Harald: This is my combine harvester dragster.
It's funny and dangerous.
Petri: Anything can go wrong.
Look at it. It's looking old but also crazy.
The countryside of Norway,
is home to a farm vehicle with a difference.
Harald: This is very special.
Having been souped up with
a 1976 Cadillac Eldorado 8.2 liter V8 engine,
this 1967 Fahr M44
is now more at home on the track than in the field.
It weighs in at 4000 pounds,
packs 500 horsepower
and has a top speed of 95 miles per hour,
making it the fastest combine harvester
in the world.
So how do you get to own such a unique machine?
Harald: I was a little drunk.
I meet the builder I thought this is very fun.
After some drinks on the evening, I buy it.
The creator of this crazy combine
is Petri from Finland
and it's not his first wild conversion.
Petri: I have a world class skoda
and I have made Rolls Royce truck there.
Both of which sounds relatively sane
compared to this superfast Fahr.
Harald: It's a crazy drive.
And it's fast.
Here's the cockpit I love this place.
This is from the original combine,
It’s very fun to drive.
There is a, you use when you go on the track.
It pushes I mean it to go faster.
And the, the brakes is like the Cadillac.
There's also a little brake on the wheel behind that.
It's dangerous to use. So I don't use that.
And what better way to see what this vehicle is made of,
than in a drag race against some true American Muscle,
a Shelby GT 350.
Harald: This machine is not street legal in Norway.
Petri: It's crazy.
It's fast and dangerous.
Anything can go wrong.
Harald: This will win.
Petri: This vehicle is very fun to drive. I love it.
Harald: This was fun.
This dragster combine harvester is open drive.
Petri: Really fun. Harald: Thank you.
Thank you for making this harvester for me.
That's a good dragster.
Next time I get the combine okay? Petri: Okay.
