Truck/Tractor Pulling Video: Volume 2

I always enjoy a good redneck garden party!
Sit back with your woman and a six pack and watch the good ole boys mow the lawn....

No, an Oshkosh HET would be able to pull till the end of the world, and back again.

Do you really think an Oshkosh can pull harder than a tank? Man, you don't know the difference between a wheel driven vehicle and a track driven vehicle like a tank. Nothing comes close to the traction of a tank, not even a caterpilar, just compare the weights!

I do, in fact. That's what they're made for, hauling enormously heavy machines. Hence the name, " HEAVY EQUIPMENT TRANSPORT."

You must be kidding. The tank has not only a better traction because of it has track instead of wheelb but the tank has also much more power. One tank like an Abrams M1 can pull easily half a dozens of your Oshkoshs on a sandy track like shown on this video.

Let's just agree to disagree then, shall we? Kudos to you for supporting your argument in a gentlemanly fashion. Good day sir.

Well, after a friend gave me a hint I must admit that there is indeed a wheel driven vehicle that can pull even harder than a tank, it is the Liebherr T 282B that has 3650 hp and weights 203 tons (empty!) and 592 tons full loaded. You see, these are the dimensions if you want to beat a tank, not a "toy" like an Oshkosh.

BTW: Here you see a tank pulling. Of course a full pull: watch?v=8JGHfqNeKKU

There is a weight box that moves forward on the sled. As they weight moves forward, it is transferred from adding weight to the rear wheels of the sled, to adding weight to the front "skid plate" on the sled. Thus, the vehicle goes from pulling a rolling weight, to dragging the same weight along (i.e. no longer rolling). This makes it increasingly more difficult as the weight moves forward...thus why they slow at the end.

Man, Those turbo charged 2WD's are TOO quiet. Throw a big fucking super charger on em. Ur set to go pulling. Anyone know the Average Cubic Inch for the Modern 2WD Pulling Truck?
