General Limit found

[Hellcat]

For climbing compacted snow hills on part-worn summer tyres



50m in 500m, but much steeper parts in between which I'd guess at 1/5 to 1/4. Had to get to the top with a push from some guys in the Discovery behind me. x2

I'd have made it to the top I think if I hadn't had to stop because the Jeep Cherokee blocked the road then couldn't get reversed up. :bang:

im awfully confused... what are those figures and what did you do.. drive up a snowy hill

 

[Hellcat]

They're gradients. You do have them in London don't you?

Basically there is a little track that leads upto Captain James Cook's monument which looks over the Tees valley. I drove the Bravo up there - with a little assistance. Snow tyres might have got me to the top unaided.

That was brave!! We had around 14" in Stokesley on sat. The Bravo has coped admirably though, certainly better than my low slung Alfa, which has been abandoned for a few days for mothers new 500

There's a fine limit between brave and stupid. Which side of the line this was - I'm not too sure.
