McGill University Tractor Pulling Team Official page of the McGill University Tractor Pulling Team

The McGill University Quarter Scale Tractor Pull Team; also known as µtrac; is a newly developed team on the Macdonald Campus of McGill University that was formed by fourteen Bioresource Engineering Students. The goal of µtrac is to demonstrate and develop the knowledge obtained in the Bioresource Engineering courses, as well as gain valuable experience in a ‘real life’ situation by constructing a

tractor, analysing costs and promoting the idea to a market. Teams from McGill University have participated in the Quarter-Scale Tractor Competition from 2000 to 2005 inclusively. As rules have changed, technology has evolved and as very few functional parts from the last tractor from McGill University have been found, it is practically impossible to gain any knowledge from the past teams. Thus, even if there is a history of McGill participation in the Quarter Scale Tractor Pulling Competition, it was decided to start fresh and develop a brand new concept.

Unfortunately due to COVID-19 the ASABE 2020 quarter-scale tractor competition has been cancelled.

With our competition season coming to an abrupt end, we would like to take this opportunity to thank all our sponsors, mentors, team members, campus community and everyone in-between. Thank you for your continued support!

Although we are not competing, the season was not lost. Here are some highlights from this year. From teaching new members SolidWorks, electing new team leaders, our Seeds and Video campaigns, and of course building our tractor! But most importantly the experiences and friendships along the way.

As many of you are aware, due to COVID-19 the Quebec government has shut down educational institutions for the next two weeks. Unfortunately this also includes the shop we work out of.

In the meantime our team is busy working on our written report. We are eagerly awaiting for facilities to reopen and to continue building in hopes of having our tractor ready for competition.

This is our current plan. We will be updating all of our amazing sponsors and followers as soon as more news of the situation develops and we have a clearer idea of the future.

Stay safe out there!
