough one! Might be though:P

[@InTheDogHouse3DPrinting]

You are trippin, that wasn't Hulk hogan.

[@arfamortis1]

the sled hitch 'floats' no load is added to the truck

[@katskratchkustumz]

what the heck were the sparks from, the clutch grabbing?

[@petroldevo9934]

Cab overs are the wicked of their time. Worked on alot of them. Could never get over the goofy, weird steering arrangement....

[@jarett2010]

@ :30, was that guy wearing an NDSCS AutoTech shirt?

[@DocRevo]

@mpwelk yup - best part of the whole video is liftoff @ 6:20!

[@evanscolossus2]

Yes Indeed! Detroit Diesel Peterbilt! Any more footage or channel with Red & Black Peterbilt?

[@TheWierdFish]

Good point. A diesel running correctly, however, still doesn't spew smoke all over the shop.

[@sony8331]

@ 6:00 the truck is a detroit diesil with dool turbos

[@sony8331]

why is there sparks coming out at the bottem of the first truck

[@Jacobsen-ij9hn]

for the second one, why was there black smoke coming out of the rear diff?

[@jenniferobarr5170]

Jacobsen1450 it's called a shawdow

[@newley406]

is that paul sr.

[@Mr424538]

anybody see sparks from the first truck ?

[@speed150mph]

ummm im pretty sure if your car is running good it should produce CO2 also... unless you have emmisions reduction reusing exhaust, but really, doesnt the EGR system in deisels do the same thing to produce CO?

[@wyretwister]

This is one bad ass truck!

[@TheStarter13]

And tell me what this razvlekuha in Pindos?

[@H.R.T.P]

Wondering if a Vovlo FH750 would be enough?

[@1112223333111]

whats the sparks under the first truck??

[@davidleonard8667]

That second truck, the blue one, has some power for a stock appearing sem!

[@NickeyMouse]

Nope, the sparks are from the clutch. The flames are from the high compression that they run in these engines.

[@Twinturbo120]

What engine does the truck @ 11:16 have?

[@MrKal222]

this is cool i love the semi truck drivers have fun

[@fussgus4453]

I hope I can make it there this weekend!!

[@btownmxer]

yeah the clutch

[@JohnnyBoy3569]

Who won?

[@Brointman]

That is interesting. What does 'ffs' mean? I thought I knew what it meant, but the meaning that I had associated with that acronym makes no sense in the context of your comment.

[@jjbawler98]

a lot of the truck puls ive been to they burn white alchol

[@petersack5074]

4:25 NOTHING , beats those COE'S of the 70's and 80's......of ANY MAKE ! kw , petes were THE BEST !

[@a65232]

When an electric/fuel cell vehicle has similar torque numbers, please let us know. : )

[@chpdironhd]

yes diesel does produce carbon dioxide, but also Sulfer dioxide and nitric oxide, when mixed with upper atmosphere moisture can produce acid rain, deisels still produce carbon monioxide, in lower amounts,

[@Twinturbo120]

Thank you very much!

[@hcr403]

@kenworth2011 thats kinda suck, maybe there still pissed about that suspension. i would love to see them get 30 plus trucks. for a serious day of pulls.

[@stosh562]

nothing like gettin the whole crowd to yell at you

[@jaysfan19]

@CodyEslinger202 I think it sounded like a Detroit

[@bloodynikka1]

i bet that blue frieghtliner wasn't modifiied

[@gregtraver]

wrong end of the track, Jack! Next time film at the other end....

[@HiiroRocker101]

...How did I get here?

[@Dissoawsomeyoudheve]

i mean, i know some cars run on LPG but, arent those pretty rare?

[@bouchee2007]

what was with the sparks

[@brainpause]

clutch engaging. You'll see it quite a bit in some classes, like the Super Stock Diesel tractors.

[@TAURON85]

OMFG! They are such beauties!

[@johnburns4283]

awesome video I mean killer

[@goropeza101]

Actual diesels have less green house gas per horsepower than their rival gas engine does, they unfortunely produce a lot more sulfur dioxide which contributes to more acid rain. Now these massive diesels that power these sled dragsters can be retuned to burn cleaner bio-diesel! I think the fans love the smoke!

[@farmboy26ful]

I am stating they are better than gas exhaust. Thats why they are used in mines. Diesel will probably be the future of automotive technology.

[@kenworth2011]

@hcr403 sure i try not to miss that pull lol

[@jgmagoo1]

Wrong! Look at the ANGLE of pull. If the chain was completely horizontal, no load would be added to the drive wheels. If the angle is upwards from the sled to the truck, the force would tend to LIFT the sled and add weight to the drive wheels. I'm surprised they didn't have a rule specification for the height (or angle) of the hitch.

[@67chevybro]

OMFG if they made a candle that smelled like deisel fumes i would buy all of them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the smell of deisel fumes.

[@farmboy26ful]

they filter out the exhaust gasses and get all the toxics out of there, i am not talking about the truck, i am talking about the raw engine, a diesel produces less carbon di than a gasser. im not talking about the cat converter.

[@monsterkong93]

Wow that last truck was rolling the coals

[@trainman071]

nothing will EVER BEAT A DETROIT DIESEL 12V71 ALL THOSE OTHERS ARE PUPS COMPARED TO A PIT BULL WHEN IT COMES TO A 2 STROKE DIESEL ENGINE!

[@memillionthdoot4436]

Detroit Diesels have easily become my favorite engines over the years.

[@leebob86]

It is from the clutch. That is called a slipper clutch.

[@bloodynikka1]

@ 6:14 the cabover looks like a realy angry dog chasing a cat and taking the house with it.

[@Bgoober181]

did anyone notice the sparks come out the bottom of the first truck

[@17Kristof]

Omg, look at the underside of his truck. Looks like hes burning up the clutch real bad. 1:20

[@McGillicutty88]

What is this a class between street legal and modified super semi class? Wannabe modified semi class?

[@kargmeister]

you got that right. both my vehicles don't have cats so the fumes are nasty to breathe in and give me a headache but as for my dads diesel, I love smelling that shit lol.
