Are you supposed to get a running start like that? Super Yanker stretches 30%, but it's no bungee cord. Good save on both the truck...hopefully the Cayenne is okay.

cool, but they're lucky that cord actually handled that running start. it could actually kill a couple people around if it broke out..

Truck blocked my way and was in trouble, this was only way to get him away other option was to wait, wait, wait...it was worth a try.
Because of streching there is much less stress to both cars, my hooks is installed firmly and truck hook was even better, rope has plenty of lbs reserve also.

Just to mention - Cayenne drives still OK, no problems at all.
This winter I installed new Nokian hakkapeliitta tires with studs and it drives like a monster through 0.5m snow. If you want very good tire for winter try finding this Nokian or Continental ContiIceContact BD, I have tried some US spec "winter tires" also and they realy isn't good.

AHHHHHH HAHAHHAH DUDE - you are sick. In US we are told to bring tension on the tow row first and then steady pressure. You my man, should be the counter argument to this method.

Ok . .now? now? OK FLOOR IT !!!! WOOOOOOOMMMMMM . . . . SNAP!!!!

After seeing this, the truck driver is lucky he escaped with his bumper still attached.

Reminds me of . . .
