What happens if you combine a Harvester with Detroit Muscle?

Not a question actually. This is what I saw this afternoon. Racing with Combine is becoming more popular in the Netherlands.






From what we heard, global warming originates here This picture really doen't do the actual smoke justice..

I've got some spectacular clips later.

Here's one.
[[These were Diesels, no Detroit connection at all)

And here's two.
[[This is the stuff! V8 monsters in a harvester!)

That looks like great fun! But it looks downright dangerous!!


Look at the driver of that yellow harvester. Completely unprotected. And these machines do tip over now and then. Here, when racing, all exposed object such as the blades and the trump have to be removed, the driver has to be strapped in with a 6-point harnass and there's a full rollcage madatory.
