sweet! my opposed sounds like that dose with the straight pipes. it only goes 30 with 3:2 ratio on pulleys, so it needs to be sped up with your different gears trick.

Yeah Stretch, I agree with red. It just isn't right without "The Silver Bullet" painted on the side.
AWESOME THOUGH! What kind of pulleys did you have on it for this?

Pulleys on ours are normally 1:1 , but the transaxle is geared up internally with Rom's custome gears... He decreased the rear pulley for this to squeeze some more out of it, but we can do 45mph on them with 1:1.
The way more impressive thing about this video in my opinion is how stable the tractor is at that speed... He's just nonchalantly resting his hand on the wheel at 50+ mph... By the way, that is not stock steering behavior.
