TUG OF WAR featuring Lego Technic models Liebherr R 9800 42100, 42099 vs 9398, 42065 MOC.Epic Battle

Follow up to my previous Tug of War! I’ve used the wooden floor this time in the hope the vehicles do not have too much traction and provide a better spectacle!
All Tracked Vehicles used rubber Studs to provide an even playing field!
I really hope you like this! Please leave feedback and subscribe to see more models and extreme projects!

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Weird right! Thanks for the comment😀

[@gregm963]

I'm pretty impressed by the 42099 and wonder if it ultimately lost because voltage drop from the batteries running out.

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Hi thanks for the comment! With the double gear mod the torque to the wheels is immense! I was trying to figure out why the tank eventually won and I reckon it could be due to the rubber studs getting warmer due to friction and giving it more grip? The Batteries were still good though, freshly charged 2400 mah which last for hours :) If the 42099 weighed more it would be hard to beat but against some of my MOCs weighing twice as much it’s a tough ask. It’s a great model though 😀

My bets were actually placed on the Champion! It's interesting how both crawlers where fighting it out for a long time. 🤘

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

I thought the Liebherr with the extra weight would win tbh! I couldn’t believe the 9398 nearly won! The 42099 tyres are so grippy!

[@krystianrysak3549]

In my opinion, these tests were not too fair, because vehicles with lego poles have worse grip on flat panels than those with rubber wheels that move more easily on the panels.

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Hi, I keep testing different surfaces as I want a bit of slip so I don’t destroy the diffs or cogs. In my 3rd video I made it grippier and next time I will try some thinner carpet😀 At the end of the day though the tracked vehicle won😉

Hey thanks Dylan! I bought my first set since I was 11 last December so that’s 25 years apart for me! Good luck, btw it took awhile to get used to the new parts at first for me but you soon get it😀

[@phil1921]

I was definitely surprised by the last one

[@dexaphobia8085]

You should tie two wires to either side of the vehicles to keep them straight, in the last match the scooper lost because it was pulled on a diagonal, if it stayed straight it might’ve won. The other crawler had an advantage since it was being pulled by the sides and not just by the middle.

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Hey there I agree! This was in the early stages and I was still learning! Since then I used two wires to keep it level! The big digger is currently winning the winner stays on series 😀

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Hey there which one do you mean? I have a video of the tracked one😀

[@jaidenglass4421]

The all tracked vehicle when connected to the truck looks like some sort of heavy duty farming machine. Like some sort of digging machine

I never saw it like that but yeah I see it now😀

[@ignobotha6284]

Incredible!

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Thank you very much Igno 😀

[@aidanwongaidanwong]

I think why the all tracked tank will win after a few seconds of tug of war is because the rubber feet heats up over time and give more grip just like in drag racing in real life

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Hey it took me longer to figure that one out so I’m impressed😀

I would like to see this on carpet cause there would be a lot more traction

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

[@ludicrousbrickstudio]

Keep up the good vids! I would use carpet for the tug surface. But you could do a test to see what surface has better traction by attaching a pull scale to he tug string.

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Hi I’ve just bought some electronic fishing scales to attach to the cars to do a pull test but I can also test the grip of the surface. Check out my mini winner stays on series too! I use 3 surfaces there which I think is better😀 and thank you very much

Haha Carl is that bothering you? I must admit I want to get rid of it!!! I can’t move the camera across as there’s a wall stopping me getting the whole shot in otherwise😀🍺

[@carlbModels]

@@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines argh you have NO IDEA how it teases my OCD and other weird stuff! it's funny though, too. And I enjoy the videos hugely, so gotta live with it. While I am here, a question for you: I am in a dilemma - form vs function. The rebodied Outlaw runs so well with smaller, skinnier tyres, yet looks weedy.... but goes faster, turns better, does everything better. Except doesn't look as cool. I tried fat rear and skinny front, but the skinnies grip over powers the rears and even the gyro can't catch it! What to do eh? apart from do a video......... 👍🍺

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Get a video up! It Reminds me of my car project! I have a 350z project track car(owned for 10 years and it’s going out in style..) it’s completely gutted out, light weight parts etc and then come the tyres... I changed from the beefy wide tyres and put skinnier and smaller diameter in! Saved 30lbs of rotational mass and some drag and the difference is night and day according to the vbox! So me personally would go for what works best! I guess it’s gripping better due to have more weight per square inch

[@carlbModels]

@@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines I like the 350 engine, nice sound to it. Had one in a Murano. When I put steel wheels on a Mondeo it improved performance a lot, narrowed, smaller, just had more grip better ride, little more body roll so I hear you! My skinny wheels are actually heavy but the width and the compound is probably the key. Argh, I don't like the look on the back with skinnies. Might unlock the rear differential and keep the fats on the back. So many combinations. Cheers for the reply, I'll ponder it for a while.

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Yeah the 350 engine is lovely and smooth and now the car weighs 1250 kg it goes pretty well too! Most new cars are over tyred partly due to looks and they’re far more playful with a little less grip on the rear! Sounds like you’re in a right conundrum over it lol!

[@johnhardy3850]

Well I don't know about 5 yet

[@Fiatfan]

Hi. I made a offroad car but when it turns the front wheels rub the surface and it slowes down instead of a smooth turn. Any way to fix it?

[@dudemediocre4412]

You should add in to the mix of vehicles, the Volvo A60H 6x6

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Yeah that would be a good opponent! May need some more power!

[@garrettbarnes7826]

The moc tank wouldve done better had it had more studs

[@AbyssCrisp]

You need to do this on pavement o something so they actually have good grip because the wood has no grip what so ever

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

On the 3rd one I made it grippier and I agree partly but there is still is grip here it’s just when you have two equalling forces you can’t tell as much! Check the trailer out and that modded 42099 is pulling 20 plus kg with no grip issues on this wood😀 Thanks for the feedback😀

[@StarCoreSE]

The wire needs to be horizontal, because thé highest opponent is advantaged due to the other one pulling it down and offering it extra traction at the expense of its own.

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Hey you’re correct and I made a mistake here! In my winner stays on series I made sure it was horizontal😀

[@timothycole9232]

Why have you got more than the necessary amount of hubs given how expensive they are

Is it possible to get two PU L motors, a servo motor and a hub for under $60?

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Hi sorry I’m in the uk and not sure how your second hand market is. I know the l motors are quite expensive but if you want some the best thing to do is get a second hand Liebherr set and sell parts you don’t want. There’s 4 l’s in the set and 2 hubs plus 3 xls. Worth far more in parts😀

this would be more extreme in if one machine lost they would fall a 1ft into the ground and break

[@buder5116]

there a trend the 1 being pulled upward by the rope allway loose , to some degree but very often

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

The thought went through my head as well but the floors level so just one of those things I guess! After awhile the all tracked vehicles studs started to get warm due to friction which appears to be the reason why it eventually gained grip! It did weigh a lot!

Would you recommend the 42099 or the 9398?

[@GazRsExtremeBrickMachines]

Personally I feel the Bluetooth control is way ahead of the old power functions IMO. Also I love how you can use a PS4 or any Bluetooth controller to drive them with the brick controller 2 app.. However people who have Buwizz can do that too with power functions. As standard models the 9398 has better gearing but if you switch the gears on the 42099 It’s great. I love both models but if I was buying now it would be the 42099😀
