Krikke Boys Burnout masters and tractor pull – Bunbury speedway

Saturday morning we made the trek from Perth to Bunbury speedway to cover the Krikke Boys Burnout masters and tractor pull.

The event started at around 1pm with a practice session for anyone to refine their skills on the Bunbury speedway burnout pad , we have seen this used only once ourselves at the one night stand burnout competition organized by Richie Howlett and it is a great pad , especially during the daylight hours as the colour of the dirt and the cars look great

Running behind us was the tractorpullwa.com tractor pull demonstrations , some interesting tractors were on show including one that featured a supercharged drag motor running on methanol , for the people at home who haven’t seen what a tractor pull competition is all about , take 1 angry tractor and a “sled” trailor full of concrete , the tractor pulls the sled along a track which over a distance gets harder to pull , testing the power and torque of the tractor , it’s a sight to see and interesting to shoot when the tractors get a little loose at the finish line!

Finals took place under lights and finished at around 8:30ish giving us plenty of time to trek back to Perth , overall we shot over 400 photos which look awesome and can be viewed on Fully Automotive’s 16,000 strong photo gallery at http://photoshop.fullyautomotive.com
