Roaring engines, death-defying plane stunts and the smell of burning rubber were among the smells and sounds on offer at this year’s Tooradin Tractor Pull and Truck Show over the weekend.
The annual event attracted thousands of people on Saturday 20 January, with attractions also including a stunt plane display, a helicopter and carnival rides.
President Allyn Reeve said the event was “very well supported“ with about 150 trucks competing for prizes and 38 tractors competing in the Tractor Pull, with competitors coming from South Australia, New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria.
He said he was grateful for the Tooradin community’s ongoing support of the event and for the committee’s hard work to organise the day.
Gazette photographer GARY SISSONS got up close to the high-octane machines to capture all of the fun.
