Wow! I take it that they trying to see who can plow a hectare the fastest? I wonder how much longer his plow's rear wheel will hold before it snaps?

I'm in for a break from plowing corn stocks. My ride is a lot smoother and a lot more boring.

I'm curious if that's an all original plow, I don't think so. I can't imagine that a normal plow won't broke.

Hard to tell, but is the plow deep enough in the ground?
Hey dad, I'm done plowing the field....what do you mean it's only been 10 minutes!

Two of three things will happen.
1. The tractor engine explodes.
2. The plow pulls in two.
3. Dad makes sure you can't sit for a week after you tell him.
Because of those reasons dad was the one who pulled the 2000 monoframe plow in two and I was so glad it wasn't me!

It gives me an idea for next year when my dad will held a plowday. I can pick up the plow to my XT that my dad normal use with the WD45.
I'm not sure if there will be pictures and a film of that. LOL

Might breaks some parts, possibly turn one of those old Blue machines over.....
But, they will not have to worry about skeeters for a while! WOW that is some fast plowing. Had to get back to the pub for another round of pints.

Scary !!! Gives real farmers a bad rap ! Obviously, diesel is REAL cheap in Finland, skys are grey due to unburnt fuel and that guys son will never drive the tractor/plow setup as it'll be D.O.A.(dead on axles) after a couple more 'runs'.
Can you imagine hitting a big old tree root at that speed ? Probably launch him out the windshield , then tractor would run over him.....yeesh....
I just don't get it...

Looks like pure stupidity in action to me, but so do other things people over there do to machinery for fun. (yes I am an equipment romantic)
Did you notice the next tractor over and the genious operator clutching it, letting it rev up and dumping it over and over again? ,,,good grief.

First thing I thought of was comparing it to some of our tractor pulls ..?are they any more sane? I am not talking about the old fashioned slow pull but those other pulls. They too tear up tractors, if that is what you call them.

I'm with you Eric(smuggler)! Has to be a competition of some sort. Actually looks fun as hell! Nothing I would do to a working tractor, but just like pulling tractors, built for the purpose! He definitely had that 9700 tweaked to my liking! The next Ford over had some serious turbo spooling issues, or timing out of whack! I didn't feel in danger at all! LOL! Ed
