Great video.

I bet those brake drums were rather warm by the end of that drive.

Default Carrier action

Nice one. Just on 13 minutes of Carrier action in the hills, that must be a first. Nice to hear that tweeked Flathead pulling away up the track in 2nd gear. Awesome stuff.

Marvelous video! Great to see it slip and slide trying to get up that slope. Bet if the soil was not as loose it would have climbed it no problem!

Love the terrain. Makes for a great playground. Holland is flat as a pancake...

Cheers,
