This is great! I don't have any of the Power Puller wheels, but I want some now.

Could you show any more details on the mechanics of the model?

No :-)

I'd like to
see exactly how your motors and drive train are set up as well as the
suspension. Or is this part a secret too because of the challenge?

Your right, showing how everything works would kinda defeat the whole
object. I'd be very interested to know if anyone can beat me. I also thought
that if I wanted to describe it as the most powerful Lego tractor I should
give people the oppertunity to prove me wrong if they have built something
even better. So rather than being a direct challenge, it's an oppertunity to
prove me wrong :-).

I hope you get a good response to your challenge. I know from my experience
that it can be difficult to build a very strong model that has realistic
funcions such as a real drive train and differentials. I look forward to
seeing the entries and if I get a chance, I'll try to participate too.

I don't mind giving advice in certain area's like how to keep the axles
attached to the chassis under heavy loads :-).

I'd also like to take this oppertunity to thank everyone for their responses.

Steve
