Coolest YouTube vid ever vs. a real tug-o-war!

YouTube - tank vs quadtrack

This is a CaseIH Quad-Trac tractor, one of the biggest made with 500hp and 1700lbft of tq. Its hooked up to a "Warthog" tank wtih a Rolls Royce turbo V8 with 1000hp.

The Case would have won if it weighed more, the tracks started slipping then it was all over

Cool vid Brandon.

My family actually started the small tractor company that eventually became Case IH.

Cool vid!

That looks like the tractor they had on Top Gear when they grew their own petrol.

Brandon, I know you're a tractor guy. I think you'll like this, too.

YouTube - 2 tractors drifting on snow

(I apologize for the music... I recommend *mute*)

Re: Coolest YouTube vid ever vs. a real tug-o-war!

ha yeah I saw that one! Drifting on snow is fun with tractors, I have done it. Drifting on asphalt with a tractor, now you are doing something.

At least someone likes the vid!

Re: Coolest YouTube vid ever vs. a real tug-o-war!

Please do, I am obsessed with IH and Case. I have most of the books and hope to one day buy back my grandads 1970? IH 966 with the cab option.
