Abstract: A motion control system adapted for use on a vehicle having a prime mover with a power range and a speed range and at least one wheel. The preferred motion control system comprises a first control device that is operatively connected to the prime mover, a pump that is operatively connected to the prime mover and adapted to convey fluid, a second control device that is operatively connected to the pump, a fluid line that is adapted to convey fluid from the pump, a motor that is adapted to receive fluid from the fluid line and control the rotational speed of the at least one wheel, and a microprocessor that is adapted to provide a required amount of power and speed infinitely proportional through the power and speed range of the prime mover. A method for controlling the motion of a vehicle.
