Tractors...

[Giles]

6920s should be a 6.8L and nearer 165hp at the shaft. So with most tuning boxes a 20% boost. It'll be a good 185hp.

I didn’t look it up was just from memory haha

Interesting...a main "lane" has been shut so our single track lane has tripled in traffic last few weeks ....been stuck at home I've noticed the steady stream of Tracs ..from casual observation and knowing the locals etc I'd say at least a 1/3 deffo not ag...dump trailers of mot, 13t machines, concrete precast block and beams etc all belting past ...can't see the red change having any affect here

 

[Giles]

yeh right

I think he does he’s got two very acrimonious ex wife’s who he’s been tied up in huge legal battles with 1 of them with legal fees into 250k each and every dirty trick in the book been out from ministry to planners to social services about kids with other ex wife who he’s been in custody battle with. Ex wife 2 is big farming family so been fighting over the £3m farm and business just got settlement with her getting 8% of her claimed amount and now waiting on costs ruling having offered way more than the £42k that is before trail she might get his £250k legal bill.

[doobin]

Seconded. Like I said earlier, it’s all very well folk being pulled on red and switching to white. But the industry is still in limbo until vosa make an example of some folk.

 

[V8Druid]

he must have a penchant for wedding cake

 

[Giles]

he must have a penchant for wedding cake

He’s a really nice handsome charismatic guy who’d do anything for you, women love him they think wow what a great husband he’ll be he works 18 hours days 7 days a week but I’ll change him and actually see him when he’s mine……

then he doesn’t change they don’t see him as he’s working 18 hour days because he’s trying to give them what he thinks they want money house business etc but all they want his someone to spend time with after 3 divorces you’d think he’d learn….

got young baby with latest and when we talk he’s like she’s kicking off about all the hours I work doesn’t she know need to earn to pay solicitors and finance etc….

he needs to knock if out of 5th and plod for a bit

 

[DaveDCB]

Sounds like afew folk I know! My missis has slowed me down alot recently.. 350hr+ months for 5 years non stop takes its toll eventually and you just gotta stop and think what are you doing all that for.. that said we have just started another big project and have another one in the pipeline, also slowly moving into some agricultural works of our own (thus the tractor ) and a list as long as my arm of jobs I need to get sorted before I started other jobs 2 years ago…!

 

[Lancs Lad]

Yes, I drove a tractor with a dump trailer, and it's not as difficult as it seems, but the tractor engine power for this should be above 30HP

Bit posh I think the standard is a tafe maybe an armtrac if pushing the boat out

I think we've got another live one.

To be fair, he claims to be from NA, where "tractor" may mean "prime mover".
(also assume there is a zero missing)
