The way the device in the video is constructed, balance is virtually impossible.

We used to do that at some of our MOAL meets here. With the clutch and reverse pedal situated as they are, it is pretty easy to get a T to balance on a teeter-totter device. Many of the guys got real good at it. It was a timed contest. Sorry I don't have any pictures to share.
