Hard to tell from this angle,and with all the camouflage,but looks like it could be a Chamberlain 9G? If so,I seem to recall that it is good for around 60km/hr.Many moons ago I drove a tractor over 200kms on the main highway North from Midland,WA .......great way to see the country if you are in no hurry,but effectively a mobile road block.(Like SOME caravanners?). Everybody that eventually overtook seemed friendly,as they all tooted,and vigorously waved their arms around...Cheers

My mate does this, I tell him all the time they are a pain in the ring. In all honesty though, they are on the two way all the time, keep a good distance between each other and pull over to let traffic go past. Most driving is on country roads. They use very little fuel as they are not work (wish my cars would run as cheap. The club down make sure all tractors have full rego and the club carries insurance for all events.

Met these guys at Cloncurry, next stop was Winton. Said max speed was 70kph. They are raising money for Royal Flying Doctors. If you see them chuck a couple dollars their way.
