    Re: Truck Pull Carnage Video: Sled Failure Ends Badly

    I wonder what fails on the sleds. The pulls Ive been to the sleds have air brakes, with maxi chambers on at least one axle. That means the brakes should be reliable, and if the sled lost all air the brakes would lock up. Being able to kill the engine on the puller won't help much with that heavy sled pushing. The wheels on this sled appear to all be turning.
    This must be scary for the flag man, they usually are walking along with the puller. I remember when tractors had no cage at all, no helmets, just farmers sitting on the seat, getting dirt in their flat top haircuts.
