THE unmistakable sound of engines at full noise will echo across the Mallee once again when the 2026 Kubota Australian Tractor Pull Championships roar into life at the Quambatook Tractor Pull Complex on Easter Saturday.
Now entering its 49th year, this iconic event continues to attract competitors and spectators from across Australia, cementing Quambatook’s reputation as The Home of Tractor Pulling.
The championships promise a full day and night of raw horsepower, mechanical innovation and genuine country hospitality.
“Widely regarded as one of the most powerful forms of motorsport, modified tractor pulling pushes extreme horsepower and innovation to the limit,” organisers said.
The action begins at 1.00pm with the ever-popular vintage tractor pull, showcasing the machinery that laid the foundations of Australian farming.
From 3.30pm, the pace intensifies as modified tractors and trucks take to the track, pulling enormous weight down the 100-metre course in a true test of strength, traction and engineering.
Among the standout entries is the iconic Quamby Quaker, a Super Modified running a blown 502 Chev paired with a 4020 John Deere transmission and rear end - a machine that can only be seen competing at Quambatook. It will be joined in the Super Modified class by Woteva, featuring twin 350 Chev engines, a Road Ranger transmission and Steiger back end.
During the tea break, patrons are invited into the pits for up-close access to the tractors and trucks, enjoy a bit of live music and more.
