top speed would be in the regeon of 130, MPG will be about 35 i would have guessed.....

No doubt one of the tractor owners will be able to confirm this

Top speed would be 125 ish [ on a track ? ] fuel varies between 34 -42 mpg on my auto a manuel would be better on fuel if driven with an amount of care  ;)

Best I had out of the 3 I had was 48mpg at a steady 60mph. Average MPG was around 37ish.

Top speed about 115.

Mines running a modified map, average 37mpg, much more on motorway runs, easy 120mph (but then mine blows its coolant).

Alledgedly, Omegatoy has the fastest tractor here, or at least would if the manifold gasket wasn't fubar ;)

It must be, seeing as you get 10 billion miles from your tyres ;D

And you never drive like a hooligan, do you

That was the one I was looking for ;D


2 things spring to mind:

1) Who said the Senny wasn't tail happy...
2) How the heck you get 30k out of tyres...


In relation to the other thread on how to drive RWD, the video above is not the recommended way, unless on a track ;D
