Can a Fastrac GRIP?

It's well known that JCB Fastrac are considered a transport tractor. Well since it's pretty quiet and we have a 4220 to play with Donkey and Gazza have decided to carry out a few tests to see if the Fastrac is indeed a Tractor.
Please note Donkey has taken on the filming role for these challenges. So no professional cameramen were injured in the shooting of this video!

In Austria many Farmers use Fastracs old and new Models, the might be quite expensive but also very reliable.

[@ArchersView]

A good video that shows what a Fastrac can do!! Looks a impressive combination!!

[@deanturner2706]

You wanna chat to George Saunders he's a fan of the fastrac and has a sweet T DUB too. Cracking video boys. Stay safe 👍

[@Grassmen]

Covid 19 has spoiled those plans.

Yeah definitely a hindrance to normal life right now but if we can all come out of this safe and well then I can wait for that video 😁 in the mean time I've ordered a few of your dvds to keep me entertained as I've just about completed netflix 😂

[@paulwilliams3494]

Great to see the JCB in action. They were really ahead of their time and I still don't understand why they aren't sold in greater numbers especially as agriculture these days involves more and more transport. A great British product. I remember going to a ploughing match in Lincolnshire in 1989/1990 and chasing one carrying a four or five furrow reversibe on the back......I struggled to catch up with it on the short straights/bends and I had an XR2!!!!

[@farmersson6721]

1:55 that's a much bigger tanker than I thought

[@BrunyeeSalers]

Nice to see clean tankers, round here near Dorchester Dorset they are filthy from top loading spills.

[@mattoates7636]

Love your videos so informative but in an entertaining way. Also try watching with subtitles it's hilarious

[@calebalt1557]

😂

[@tomwe11ings]

Great video! Donkey getting a go behind the camera too! Lol

[@Grassmen]

Back to basics. He loves it.

[@patodwyer721]

Very impressive performance 😍

[@jascollinscork]

OMG aside from the 💪🏻 performance of the JCB the cb and general commentary was unreal!! Great video overall 👌🏻😍

Who won the giveaway that was meant to be announced yesterday or was it announced privately to the winner

[@upthereds4939]

she’s a fair rig, the tanker looks well on her 👌🏻🚜💨💨

[@davidobrien3476]

Donkey is wild at the start

[@ronankiely8261]

Ye should visit Glen South farm near mallow co cork it is a 600 acre farm with the only lely vector in Ireland

[@stryrker135]

You guys should so do some vids like BIG RIGS!! Love seeing your action shots of yokes flat out on the lanes!!!!

[@nigelclats6970]

Loading the front is more or less a waste of time. Deck weight is what a Fastrac needs as they are super light on the back end.

[@shayreynolds9585]

What’s the story with the 3690

[@michealwhite8776]

Gary looked like wouldn't make it up the hill , especially with the slow start, but fair play... It's a steep hill but in the right conditions you should be able to spread uphill with the JCB no bother ... I'd love a drive on the fast track myself 🤔🤣🤣 .... I used to spread slurry for a neighbour , one field was so steep you where looking at the sky going up it, this happened very rarely. PS any jobs going lol

[@patrickmchugh1578]

Love the jcb donkeys

[@bhennessyinternationaltran7046]

💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

[@geoffdempsey9938]

I thought u were . announcing the winner on the 30th

[@paulfogarty1034]

any good driver would not spread the slurry at the gate 1st you start at the other side and work towards the gate

[@Grassmen]

We never said we were good tho. But thanks for the tip. The cameraman must not have wanted to wait until the last load to see how it gripped up the steepest bit of the hill.

[@darraghgormley2205]

Want a fastrac now

[@blaineriach2409]

Thank you for actually farming 👍👍

[@Tomherbs]

Is that kirsties new red BMW?

Great video as always stay safe and mind herself grassmen

[@geoffreyford779]

is gazza your brother are you going to do a update on the farmers that went to Canada

[@jameswilson5007]

Yay may bring her down to Monaghan till we teach yas about hills

[@lukefinnegan6548]

Think she could handle the big chaser bin 🤔 give the fendt a run for her money

[@Jake-.102]

Cracking vid please heart

[@MartinBradyRallyCoDriver]

I think it's originally a Bob Marley song later covered by inner Circle,

[@Grassmen]

Lol. The Peter Andre song bit Donkey was singing couldn't be released on the airwaves lol. The Bit you heard was in reference to the Ling Long tyres on the tractor.

[@Brewer070]

If you want more grip, lower the tyre pressures they are probably at about 25psi

[@Grassmen]

35psi.

[@Brewer070]

@@Grassmen we run ours at 20 and then 10 in the field if the isn't much weight on the back or the back tyres at 16, out pulls the neighbors 6215r and nearly Mf 7726 Dyna vt

[@jamesowen5492]

I love using my fast track for carting but will always use the deer for field work but hats just me

[@Grassmen]

We aren't trying to say it's better than a tractor. More is it a tractor. If that makes sense.

[@jamesowen5492]

GRASSMEN I totally understand I personally feel that If you have a choice between the fast track and a tractor you would buy a tractor ..that been said I’m huge a fan boy of your content. Keep it up

[@pauldoherty7895]

Glenmore estates would give Gary a run for his money with their 3500 gallon tanker

[@kieranhutchinson285]

Would the fastrac not weigh a bit more than the case puma therefore grip better let Randal in it to test her

[@Grassmen]

Yeah shes a good bit heavier.

[@Grassmen]

Weve actually nicknamed the Fastrac after Randal. AKA (SPEEDY)

[@kieranhutchinson285]

@@Grassmen Randal only knows one position for the throttle lol

[@nigelclats6970]

10 psi out of them tyres would help

[@Grassmen]

Yup. We know this. But we had them set as per recommendation for full weight and 65kph.

[@adamdunlea9984]
