There's no mistaking the sound of a flathead. Best V8 from Ford, ever.

Factory built one? How is that factory?

You let me know when there's a company making twin jet-powered tractors.

 

[a112]

I'm saying that the first two videos,the tractors was built at home garage probably,and this is something more serious built probably by part of factory team or serious ingeneering team.

Wait... Wasn't Art Arfons the guy who built "The Green Monster", the first Jet Turbine powered Land speed car in the late 40s?

Or is this other Art Arfons a descendant?

It may be the same one, or his son. Simply because he's in his late-50's in that video, might help you out.

Hate to break the news to you, but there's no "Factory Team" behind it. Art and his son built it. I don't have a clue as to where the idea came from, nor the money for it.

 

[a112]

If it's that way,much respect than.
I apologize.

Art's 81. So it's got to be one of his kids.

I went to a tractor pull last year in Louisburg, KS, and was perplexed by the setup of a tractor I saw.

It was turbine powered, with the exhaust thrust being vectored upward out of the nose of the tractor. Does that mean that the driveshaft is at the center of the inlet towards the rear and the thrust kept the front of the tractor on the ground?

It did massively fail three-quarters of the way down.

I've never been able to vocally replicate the noise that a propane driven turbo blow-off valve makes.

It couldn't be. Thats not exactly modern quality film either, it looks like it was taped in the 80's.

It's not, it's the man himself.

"The root of the Arfons pulling dynasty..."

Not to mention that the video is about 20 years old.

 

[High-Test]

Oops. Shows how observant I am. I thought that the video was newer than 20 years old for some odd reason.

 

[stumpydino]

its what he started doing good quality apparently too
