History The football team of masters in Vladimir was organized in 1959 on the initiative of the regional committee of the Communist Party and the leadership of the local tractor plant. The first success for Vladimir football players came in 1966, when FC Traktor took first place in the zonal tournament and second in the semi-finals. In the next decade, the team twice took first place in its zone and three times participated in the semi-final tournaments of the strongest teams of class "B" and the second league, but failed to achieve a promotion into the higher league. In 1982 and 1983, Traktor did not take part in the USSR championships. In 1984, Vladimir's team was again given the opportunity to play in the second league. In the last eight championships, Torpedo's best results were 4th in 1989 and 3rd in 1991. The last success almost brought the team to the top league of the Russian championship.
