Elmore Tractor Pull

The first Australian modified tractor pull was held at the Elmore Field Days in 1976, and in 2022 the Elmore Events Centre is excited to be bringing the tractor pull back to where it all began. The Elmore Field Days committee and St Joseph's Primary School Rochester are partnering to present this great event.

What is a Tractor Pull? A modified tractor pulls a weighted sled along a 11m wide 100m long dirt track and as the tractor pulls the sled further the more forward the weight goes on the sled causing the sled to get harder to pull. When the tractor “pulls” the whole 100m this is called a full pull. Tractor pulling is known as most powerful motorsport due to some tractors having more than one engine with some of them being over 1000hp.
