The point is to ...
The point is to pull the trailer the furthest.. If you manage to pull it 100 meters you move to next round. As you drive along, the load on the trailer moves forward and makes it harder for the tractor to pull. The dude on the trailer controls the movement of the weight, as well as driving the trailer back to the start after disconneting the tractor..:)

Doing pointless ...
Doing pointless things is not the sole prerogative of North America. We in Europe have been doing pointless things for centuries. :) Actually, I remember my classmates talking about this of thing (I grew up in a rural area) 30 years ago, so it's not something entirely novel either. Went to see one myself some 10, 15 years ago in my parents' village. It was rather loud...
