RRSport on 43-45 degree incline @ Moegatle

I took my Rangie up a 43 degree incline, that turns into almost 45 degrees as the left front wheel lifts. The traction is amazing!

Check out the video, more clips to follow!

Great video - yes you are mad! A little bit of extra tilting on the camera makes it look steeper, but it's still steep.

One word of advice - please close your windows next time, if you rolled you would probably lose your hands/arms. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

Laughing Wow - that's steep!! Much better to watch than be the one driving - or can I borrow your car to try that!

Can you do that without the lockers?

Which is more important the rear locker or the tyres?

If you look at the less fortunate souls who attempted 'Koos se Klip' in the following clip, I don't know if I would attempt it with anything other than a Range Rover or a Disco3 with lockers & proper tyres!!

Natural selection! (It was a Defender!)

Awesome traction from the D3 TR is just the bus, to stop and restart like that Bow down Porsche Cayenne S Diesel 66 Plate
