Alex, the impact of tractor pulling on anything is negligible. A silly few operating some dumb contraption with the vast majority just watching it on video (as opposed to running one themselves) is pretty carbon efficient in my book. |
Yes I was thinking about this and perhaps the approach is not so silly to achieve the high horse power...but I dont know one would need to compare an onboard etc.
I know tractor pulling counts for little but it does count..in most things savings are accumulated by many small attentions...its not just the fuel but the cost..cost equates to energy in that the components of any item gets there from converting raw material which takes energy and energy burns coal or gas ...even wind turbines and solar panel have a carbon foot print..anyways if I dont like it then it should be banned ..thats reasonable...just imagine how perfect the world would be if everything was done my way
