This is the 150mph tractor that Jeremy Clarkson should buy for his farm

The World's First 150 Mile Per Hour Tractor: A Glimpse into its Capabilities and Driver's Experience

Always a privilege, but there's something equally as satisfying about this chunky robustness of this thing I had to get Lucan sight inside here, there's some proper racing car stuff we've got digital screens. Tell me exactly what's going on, we've got a proper bucket seat that guy Martin will have had to squeeze himself into. Where we go? We've got three pedals of steering wheel and a gearshift. Pretty simple I guess, but then you think about it - you're not posing horsepower tractor; it's got fuel on roll kids, and this thing is actually rear-wheel drive, they're just sending that power to the back so maybe you get some wheel spin maybe you get oversteer in a vehicle this size seeing that it does still weigh five tonnes, the standard fast track tractor from JCB weighs 8 tonnes. So they've managed to strip three tonnes off it but still 5000 kilograms of mass to shift away - achieving 150 miles an hour in something that weighs that much is truly incredible.

I've been told the nought to 60 is around 9-10 seconds, so I guess this could outrun a simple hatchback or even a saloon car with you know, a decent sized engine and a proper piece of kit. The record accomplished by the tractor was a two-way average of 135 miles an hour, and a peak speed of a hundred and fifty three miles an hour, with bike racer Guy Martin at the wheel.

Four cars that this tractor is faster than include a Tesla Model 3 long range, a Nissan 300zx, a Honda s2000, and a Mini JCB.

Let's find out what this thing is actually like to drive. Guy Martin, thank you for talking to us; people may not think that you're a tractor man but you're actually quite into the mind. Don't chatter? Yeah, we're on time, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh you say failed farmer just BAM well, yeah, I have a lot on it, I Drive it a bit potatoes, general cultivation work now and then, yeah, cool match time take you drilling so it takes this thing is next level. And you're used to driving on lightweight sports bikes up to 200 miles an hour, so why is it like driving something that weighs this much at 150 miles an hour? Yeah, fair bit getting used to maybe cuz yeah attractive doors about 53 k an hour what's that, what's that about 40 mile an hour. It was like anyway, yeah, my cars rattling does that flat down that yeah, I'm getting a hundred mile an hour tractor, yeah, he took a bit again, you see what we did now.

What's the dawn if the wrongs in a hundred mile an hour tractor when you first then it? My house clean up in grim death, yeah, just a mile an hour traffic, what and do just get over and over and over again. We just got yet got immune to the speed, and and he was just it was just easy at the end, is it so odd yes fight on 5,000 horsepower but it is stable, so my boss Jeremy has bought the farm himself, you're serious coming up right?

And what what is it easy proper farmer, he walk Clark's. And of course he's gonna hammering it is God knows a lot right potatoes that's all I've heard so far, but I mean does he do everything goes in subcontracted does he bother using grim ease? I self-propelled, I have known it should know this, I'm just saying with Clarkson I am in a three rich former.

I don't know, I don't know you should know you should know Holly Clark she was kicking a bass fields would this be perfect for it there's a time and a place for a fast right? Yeah, Coulson, it's got a fan yeah general fan where this is great this is great um yeah this certain job that EXL a certain job, you can do a fan well then that's why it's such a varied workers work. Can you play at 150 miles an hour? You can't play 150 mile an hour and I don't know how many four is you'd pull and depends what land you're working and I don't know where these lands, Oxfordshire right okay what's that gonna be that heavy land I'll to the chip is it you know we should know how many.

Anyway, anyway, you'll learn all this mate, you're right generally get yourself on the best yeah, what a guy, a lesson for next time we'll learn all about basic farming practices especially blowing, got absolutely schooled there though that's it. The world's first 150 mile an hour tractor but we want you guys to decide shoo Jeremy get himself one of these I think he definitely deserves it.
