Depends which order you do the "clutch out" and "plant foot" bits.:angel: Only minimal wheelspin doing it like the video.

wow i must say that did pick up very quick for second gear :o would you have anymore vids of your rig dougal?
Going down to Mudgee tomorow to pick up 3.5 tons of fencing material. Wonder if she will hold 4th in the hills on the way home;) :D
Made it back no worries, had a car trailer and the 120" loaded with sine coils of 3'6" netting, four coils of fence wire, 800 heavy duty star pickets + a few other odds and ends. Well over 3.5 tons and did it easy. This is why the 4BD1T eats a 300 tdi alive. Holds forth gear in hill as doesn't have the stupid turbo lag problem. Has no trouble starting off in high range with a hill start and I'm running 35's with 3.54 diffs!
Have some video but not uploading them as over 44 megs each! Cost me a furtune.
Best I can manage is 19 on the flat :(
Thats with a lot of stuff, the rack and accessories and crappy Tasmanian diesel :mad:
Once I've got the new injectors and bigger intercooler, I'll take the rack off and lighten it up a bit then see what I can get :twisted:
It's funny after the trip away, there is a huge difference in the quality of diesel between Tassie and the Mainland
gotta say - up to about 100 or so the 4.6lt in the rangie raelly boots off the mark - alot quicker then some cars & off road its just nutter fun hehe :) not sure how it would do against a tdi for a comparo tho hehe still fun tho!!
I managed to convert a video from AVI to MPEG4 so only now 1.7meg:D
Just a rough one on the way home with the load on.
Slight up hill start and only up. You can see just how willing these great engines are at towing. Does it easy, over and over again:)
