If one front wheel is impressive how about lifting both. 185,900 lbs uphill. Cool

Whoa. I don't know if I'd want to be standing so close to the track with those behemoths.

Don't they have big rig drags once a year at Woodburn drag strip? Maybe that should be the next place for a Cascade Crew gathering.

I bet the trucks are not much faster without the trailers. Wish they had races around here. Enumclaw would be a perfect host city.

Wow.

In a different video that Mustang spanks a Ferrari multiple times. That means that big truck is lightning quick. Amazing!

I think the Ferrari was actually faster, but the driver set up camp at the starting line, and didn't want to leave. The Ferrari was pulling the mustang back in, in both races I watched. The driver just couldn't get off the line without giving the Mustang a 2-3 car length lead.

Huge differance without trailers, even in regular highway trucks. I can pull a 6% grade weighing 80,000lbs at 28 - 30 mph. Empty weighing 28,000 lbs I can leave the cruise at 60 and never lose speed.
