So cool to see the older version Brockasaurus. Had no idea it ran a 12V71 Detroit. Like seeing the old PA crew of Lindseys and Flocks also. Interesting to see Silver Bullet's old power plant. Hope to see old Tom Lindsey taking on those CAT powered semis again.
@@EEPPULLINGVIDEOS thank you. I love watching your videos they bring back great memories of my childhood at the Buck.please keep up the phenomenal work
At 11:40 watch the intake on the right side that is in the grill of the Kenworth. As he goes down the track it's slowly shuts closed and that shut him down. No air going in the motor, no power coming out. Those are a really good idea to stop a runaway diesel
@@deborahchesser7375 well that is one thing they are used for but in this case they are emergency shutoffs for multiple reasons. Every truck has to have one for If it breaks free of the sled there is a switch on the back that is pulled the flap closes and shuts them down.
4:53 HE blew a connecting rod; which is why the exhaust, went from black to white (burning coolant, from broken engine block) at about 4:41 time. Too bad, as a previous cabover, had a V12 detroit, as well.
I agree with you. The European trucks are probably just as good as far as pulling but nothing is prettier than American trucks, especially the older conventional’s like the B model Mack, Peterbilt 359’s, Autocar’s and Brockways’s( Mack bought Brockways)and with basically any motor/transmission combo you wanted. Really neat stuff.
Just a question...now when measured, where do u measure from.tje fry of sled or is it the frt wheels of truck?...I can't remember and I hear 2diff stories....
Measure to the front center of the buckbord on sled. Thats the point of hook for the chains attached to the sled. Now if lasers are used to measure distance, the laser card is usually above cab on the sled. They then do the math to calculate from the laser card locationto the front center of the buckboard
Looks like the flexing blue kw gave it up. That was a very unhealthy shutdown. I think the engine was hurt. Hearing it come down the track is was a cylinder down
That's Tom Lindsey's "Built For Business" truck. Tbf It sounded kinda odd on the best day because iirc it had 3 cyl going to one stack and 3 cyl going to the other stack which made for a unique sound. In the pull off the motor definitely wasn't happy and actually that unique exhaust setup actually shows you are right. If you look at the right stack when it starts running rough late in the pass you can actually see the exhaust coming out choppy if that makes sense (as if 2 pistons fire and send exhaust out and one piston isnt)
It's really hard for me to imagine a Driver would actually need help calling attention to themselves driving a Pulling Rig But I guess she thinks the sparkler's get the job done ..
The flag man at the start line has a glorious mullet.

I remember my late father taking us to Buck every weekend today 2/24/2023 marks 25 years of his passing. I'm watching this in his memory
Very sorry for your loss. Thanks for watching
@@EEPPULLINGVIDEOS thank you. I love watching your videos they bring back great memories of my childhood at the Buck.please keep up the phenomenal work
Can’t wait for the Buck to open again! Been going and mud bogging for last 25 years!
Love the sound of a Detroit up on the pipe.

They put flappers on em to suffocate it if it runs away, damn Detroit’s one stuck rack and they take off

Great classic video 👍🏼
Nothing sounds as pretty as an old 2 stroke Detroit for sure.
The DIESEL DOCTOR brings the SMOKE
Love the black Kenworth cabover that did a full pull.
Straight six for the win!!!!
love the cabovers thanks for sharing

How about that poor 12-71 Detroit at @04:20 ventilating the block and it still kept going!
💥💥💥💥
She came apart in a bad way, at 3500. Sounded like it was taching 10k lol
That first truck sounds like its running a 2 stroke Detroit diesel
It was and so was the truck with the V12
10:51 damn i like these trucks . i dont know much aboyt truck but that specific truck is my favorite. you will not find it in europe .rare

@@deborahchesser7375 and ya also forgot about the good old Western Star also
That ol Dodge blew the charge pipe
12:00 Another wonderfull, V!2 detroit; burning coolant ( white exhaust smoke).....is a D E A D giveaway....(oldtrucker)
Imagine the Tesla semi trying to do as good as these trucks
The battery would weigh more than the sled. Those electric cars aren't going anywhere, they're too expensive.
What happened to J.R. Flock's Wildfire? Anybody seen it lately?
Word is both Flock trucks are still in their possession just sitting
Top top 👏👏✌👍👍

@@EEPPULLINGVIDEOS OK cool ty I wasn't sure up here in ont Canada in some less of big shows are different u hear blah blah blah...ik thank you lots...
The ole Detroit showed them how it's done
Truck at 7:36 looked very chill 😂
What! You couldn't show their distance?
Whatever happened to Bret Barnett?
Don't know

Balls to the wall and all built to haul can't buy those at the mall
Do the measure to the front of the truck or the front of the sled?
Sled. They use laser distancing on the sled because the vehicles can have different length.
Ese grillo también es camionero ?
I have nothing against it, but a kenworth I6 (Cummins) out pulls a Kenworth V12 (Detroit)??? That's kool.
Wildfire is a nice rig

That was a side show program for promoters. They were paid by Promoters to do it, at least that was what I was told
Pulling requires quick smooth shifting. Take to long to change gears you lose your momentum
5:20 would you look at that?
Amazing 👍
круто
10:00 typical dodge

What an annoying announcer, geez!
That is Ozz Arment "The Voice of the Buck". R.I.P. Loved that guy.
