The guy in the Dodge likely managed (inadvertently, probably) to get his tires back into where he already laid down rubber and got somewhat better traction. Or, maybe he actually let off the throttle a little to get that traction. When both rigs are spinning, it only boils down to which one ends up getting a little better grip.

yeah when ur pulling someone i think traction is one of the biggest keys to winning...i pulled a dmax on 38's easily...i have 46" tires...i realy don't think the 46's will break loose.

That's true. I think hooking trucks back to back doens't proove a who has the better truck or bigger power. It helps, but it ain't the biggest reason why a guy wins hooking.

Out of the numerous vids out there, I've yet to see a Ford win any tug-O-war contest angainst a Cummins. I have never seen a Duramax even enter into one of those contests against either of the two. Maybe those Chevy guys are smarter than they look................naaaaaaaa
