I used to run a trackhoe,all kinds of equipment, dozers,drill rigs, 28 cylinder train. I bet they turned the engine up, and the hydraulic pump up, there,s alot of tricks you can do with a trackhoe. Say you need to get to a area,and there,s a 20 ft. deep pit, you just boom down get 1 track in the air, then track forward and boom down while swinging the boom to keep up with tracking. That way all you need is 3 feet of land and you can put the track hoe anywhere. There alot of fun to operate, but gets borring after a while.
