Poor JD didn't have a chance. Seems like a plow would be more effective.

Wouldn't that be the cooked power of steam? :laughing:

The raw power of several things. The steamer is a bunch heavier, the hitch point was unequal, pulling the JD's rear tires up off of the ground. The JD was not in 4 wheel drive. This was a total show stunt.

Like it would have mattered if the rope was level and the JD was in 4wd.

I dont think the steamer was in 4wd either though.:laughing:
In reality, I dont think any of it would have mattered either. Just too much weight

In a pulling contest, hp is irrelevant. A 1/2 hp motor properly geared to a heavy vehicle drivetrain will out pull a lighter vehicle every time. It won't pull very fast but it will out pull the lighter/less tractioned vehicle every time.

10 ft in the air? Really?
I'll buy 10 feet. I used to run a lugger scrap truck before I retired and when picking up a heavy scrap box, I could bring the front end off the ground 10 feet, no issue. Just had to be careful setting it down so you didn't break a spring.
