1000 horsepower, seems it should have gone faster that what it did??

How many bottom plow would it pull? To qualify as a tractor, it should BE a tractor, like be able to plow all day,pull a planter,have a working PTO, etc. Just my 2 cents. joe

That is zipping right along. I have a neighbor who would buy that tractor just because it goes fast on the road.

That really looks like a powerful one but lacking of efficiency.

As D.W. would say, boogity, boogity, boogity!!

Makes about the same amount of sense as seeing how many plows a drag race car could pull.

No different than a NASCAR car not being able to take the kids to school or drive in highway traffic etc. And plowing and pto work are not necessarily criteria to be a tractor, plenty of tractors are used just for road work especially in Europe and India

Interesting. Someone had to do that wind fairing on the front end to lessen wind drag to make those kind of speeds. And the braking parachute, the first one ever seen on a tractor? We saw it here first.

That square cab is what kills the speed.

Phil Scarborough · Nov 20, 2019

It will pull a 6 bottom plough, not seen in this picture, it is still fitted with the 3 link assembly, and only needs a change of tyres to go to work. I understand that to claim the tractor speed record, it must be able to operate as a tractor.

I wonder the top speed of that square cab.

I still want one of the high speed armored backhoe loader tractors JCB is building for our military .

Looks like they are going to have to do some work on the 8ncredible to get the record back.

Fast tractor new record !
