I used to drive tractors some years back & at their fastest speed they bounce all over the road & the steering was all over the place, even on what seems a smooth & flat road.
I wouldn't like to be driving one at that speed, especially without a cab  :o

 :y Ah yes; an elegant solution to the age-old problem of poor crankcase ventilation and blocked breathers!  ;D

Percy piston and charlie crankshaft are not 'lovin`it'  ::)

I'm quite surprised that:

a) He didn't shut it down immediately (fairly obvious that something was amiss when half the engine flew out of the side with an almightly bang.
b) It carried on running for a few seconds, spewing bits of engine out of the gash in the side. I guess the right bank wasn't quite as mullered as the left.
