That has to be hydrostatic drive. I am impressed, but wouldn't want to ride in it very far from tools, spare parts, and a recovery vehicle

I actually watched that one right after the original. What a moron! You mean you can't smell the clutch burning! There is a trick to doing a burnout in a stick shift car and he obviously did not have a clue to how to do it. More money than brains.

Figured you would watch that. Did you hear him cry after he opened the hood?
SO.....what is the trick to doing a burn out without tearing up the clutch. Not that I would try it in my jeep.

You have to use the heel toe method. Heel on brake and toe on gas and left foot on the clutch. You need to apply just enough front brake to keep the vehicle from rolling and at the same time do not have too much brake so the rear wheels will not turn.

Raymond, I thought the same thing but we all missed the name of this thing, Chainlink. It is chain driven to the wheels from the gear box's. Think about the KISS theory and there it is. I love the cantilever suspension and the hydraulics. The hydraulics can be run from the power steering pump or a simple add on pump for a bucket lift, chains are just...........simple.
