Ain't nothing like a Groundhog!

摘要

During the early stages of development of JCB's golfing, farm and ground-keeping utility vehicle 'the Groundhog', it was discovered that the chain driving the prototype vehicle's rear wheels was wearing too rapidly. Apart from the rigours of off-road conditions, the chain has to operate in an aggressive environment where temperatures can reach 100℃, a problem caused by the drive chain's close proximity to the Groundhog's diesel engine.
