I'll take your Ford-powered Massey Harris and raise you one... This is a local puller here in western Pa. The motor is a 504inch big block Ford, with lots of compression (15:1) and cam. Kinda weird to hear this sound coming from an old antique tractor

Check out the safety equipment !
We used to drag race in super stock in a tee shirt, shorts and tennis shoes-just wore a open faced helmet.

They seem to have a speed limit of 12 MPH. One class at my local tractor pull limits tractors to 2500 RPM. It pretty boring.

Thought that tractor looked familiar. I have watched it run a handfull of times.
