RUNAWAY DIESEL!!! Fergus 2022

Truck and tractor pull 2022
It’s a two night video but was a ton on fun
Randy Overton had his truck the evil diesel
runway luckily has got out with no injuries

[@luckgrip252]

I actually didn't notice that these engines were put in controlled runaway for most possible power. This vid was the reason I looked at every possible variable

[@genefogarty5395]

The New Holland didn't even smoke, talk about efficiency.

[@dalehansen5050]

Great show, great mix of pullers!

[@jebucha]

Great footage, thanks for sharing!

[@TrainmanSky]

Hahaha man just the way it boggles 14:36

[@MrAvant123]

I'll bet the greens are lovin this !

[@crazylarryjr]

I bet the driver of that runaway had a few loose fillings, that looked violent

[@darylco5573]

That was like riding a bull.

[@Dmaxdiefe]

He was fine luckily a little sore the next morning he said but he was pulling the next weekend with that same truck

[@philtheninja7208]

that new holland tractor was a beast, not modify, just twin tire all around and some torque

[@TheMrDarius]

I’m sure if he really wanted to he could pull all the way across country 😂😂😂

[@TheMrDarius]

That thing was a monster

[@Dmaxdiefe]

It’s tuned up fairly good but yeah a beast

[@genefogarty5395]

@@Dmaxdiefe Not much smoke, whoever did it really knows their shit. Any idea of the owner/tuner?

[@Dmaxdiefe]

Al Gore says this is his favorite sport. lol

[@pattschetter]

On one hand, I enjoyed seeing the stock-looking dual-tired late-model New Holland T8 MFWD dragging the sled almost into the woods; but I wonder how the sled weight box was loaded, vs the semi classes / pickup classes / pulling tractor classes.

[@Dmaxdiefe]

About 30,000lbs in the sled for the trucks/ fully built pulling tractors but the big tractor had a longer chain so harder to pull and 50,000lbs+

[@pattschetter]

@@Dmaxdiefe Thanks! I figured there was something going on from the long chain, just from running calculations for the university ASABE 1/4-scale pulling tractor team I was on 20ish years ago (at a time when the competition pulls were at two different tractor weights with a horizontal chain, and the same two different tractor weights with a downward-angled chain.)

[@SunderlandVirtualFarms]

That must of been a scary ride for randy glad he was okay when a diesel engine runs away there is sadly nothing you can do

[@henrybahnweg3385]

Thats why they have a guillotine on the turbos.

[@genefogarty5395]

@@henrybahnweg3385 Sounded like he used it and it didn't close all the way. After watching again, it seems like the driver's cable failed and the one to the sled had to be used.

[@dennisrutherford6973]

Block air off it will shut down

[@Dmaxdiefe]

He couldn’t grab the guillotine because it was jerking so hard and the sled cable wasn’t working

[@eldoradoboy]

@@Dmaxdiefe did they eventually get it stopped or did it grenade finally? wow what a crazy ride

[@chrisjohnson131]

14:00 is where the action is. Only runaway. Title pic is clickbait.

[@RuralTowner]

Not exactly. Better to say just inaccurate to the title. The tractor in the thumb is present. Just not the one that goes off...

[@Viperman200221]

Thank you!

[@Dmaxdiefe]

It’s not clickbait when that’s a screenshot of a part of the video

[@eluder25rs]

@@Dmaxdiefe when you put "RUNAWAY DIESEL!!!" in all caps in the title + thumbnail and there's only one runaway that lasts 2 secs, yes, it's clickbait

@@eluder25rs 14:37 here it is dumbah smh 🤦🏾 and if you clicked the godamn description it only mentions one specifically, always talking bout something clickbait and can’t even confirm it correctly

[@bobuncle8704]

7:00 they had to finally shut him down or he’d just wind up pulling through the woods.

[@brennoncantrell5867]

It’s crazy being in a sport where you know your just torturing your engine until the day it’s done

[@ducewags]

@Brennon Cantrell That is every sport, an engine in one sport, or a persons body in a nother sport. Wash, rinse and repeat.

[@davidwarren1405]

Isn't that what athletes do to their bodies?

[@davidepool5884]

I’d like to see pulling tractor drag race. It would probably be pretty dangerous but I’m curious as to how fast they would be in a quarter mile.

[@dmeemd7787]

The modified tractors, and some of the unlimited superstock classes, things like that. They’re wheel speed is probably around 120 mph, since they use planetary’s from caterpillar and things like that.. There was a really, and I know this isn’t what you’re talking about, poorly done video, where they did a side-by-side “drag race” with two slides into tractors, but it was so dusty. It was kind of pointless… But anyway, I’m sure if you can figure some thing with three or four blown alcohol engines in the right way you can get some serious mile per hour out of it if your fuel pumps and stuff were set up, right I just feel like it would just have to be purpose built :-)

[@kutzbill]

I was told, by a driver that if the hitch breaks it's instant 130 MPH. I'm not sure if he was telling me a story, or being honest. I have seen the hitch break, and the breakaway switch will kill the engine, and the tractor gets a pretty long way before they get stopped. It would be easy to figure the speed if you know how large the tire is, and how fast it's turning.

[@stocktonterry]

Some of those sound alike an old spatin JD

[@bubbakushingtonIII]

Rough ride.

[@robintaylor-mockingeemill8223]

should have shown more of the run away .

[@richardjohnson8882]

jesus

[@joeattwell4134]

Also realized not 1 powerstroke was in this video

[@mrpotatoheadracing]

Hate the guy's monetary loss with that runaway. However, that's one less Duramax to torment the world with it's needed water pump, fuel filter, and injector repairs...

[@2500hd_idk]

But didn't the guy repaired it?

Probably would have been a good video if it had sound

[@royijams7424]

I had sound. You may of had it muted.

[@brenttully258]

Hi

[@mikehudick7074]

I'm figuring that the people in the bleachers could get about the same thrills by gathering up their beers, forming a lawn chair circle around a bucket of diesel fuel, lighting it off and watching it burn!!

[@kramnull8962]

That's why you do all your tinkering around little boys buttholes...

[@Dmaxdiefe]

Most of them are locals and are their to support the fall fair but a lot of them come to a bunch of the pulls

[@monkeybuttdevinlane]

Or they could spend their time passing judgement on people they don't know or understand in the KZbin comments because they're obviously smarter than everyone else.
