Since it started production in 1991, the JCB Fastrac has been continually evolving to meet new market demands. However, the original Fastrac principles remain firmly intact:
Full Suspension -- The JCB Fastrac is still the only draught tractor with full front and rear suspension. This system not only offers unparalleled ride comfort for both the operator and implement, but also improves traction without the need to add dead weight.
Disc brakes -- Any vehicle capable of high speed needs to be able to stop. Fastrac is no exception. With truck standard braking on all models you can be confident that you're going to stop when you need to, time and time again. The external disc brakes offer excellent heat dissipation and dramatically outperform the oil-immersed systems found on conventional tractors. The ABS system offers unrivalled control in all conditions.
Full chassis construction -- Another feature unique to Fastrac this means that unlike a conventional tractor the engine and transmission are not stressed, load-bearing components.
All of the above combined with mechanical power-assisted steering on the 3000 Series, 8250 and 7000 Series, allow Fastracs to travel at high-speed, up to 43mph where laws permit. In fact, in many territories the Fastrac is still the only true agricultural tractor legally capable of such high speed.
