Oh, the shameless self-promotion! Anyone would think you are trying to make a living from this...

Out of interest, did they specially import that late 80s citroen AX? It seems oddly out of place at the NASCAR hall of fame.

it's the same car they have been using since 2006! I kind of thought they would have got a new one this year as they had to put so much weight in it to actually make it harder. Also it looks like a little toy car! Bigger always looks better when it comes to strongman events imo

How do you find that compares to yoke at the same weight? It is a great looking event, bu I agree using a bigger car would be better than putting weight in it.

I guess a car with a longer wheel base would be harder to balance

Thats awesome Terry!
Nice nice one Happy

How different does that feel to say a 440kg yoke on your back?

Hadnt seen what Boar wrote Roll-Eyes
