Crazy combine derbies - how does it happen?
Racing, rallying, drag racing - thought that was it? What do you think about the derby on combine harvesters? No, this is not an idea for a fun event. This is what is happening, and not the first year. For the first time such a "competition" was held in 1988 in a tiny town in the United States with a population of 600 people. They did it purely for the entertainment of farmers. Everyone liked it so much that in the following years the fame of the combine derby gradually spread to the rest of the states.


Surprisingly, collisions on combines in an attempt to literally destroy the opponent's equipment is a very safe event that does without injury. Almost. Unfortunately, this does not apply to harvesters, and the damage often turns out to be serious. Torn off wheels, body parts, attachments - all this flies around the event area to the joyful exclamations of the audience. For the most part, farmers are driving vehicles, but representatives of other professions can take part in a non-standard competition. Just to have the courage.

From the video on the YouTube channel "AUTO HISTORY" you will learn more details about what a combine derby is, how it is held, what rules there are and what requirements participants must meet. Of course, it was not without a selection of interesting shots of the competition.
