Grassroots motorsport pulls big tractors and bigger crowds
Since 1946, thousands of spectators have flocked to the small hamlet of Langford, near Buffalo N.Y., for the annual tractor pull, which is the longest-running competition of its kind in America.

Generations of spectators and competitors take over a small hamlet in Western N.Y. each summer to participate in a motorsport with roots in farming: the tractor pull.
