Duke, I'm sure you wouldn't give any odds or much of a bet for me to "prove" I could flip a "standard" tractor by doing something stupid like hooking to the top link. What odds would you give me if I listened to your advice that "after 1940 all the major makes had safe drawbar design to make rearing up impossible unless something stupid was done to leverage the tractor to make it rear up". Would you drive the tractor beliveing that? If you believe that, you aren't gonna be able to get to the clutch and throttle in that 1/2 to 3/4 of a second needed. I wouldn't be able to collect on the bet, but you sure would pay dearly. Sorry, I'm not trying to insult you. I'm just suggesting that when we say things like that we tell the whole story.
