Rapid tractor meeting in Upahl: 800 hp and family-friendly fun!

In bright sunshine and hundreds of enthusiastic visitors, the third tractor treck of the Pulling team Kreihnsdörp near Upahl has provided all kinds of spectacle. Last weekend, the big and small fans of the tractor Pulling gathered to celebrate a real highlight of the agricultural culture together. Tractors of the most diverse years of construction and PS classes competed against each other, whereby the fun of the robust machines was in the foreground.

The event stretched over two days and attracted numerous participants from the area and beyond. The focus was particularly on Michael Reske from the tractor smithy made of Senske. The PS professional was active at Pulling competitions worldwide and brought its impressively strong vehicle, which can come up with a proud 800 hp. This is not a normal tractor - the engine lives from a turbocharger of a diesel locomotive, and that makes it a real heavyweight among the participants. This eliminates the event from other competitions, in which not even half of the PS performance is achieved, as in the case of tractor friends Finningen, who also offered a great event with their classic cars nordkurier.de.

insight into the competition

The principle behind the tractor panel is simple, but exciting: modified vehicles pull a heavy brake car. The route covered is measured to the point where the vehicle comes to a standstill. Not only turning the PS up plays a role here, but also the technology and skill of the drivers. So a good traction is crucial - no wonder that tires can crank through or tractors can "jump" unintentionally. This was also noticeable by the tractor friends from Finningen, who have come together to enrich the competition with their older vehicles up to 70 years old [Br.de] (https://www.br.de/nachrichten/bayern/tractor-pulling-mal-andersbremswagen-mit-dem-Dem-Goldtimerind

Another highlight was the commitment of the nine -year -old Mia Lopens from Walsmühlen. She collected the spectator hearts with her small tractor, which competed with 30 hp. Mia was part of the goddin pulping team, which brought a total of eight tractors to give fans an insight into the world of tractor pulling.

Dieter Eckert, an experienced master baker from Spornitz, moderated the event and contributed to the good mood with his inviting appearance. He is a well-known face at classic car and tractor events and demonstrated his extensive knowledge and passion.

conclusion and outlook

The weekend was a complete success: from perfect weather to satisfied visitors and committed sponsors, everything was given.
