If there is any kind of brain work involved beyond a couple of clicks, people won't watch them.

A big " page cannot be found " is a big turnoff.

I bet it wasn't because there's a hug chunk missing from the link.

Big truck, big wheels, lots of traction, lots of power, no topspeed and no handeling. And that's all i gotta say about that.

You know I'm getting sick of this, it's always the same old same old with you guyz. Let me analyze the videos for you, because you clearly are unable todo it for yourself.

As you can see the truck has lots of traction (bigwheels) and lots of low end power like all trucks do, why do trucks have lots of low end power... you figure it out.

Because it has allot of low end power and lots of traction the truck shoots away like it's nothing but when it comes to building up speed, forget it. The race is too short for the other to catch up but they're on the tail of the truck right before end.

Judging from the road markers they're not goin all that fast, tops 60 - 70 mph. not really something I would call fast.

And ofcourse not to forget that they're standing still on a highway. Too bad nobody is driving there that night. Hopefully one night somebody will be driving there and ram those lewsers from behind. My only hope is that nothing happens to the driver.

TO sum it up. Yawn. Make the track a bit longer see what happens.

i know lots of trucks that could own me to 30 or 40, some to 60 or 70, none that own me to any speed past 100 (barring some sort of lightening). It's just the layout, and a lightening may keep up with my boxster to 60, but to 100 or 120, he gets owned.
