Took my dads 5 Ton M813 to the Raccoon Firemans fair and truck and tractor pull.
Sled was set up to stop a 300hp 28K lb 4x4 International tractor with duals (and did) I out pulled him!
Pulled 353' (there was no more track) I spun out in mud at the end of the track. Grousers were down, weight transfer was all the way up.

Yep, low and slow!

I'm not sure 2nd would have got me as far, but it wasn't working too hard first 3/4 of the track.
