Whoever owns that tractor should be damn proud of it. The engine sounded prettty stout and that was a hell of a run. If it is a European tractor as suggested, I wonder if our new lite prostock class here in the USA will perorm as well. I know the Europeans have smaller cui max but I don't know how the rest of our rules compare to European prostocks. Time will tell and if our new class runs like the IH on that youtube video, the fans will be getting a great show!

The rules here are
7700 lbs Component allowed (The Rocky on the video is non component on what looks like a typical (dusty) french track with a belgium sled. I think they are now working on a component version, as the current one is a little front end light on really good tracks. More info on Rocky on their website here). 510 cui Intercooler free choice of pump & turbo They run quite high rpms with the "shorter" strokes and the top 25 in Europe spin turbos in the 4.6 to 5.0 range. Best national competition for Pro Stocks are in the NL and Denmark. If you want to see more Pro Stocks in HQ videos online, check my links to the dutch TV reports on this forum here. They often show the dutch series, which is the home of about half of the European top Pro Stock tractors.
