How We Have Fun In Eastern Washington.....Demolition Combine Derby!




In Lind Washington they have held an annual Combine Derby, its been going on for 25 years now. Took my son yesterday, this was our first time ever going. Was a hoot! Amazing to watch these guys duke it out on their combines. My favorite was The Scrappy Pig, but he didn't win. Here are a few pics of the machines, wish I could have gotten closer shots. But these came off my phone, and aren't too bad considering that.

At intermission there were grain truck and pick up races. Was super cool watching them do an Australian line up of these big grain cars. Evenly spaced out on the track, if one gets passed its out of the race. The pick up trucks were wild races. Lots of bumping and rubbing of rigs. Rolled a couple of grain trucks, and more than a couple of pick ups. Good thing is no one was hurt, but it made for exciting racing.

So thats how we roll on the farm. Combine demo derbies and grain truck races. Bet you wish you were here for that.

Regards
Mister Pig
