Default Rally in the valley Bridgnorth 2012

I attended the Rally in the valley this year and filmed Guy and Hal Debes pulling a Caterpillar using the drum of their Fowler ploughing engine The Chief.
They had a strain gauge to read the tonnage, which I believe, was somewhere near to 8 Tonnes (correct me if I’am wrong)
Sorry for the shaky film it was done using a compact camera.
Not sure how to link you tube clips onto TT.
Please feel free to link it

They do like testingThe Chief don't they, slight irony that the Cat had to pull them out of the mud.
