Head to the tournament ground near Blyth in Nottinghamshire, perfectly placed between Worksop and Doncaster, for a tractor driving experience that puts you behind the wheel of real working machines. These are not showpieces – they are proper tractors used on farms, and you will be at the controls. Climb into the cab and take on a purpose-built track that cuts across the countryside. It is rutted, bumpy and full of twists, so you will need to get to grips with the tractor’s power to master it. After tackling the course, you will move on to seasonal farming tasks, just like a real farmer. Depending on the time of year, you could be doing anything from manoeuvring loads to ploughing-style challenges. No two days are quite the same. You could be driving a Massey Ferguson, a New Holland TM150, or another tractor from the fleet. For instance, the Massey Ferguson 6480 is a four-wheel-drive powerhouse capable of towing up to 20,000kg, yet inside the cab it is surprisingly comfortable with plenty of driver aids. Whichever tractor you get, thundering across the fields in one of these machines is a thrill like no other – perfect for anyone who has ever wondered what farming life feels like.
