After the attempt Uwe commented: ‘I was a bit disappointed we couldn’t find something heavier to tow as it was a bit too easy! If anyone could lend us a heavier aircraft then please let us know.’

very impressive, i like the way it's a standard car aswell apart from the ballast weight.
i think ford/lang rover should try out the same stunt and see what happens.
