Truck and tractor pulling - also known as power pulling, is a motorsport competition, popular in many countries which requires modified truck and tractors to pull a heavy sled along a 11-metre (35 ft) wide, 100-metre (330 ft) long track, with the winner being the tractor that pulls the sled the farthest. It's one of the most powerful motorsports, due to the multi-engined modified tractor pullers.
