Welland 2007 - after the flood
Due to the appalling July weather and extensive flooding in the area, Welland had to be postponed until the end of September but it was well worth the wait.
The July flood water was up to 10ft deep in the vicinity of Upton-upon-Severn just 4-miles down the road from the Welland Show Ground.
... Tom Prout with his Ford 5000 smoking his tyres hitched to the back of the Sledge, being dragged up the track backwards by the steamer...
Living proof that Tom was doing his best to stop the McLaren but failing. Yes, that's burnt rubber on the track laid down while the Ford 5000 was being pulled backwards down the track behind the Sledge.
A new Puller having it's first outing at Welland in September. The tin work came from a Case MXM190 but underneath that is an 1993 ERF 'E' series with a 365 bhp 12-litre Rolls Royce 'Eagle'. The Puller was built by Andrew Woolacot who is better known as 'Jonty'.
Another new Puller is 'Forest Thunder' driven by 'Dingle' (Gareth Lockyer) and owned by Dave Read & Darren Larkham from the Forest of Dean.
Roger Kear with a re-engined Complete Utilities Pullers with a rather special 6.2-litre 380T engine. The injector pump is a rather special Bosch 005 running 'off the rack' and the engine is fitted with twin Holset Turbo's providing 80 psi of boost.
A bit of V-8 power. Nigel Price driving 'JR' which is a normally aspirated 17.2-litre Fiat Iveco unit out of a Pea Viner...
Straight-6 Ford 360T & 8.3-litre Perkins V8 can only mean 'Major Aggro' from Solihull in the West Midlands.
Now we come to two of the noisiest Pullers on the 'Independent' circuit. Andy Stephens, possibly better known as 'Molly' for some strange reason driving 'Big Girl'. An IH 1040 fitted with a Supercharged 8.5-litre 2-stroke V8 Detroit Diesel.
If it's possible, 'Noise Pollution' is even louder! Not the ear defenders being worn by James Yardley (driving) and Campbell on the Sledge.
One of the best known faces on the Tractor Pulling scene. Bill Parker driving 'The Fox'...
Q. When is a John Deere 7810 not a John Deere?
A large cloud of black smoke and very large rear wheels means it has to be Trevor Heal from Wincanton in Somerset with his Massey Ferguson 699 with a 5.8-litre Perkins 6354 straight-6 form a 17-tonne Dodge.
At last, a great photograph of 'Redline Frenzy' (thank you 'Timby') driven by John Sowerby from Bridgend in South Wales. If you want to know the full technical details of the Puller have a look at its 
Robert Jones from Llandovery set in the shadow of the Brecon Beacons in Wales with his Fordson Major fitted with a straight-6 'D' series engine.
James Slater from Pembrokeshire driving the 'Rusty Nail', a Perkins 510 (8.3-litre) twin turbo V8. Not actually the most handsome Puller on the track but nevertheless reliable.
Resplendent in its new Bassaleg Hire livery, 'Possibly Perfection' driven by Dave Phillips. Yes, it's 'Midland Sherpa Spares' with a new LDV Convoy body.
'Stormin' Norman Young's 'Fippeny Frenzy'. A Seddon Atkinson tractor unit fitted with a Rolls Royce straight-6.
A close neighbor of Norman's in Dorset. Gerry Ellis driving his 6.2-litre straight-6 to very good effect. Somehow Gerry always manages to produce a good plume of black smoke!
Not a Tractor Puller but a visitor pulling the Sledge. Any offers for a positive identification?
