Very cool. I am trading in my trelleborgs for steel wheels!

I am sure Trudeau would say it has too much emissions

Takes a few seconds for steam engine, but once it starts there is no stopping it.

Always herd that if the money that has been spent on R&D on the internal combustion engine had been spent on R&D and modernizing the steam engine we would all be running steam.

Weight and leverage?

Right...so where in the rules does it say a drawbar hitch has to be 18 inches above the ground. Maybe the engineer on the steam engine is just a lot smarter; even if he probably was 80 years old..
