Yesterday I was flipping through the channels and seen yet another redneck sport. Tractor Pull... They have tractors souped up with 4 engines and more hp than I can count, with tons of forced induction... anyone ever seen them??

That seems like the most stupidform of motorsport there is.

Just like trailer races and schoolbus races.

Tractor pulls actually compete for load vs distance. They get a specified job done.

Monster trucks are the ultimate dumbass form of motorsport(sic). A 2.0L VW desert buggy could smoke those 10,000 lb. turkeys over (pre-smashed) cars. The money they spent could put you in the qualifying lineup at Indy.

I miss mudbogging. A blown AWD vehicle traversing 160 feet of quagmire from a standing start in under 2 seconds is applied technology. It gets my respect.

Tractor pulling is pretty boring to watch. It's a masculine thing. See, the thing I love about rednecks is that they have no problem expressing their masculinity. They drive huge pickups, shoot stuff and eat meat. Of course, they're also annoying, they smell, they inbreed, they're racist and they're not very smart. Those are the reasons why I hate rednecks.

Anyways, tractor pulling is just a natural evolution of men. We love pulling stuff and hauling stuff. Every single one of you can deny it up and down. "Me? Haul dirt and rocks and stuff? Never! I'd mess up my abercrombie and fitch jeans! The only thing I do with my car is road racing". Yeah, you're lying. If you had a pickup truckm the only thing you want to do with it is tow stuff or put alot of crap in the bed. I know that's what I love to do. So of course one guy is going to challenge another guy to a race to see how far and how much they can pull. Eventually, it turns into something spectacular and "organized".

Plus, all those tractor pulling vehicles, be it desiel or what not, destroy the enviroment. And what does destroying the envrioment do? Piss off hippies. It makes them cry. I live on the tears of hippies.

Ya I think I might have seen it too, was it on SpikeTV ?
Cause last weekend I saw a thing on Spike, and it was "Figure-8" school bus racing...guy named "FordZilla" won it, had 2 teeth, mullet...out in the Ozarks, I assume.
