The idea of the tractor pulling race is to pull a heavy trailer (sled) along a 100 meter long, clay-sand surfaced, ten meter wide track as far as possible. The trailer is built so that the drawing resistance increases along the race. While pulling, the weight on the trailer moves towards the front and increases the weight on the breaking device. The most successful in the race is the one who is able to drive the longest distance.
The aim is to make a "Full Pull", which means pulling the whole hundred meters. In case there are several competitors making the Full Pull, the carriage is adjusted and a new race will be held. According to the new rules, in the rerun, a 110 meter track can be used to further decrease the possibility of a Full Pull.
