Default Ryan's M3 medium

Hi guys, my M3 arrived today. The semi it came on didn't have enough room to turn into my driveway so we offloaded it down the road on the neighbours lane. It was raining heavily when it arrived so everything and everyone got a good soaking.
Reversing it off the truck was pretty nerveracking as I had not driven it before or any tracked vehicle for that matter. The truck driver was a vietnam vet and simply told me that once the centre of gravity of the tank was off the trailer not to stop or try to turn. This I did and all was good.
I then drove it down the road to our place. I couldn't find any other gear apart from 1st though! Just too nervous I guess.
It's now sitting next to the house after tearing up a bit of the garden. The other half looked something like this...

Still haven't had a real good look though as the rain just hasn't stopped.
