OK here is a race of the crawler tractors and the winner is ? 
See how many OSHA violations one might see in this video or how many different brands crawlers are racing .

That wasn't a race, it was a suicide pack! 
I am still confident of this;
I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait for the Lord;
be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Ps 27

I believe those are all part of the Cat family of Holt or Best from little 10's to big 60's.I have seen it on the Antique Cat Machinery Owners Club and other places.At ACMOC Cat made them remove it as they claimed ownership of it but that it had been illegally copied or stolen from there archives.And yes  I believe someone was killed in the making of this race,so this is one of Cats reasons to not wanting it being viewed.

I was wondering if everyone survived, particularly, the one that the building fell on at about 2:11!

The guy that got flipped off like a quarter looked ominous, could have been run over!  And just stepped back on a moving machine.
