Bob......I really don't know what she'll do for top speed and I don't think I'm going to try to find out. Originally, I had it geared to max out at 28mph in high range, but I ended up gearing it way higher because my low range was radically slow with the original set up. I'm guessing it's geared for a theoretical 48 mph now in high range (not sure if it would pull that figure, but I suspect it might)......I've probably had her doing around 30 or so, but that's about as fast as I cared to try. Although it seemed to handle well at that speed, I didn't build her with the intention of going that fast and I don't want to stress the suspensions and steering system anymore than I need to.Mr. Deere wrote:Nice how fast does it go???
I finally weighed it last night. I had originally guessed at around 1450 pounds, but I had lowered my guesstimate somewhat when I tried it out and found that it seemed to go through the powder quite well. Anybody care to take a guess?

It looked kinda tippy in the video when you were in the field but good to hear it handles well. Maybe 1000lbs
