Re: G63 on the mobile schockel run

 Any 4x4 with a good low range should be able to do that e.g. old Discovery. Looks impressive but is quite easy due to excellent traction on those metal tracks. Just have to have the guts.

Or not?

 Notice the low engine revs, when it climbs up the ramp.  I would guesstimate it at some 1800  to 2000 rpm.

 This is more impressive, and it's just a humble old 250 with 85hp

Well iffen one locks the rear diff, throws on full lock and tramps the throttle, one can easily cut grass with the rear tyres.
I have yet to master the collection bit.
But I did say "cut"
It's all in the small print Old Boy.
